    The color palette absolutely demands a matte finish. Yes.

    @Warren:
    How many pages is this story going to run?
  2.  (1677.2)
    Many hundreds.

    I love Freak Angels for all the obvious reasons. Great story. Magnificent art. Promising publishing scheme. It's the last that I would like to ask a question about.

    As a longtime tpb holdout buyer, I really like the idea of being able to keep up with the book while I wait for the trade to come out. My question is this: Is there a chance that other avatar books could come out in a similar method ? For instance... I get a subscription to the tpb of Narcopolis that comes with an access code to a page/viewer that would show me the monthly comic while I wait for said product to be available. This service could even come with a small fee and I would still jump all over it.

    I realize that the logistics of such an undertaking would be daunting to say the least. I was just wondering if this idea had been discussed or if it was just decided an impossibility for some reason.

    At any rate, thank you for some of the best Friday mornings I have ever had.

    Will the archive episodes be kept online after the collection has been released?

    How is the story structured (in terms of blocks of episodes, etc.)?

    Am I allowed to ask questions?

    I would imagine not.

    Will FREAKANGELS' story take readers outside of post-devastation England, or is pretty much the rest of the world uninhabitable thanks to Mysterious Disaster X?

    Why was a shojo manga-influenced look chosen for this series?

    Would the best description of FREAKANGELS' society be that of a semi-communal agrarian village slowly undergoing technological regression?
  7.  (1677.7)
    Hehe, I guess I am slightly shojo influenced (I certainly like reading them)... I think I was chosen because Warren was looking for an Japanese/European hybrid style, and I fit the bill. I guess Warren will confirm/deny/elaborate if necessary.
  8.  (1677.8)
    Whatever the reason, Warren made the perfect choice.

    @Paul Duffield:

    I am not a great fan of shojo style, but you do a lovely job producing well-composed, clean, yet detailed and inhabited art in FREAKANGELS. I am enjoying it immensely and I thank you and Warren (and, heh, Avatar Press too!) for making it available to us in this form. I am looking forward to a TPB, unless I strike it rich and can afford a ginchy hardcover. . . .

    @erudite_ogre
    It would probably be more accurate to say I'm Josei influenced if that means anything to you?
    Take a look at these delicious pages that had a profound impact on my art when I first saw them: clicky-clicky
    (although it's the beautiful Shoujo layouts that I'm most influenced by rather than style, which isn't really evident in Freakangels).
  11.  (1677.11)
    Last year it was said that there would be five pages a week yet now that it is out everything is plainly structured for six page episodes. This is something I'm in favor of but it does make me wonder, did you have to go back and redo the "shitload of pages already done" to make everything fit right? It seems impossible that this comic with all its dialog and detail could ever fit into five page episodes.
  12.  (1677.12)
    No, the length was just misreported a few times.

    @Warren
    Doing a comic online for free is brilliant especially since FREAKANGELS(which i read today from episodre one to ten today, only pausing when the boss was walking by my screen) is pretty good in my opinion, do you find you have much time for these kind of projects. Im going to make a guess here and say that its only really at the start of the comic, and we could expect a decent length story line?(sorry more of a rhetorical Q.)
    Anyway getting off the point... Could we see more of this type of thing depending on your interest/time/permission from X-publisher?(if thats needed)
  14.  (1677.14)
    I've thought about launching a second webcomic at some point. Totally dependent on time -- time I don't have right now.

    Time is always the main factor it seems. Thanks for the quick response, and hopfully we will see more... Time permitting!

    Forgive if this has been asked before but by roughly how much has the sea-level risen in Freakangels? I was looking at this site that imposes seas level rises superimposed onto Google Maps and I'm guessing around 10 metres or so?

    Is there a specific theme (or set of themes) you're exploring with FreakAngels?

    Or is the entire thing just a moral-less free-for-all balls-to-the-wall expression of your wildest science fiction and Marxist excesses?

    Because the latter thing is what I'm hoping you're shooting for.

    LOL.

    Warren Ellis, exploring his absolute wildest maniac ideas?

    This should be fuckin GREAT; IF that is what FreakAngles is.

    So, it's running for many hundreds of pages.. this is A Good Thing. Does that mean that the ending is already written? Is there a definate end in sight, or will Freakangels run as long as there are interesting stories to be told in this particular universe?

    No.

    It'll run for as long as it runs. Don't look for the end.

    @ Mr. Ellis

    If there is another webcomic, I hope it involves space travel. You're passion for it shines so well in your work. :)
