Chapter: Comic

This page took me a veeeeerrry long time, maybe it’s the coloring, I’m not sure, but enjoy!

Oh, thought some of you might like this, here is what Finn looks like before I make him look all crazy

SheepDog

I think this is the most badass Scout has ever looked.
- Scotticus
  
  and he’ll only get more mad down the road
  - mandaara
    
    little bit attracted to badass psycho Scout. not gonna lie =P amazing work Scott. oh and Pizzly is delightfully squishy and bear-y
Marissa.

Awesomeeee!

Grand work, Scott!
Pizzly is super adordable.
And Finn is unspeakably cranky. >:[
- Marissa.
  
  PS, Finn is ALMOST handsome in that link in the blurb.
  You can tell he’s crazy by the scarf he’s wearing. ;x
- Scotticus
  
  To see Finn happy? I don’t think that day will come
Brigand

Your, not You’re. Otherwise I’m quite happy with the new Scott Crossing installment.
- Scotticus
  
  Oh wow, I can’t believe I made that mistake, fixing now…

Dude, that last panel is so fucking bad ass! Good job man!

SO
DAMN
EPIC.
i do think that would be a sweet ass tattoo to have… hey scott do you have any tats?
- Scotticus
  
  I have a few tattoos, I have an unfinished quarter sleeve on my right arm, and an unfinished sleeve of feathers on my left (which I’ve been adding on to for about… 5 years now?)
  
  And a bunch of boring ones on my back shoulders and lower arms… I’m too sporadic with this stuff.
Dani

Angry!Scout is kind of delicious. And I really, really dig the effects in the last panel. The time it took to colour this was definitely worthwhile!
- Scotticus
  
  LOVE the new avatar
  - Dani
    
    sankyou! I drew it so it’s a big compliment coming from you, bahah!
    - Scotticus
      
      Awesome! If I remember correctly, you said you wanted a tattoo?
glueberrypie

No kidding, just the other day I fantasized about skin feathers popping out of my skin. And here we are. I mean, those are just feathery feathers that emerged from tattoos, and mine were just going to be wings of awesome. But still. Pretty close.
- Scotticus
  
  Pfft, I wish everyday my tattoos would come alive.
Liz

Yeah, as Brigand said, it should be “Your” and not “You’re” in panel 2. It really drives me nuts when you let grammar/spelling errors mar the totally badass and incredibly awesome artwork in your strips. Your art is, seriously, SO GOOD – it deserves text perfection.
- Scotticus
  
  Sorry, I’m my worst proofer when it comes to writing, normally I would spot such errors (proof that I have a really long way to go yet). But thank you for the kind comments, I’m really happy you like everything.
- Some guy
  
  Well, in the Artists defence, bad grammar and spelling is ok if it is in dialogue. It becomes Characterization.
  - nick
    
    for some reason I am reminded of a scene where a character corrects grammar that is spoken, like they just knew.
nick

I figured out why it took so long.

Because of awesomeness… duh.
- Scotticus
  
  haha, or that I have a lot to learn yet, but hopefully awesome can come later
OutLawRed

O_O sweet jimmy!
badassingly epic… may have to buy when it hits paperback. the art is too good not to look at in person.
is it wrong to want feathers inked on my arm now?
matt

awesome/epicness meter overload commence fainting of anticipation in 5…4…3…2…
Kylica

By no means take this as an insult, because the whole page is epic. But when I first saw Scout in the last panel, my first thought was a conglomeration of were-chicken and Big Bird.
- Scotticus
  
  haha, luckily feathers are just one thing he does (were-chicken is only the surface)
  - AristolochiaGialla
    
    ::snicker::…werechicken.
cahoots

Are those supposed to be feathers? Everyone’s saying feathers, but they always looked more like leaves in autumn to me. Either way, sweet art is sweet and serious Scout is serious. Gotta say Finn is my favorite character so far, though… he’s a lot like me in his curmudgeonly caring demeanor and love of sharks.
Mixmasta

Scott, these comics make me draw feathers on my shoulder and arm and wish I wasn’t too chicken to get it all tattooed on.
- Scotticus
  
  haha you should! I generally fall asleep while getting mine, it’s not bad at all
AristolochiaGialla

It makes me giggle that they’re all like:
“Okay, I’m done intimidating innocent bystanders in order to make you mad enough to have it out, now give me a minute to find that comical weapon I discarded and then we can go at it like cats in a sack, yeah?” “Sure, but don’t take too long, as I plan on ripping your head off.” Of course, could be completely off with the subtext, but that’s half the fun!
WnxMace

I agree, i think leaves before feathers
- Scotticus
  
  eh, they can be whatever really.
Arctictux

Dude now I need a situation where I can say “I guess I need to pick up my awesomely dapper shark”
Radzynn

I been following you comic from the start, this and Nerf This, I dont normally read comics but yours keep me waiting. So thank you for the 3mins of joy I get every weekday reading your work.
Fish

WHOA full Black Swan style with the feathers coming out of human skin… Only Scout isn’t a nut job and it’s really happening because he’s AWESOME!!!
Cerberus

Dude, that last panel is AWSOME. You have so much improved in these comics of yours. Keep this up:D Oh one question, I was wondering how you do the drawings of your comic. First on paper I guess and then scan it. But the next step is something I have been wondering. Do you draw the lines with a tablet (if this is the case, my tablet sucks) or do you draw lines with mouse clicks? Thanks in advance Scott
Deaygo

Damn awesome! Absolutely love it, can’t wait for the next one!
Kero

Haha, in the right situation Finn’s threat doesn’t sound like such a bad idea…
csegbert

In Scout’s own words; Hoshit!

