The Jaegers are pretty much my favourite thing in any webcomic ever. Phonetic accents and silly hats combined are too great a force to resist!

Not gonna lie, those three Jagers are pretty high on my favorite character list. *g* (They count as one character, naturally.)

Dammit, now you really are making me want to reread the whole thing from the beginning. Which I don't have time to do! ;____;

Did you remember Airman Higgs' suspicious-in-retrospect rescue of Klaus? Or how completely different Von Zinzer was at first? Or the first instance of the calming pie? Or how that early, full-of-lies story about the Heterodyne Boys and the Dragon from Mars that completely incidentally mentions that there is a secret Monkfish lab in Castle Heterodyne's basement? Or those occasional mentions that Tarvek might have a thing for pretty dresses? Or Lars? And, hell, I'd forgotten Anevka entirely, that last bit with her in it was kind of heartbreaking. But real life takes precedence! I understand. Reluctantly.

...or that "Agatha Heterodyne unleashing her Battle Circus upon Klaus Wulfenbach" in the author bio from volume one or those rumors on the airship that Von Pinn might be Lucrezia or that the Slaver Wasps in volume three obeyed Agatha when she yelled at them to stop or that--I'll stop talking now.

I remember . . . some of these things! NOT ALL OF THEM. (Tarvek's pretty dresses I had EMPHATICALLY forgotten.) I remember Anevka! And Lars!

. . . but none of this I remember. AUGH.

I will admit, occasionally I go to TVtropes and read through the page in a desperate attempt to at least halfway remind myself of bits.

(Tarvek's pretty dresses I am emphatically remembering. It's just such a random character trait! The morally-ambiguous Chronic Backstabber designs pretty dresses! I eagerly await the day we see this in action. Eagerly.)

I KNOWWWW. Good god, the Foglios are masters at planning ahead. I am still waiting for that time-travel thing from the first volume to happen. Still waiting.

And, further pimping: I wrote you a few days ago about "Agatha H. and the Airship City", a novelization by Phil and Kaja of the first three graphic novels, coming out from Night Shade books next month. My husband did the cover for the book and posted about it on his blog yesterday. http://kiddography.blogspot.com/ called "Agatha H. and the Airship City, A Navel History"

He explains that the original version of the cover showed a lot more skin (Agatha's midriff) but the publisher decided he wanted the book to sell to a general audience, so he had to cover her up.

I remember you telling about that cover! Goodness, that is rather a bit of skin. I'm not surprised the publisher decided to change it. But it is a lovely cover nonetheless.
