#24 “Shadow”
I think you’ve all been pretty patient, and I can’t wait any more… so here’s the new page a little while early!
So, without further delay, meet Shadow!

Shadow the Demon, cool. Now that’s a name.
I see her more like a Lovecraftian ghoul. An adorable Lovecraftian Ghoul.
I think she’s more like an imp. She’s not possessed, in league with, or drawing power from any sort of dark force… so, she’s not a demon. In spite of her rather softened devil tail.
Meh, might not be a demon, but she might have some distant demon ancestry… I’m hoping for succubus 😛
… as stupid as that is without Timothy getting turned into some kinda incubus to even things out due to well, mythos reasons.
She is soooo adorable, and Timothy is soooo confused!
Heh, isn’t he though? And she certainly is!
Sorry to ruin a moment, but do her eyes bulge out of her head or something for that kind of lighting?
You’re right, that was perhaps a bit too much… although I did want her eyes to catch some of that light. Fixed a bit now.
Yeah I totally understand the desire to draw the things you want to draw at least.
Glad I checked early, thanks Brandon!
Thighs tho.
She has them? Or she needs them?
That last panel is poster-worthy. (or at least desktop wallpaper-worthy) I love the way you have her framed in moonlight.
Originally, this reveal page was ONLY going to be a full-page poster of her, but plans changed slightly in the comics leading up to this one. I still managed a pretty good shot though.
But wasn’t the little miss actually named [REDACTED]?
Lol No, not anymore! I no longer have to play that game. *phew*
Now I just have to dodge Sock questions! XD
so how about them socks???????? XD
What socks?
Exactly the point. What socks? Where did they all go?
To Shadow! 😉
So they didn’t get sent to her boss or sold for money, but are all still in Shadow herself…. so… she really does eat them?
Haha, no, but she is in possession of them…. someplace.
Wait, why does your comment say redacted?
He’s just joking around.
holy wow those legs, damn sexy demoness there
Lol now, now, hold your horses! She’s still only a child… XD
Now, when she grows up…. 😉
OH, nice name, by the way!
Yay progress
Funnily enough, I think this is the page with the least progression so far… but heck, it’s got a reveal!
Ooh nice lighting. And yay early-ish update!
Without her hood on those ponytails of her’s look like they should be, eh whats the right word… mobile/expressive something along those lines. They also look like they could be detachable like chiyo-chans.
Lol Clip-on Ponytails? Interesting.
And yes, they emote somewhat. This is a cartoon, after all.

Lol! Ohhh. That’s what he was talking about!
So far as we know, the above sequence (and others) occurs entirely in Osaka’s imagination. Chiyo-chan’s pigtails are not detachable, nor do they allow her to fly, nor do they control her mind.
…So far as we know. 🙂
So she put her hood on just to take it off for the name reveal?
She’s had it on the entire time… this is the first time she’s shown him her full identity.
I mean, except during the introduction, but that takes place years from their first encounter.
ooops, sorry misread that it looked like she was pulling her hood up in the second to last panel to me.
No prob!
The cutest strip yet, excellent work. Tim does look confused and you’re not gonna dodge the sock questions, cause I want to know like everyone else. Why did she take the socks? =^.^=
Because reasons! *hands on hips*
Not gonna be that easy, spill it. Why did she take the socks. And that pose does not intimidate me, now spill it what’s with the sock pilfering? =^.^=
Ha. Ha.
We’ll get it out of you some how. =^.^=
Yes, in the eventual flow of the story! ;-D
Then we’ll have to use a little patience to find out. But I can’t wait. LOL
We are of the mind that Shadow suits the young lady perfectly. Please keep up the good work.
Thanks! Will do!
So i can see i was definitly right when I say tim will slip the picture in piece and give a part to Shadow. XD
When everyone is guessing, somebody is bound to get it right eventually! XD Of course, this may not be the end for the photograph.
It may still have a part to play!
Finally we have her name. Not a bad name either.
It does fit her quite well, I think!