SUDDENLY.

FEATHERS. LOTS OF THEM.
- Scotticus
  
  GALLONS of feathers
Locke

He’s molting right in the middle of the room. How embarrassing.
Jety Lefr

You’d never know he attacks people with blood thirsty aquatic life forms!
gordonfreeman

I am wondering what happened to sparticus does he go all werecokateil too?
QuantumSanity

Poor Pizzly! D:
Moses

oh, oh my. this is intense and wonderful and lovely and perfect. i was upset i had to wait so long, but now that it’s here, i’m so okay with it. my friend just found a comic that he drew (forever ago) of him being an adorable punk boy and fighting all these people out to take over him. reminded me of this comic until he told me the title “will vs the world.” do all artistic guys go through this phase of drawing a cartoon of themselves fighting everyone? yours is certainly more stunning than most, i must admit. kudos, scott.
cahoots

Congratulations! You’ve won! ZOMGNOWAI!!! (sorry… this ad is just popping up on every single page and starting to drive me nuts…)
- Scotticus
  
  Sorry, I need to contact the ad publisher and get them to ban that specific ad.
Really Zach

Dude, seriously amazing. I’m really looking forward to the next few strips. your updates are always awesome.
http://scoutcrossing.net/animal-undies/ RWBII

I love this comic more and more. First Pizzly, then the whole shark line. Perfect.

  Amazing Scott.
  - Scotticus
    
    Thank you, it seriously makes my day to know you enjoy it
ladysoosoo1000

Dude, this is such a bad ass comic. Totally love it!

  Awesome, thank you! I’m really happy you like it so far

  but longer fur and white
  - Tylar
    
    Those are hilarious. Kudos for taking the time to find that.
Sydney

Duuuuuude, Scout is gonna kick Finn’s assssss!
- Scotticus
  
  haha probably
Trydeth

Finn, you make the term “Badass” look like an understatement. Another amazing page! It has stirred up a want to do fan art of your beloved Finn Callaghan!
- Scotticus
  
  It’s his eyes… those “I sleep 1 hour a day” eyes.
  - Trydeth
    
    Indeed. Mind if I was to do a little fan art of Finn here? His… “Finnesse” entices me very much and he seems like someone fun to draw.
Delfiner

Coming back to re-read this strip, I noticed the Title…and began laughing like a mad-man. My room-mate is now 90% sure I’m plotting to kill him, instead of the usual 65. Keep this up, I’m enjoying your work.
MudHorse

Hey! I only just discovered your site. I Just wanted to say that I love the colouring and particularly the experimentation you carried out in the earlier strips. I’m also very impressed at your ability to update so consistently.

Forgive me for seeming dense, but I have to ask – is this a deliberate satire of Scott Pilgrim, or is it a sincere work?
- Scotticus
  
  No no, your question isn’t remotely dense, but to be honest, it’s not a satire of SP, the the first 40 or so pages of Scout are pretty terrible (well they all might be terrible, but I hope the newer updates are less terrible, I’m still going through some serious growing pains). I hope as the next few chapters flesh out, you’ll see that this isn’t a modern love story, and while Scout’s name is in the title, this comic will revolve around Finn, and Penny just as heavily. Thank you for the kind words, I’m happy you like this so far
  - Tylar
    
    You are way too critical of your own work, Scott. I’ve been following this comic since it only had 15 or so pages and it’s always been awesome. Furthermore, I doubt he was mistaking it for a modern love story like Scott Pilgrim, more that the whole “vs. the World” part of it bears some similarity to the idea of having to defeat the x-number (forgot how many) of kings your comic promises that it seems Scout will have to fight. That and the whole fantasy and indie music scene elements that you’ve worked into this comic. I imagine you probably got some inspiration from SP, but I wouldn’t call this a satire or a rip-off at all. I just call this awesome with it’s shark club and tattoos with special powers is just awesomely creative with fantastic artwork.
Nat

I guess Finn’s going to see those tattoos now. He seems like a great Chessmaster.
Although I think it’s strangely sweet that Scout’s sticking up for Pizzly Bear. Just because he’s a formerly provoked pet of a guitar-wielding twat ($1 for Ruggles’ jar, whoops) doesn’t mean he deserves to be skinned!
missteatime

I’ve been following all your comics for a few weeks now, and this strip is the pinnacle of awesome. Called my housemate in here, who hasn’t seen a single one of your comics before and we had a big girly swoony moment to that last frame of Scout. He’s simply that cool.
banjo2E

I came here expecting Team Fortress 2 and Animal Crossing.

I was pleasantly surprised.

This story is awesome.
Kathryn

Aww, I almost feel sorry for poor little Pizzly Bear.
I’m really loving watching these characters develop, it’s really interesting; and the main reason I’m saying this is because, I swear, Finn has so much badassery it’s amazing XD
Thatsepic

I love your work man, but I’m having serious with drawls man.
Is their some kind of fiber for artistic-ness.
You know, to keep you regular

  haha thanks for writing, and thank you for the kind words, there will be an update this week, it’s half way colored, I’m hopeful I can get it posted tomorrow
shavedllama

Just popped in here in the comments section to say that I’m really loving the development of both the characters and your drawing style. Great attention to detail, I just had to go back through the comic and look closely at everything again. Awesome awesome awesome.
Corsair114

Man, not that I want anything to happen to Pizzly Bear, but I bet a set of undies like that would be AWESOME comfortable.
Alice Mai

What the Fuck?! The feathers sperad and become real?
sic

thats my new ultimative threat. Have to remember that for later conversations…
