[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I assume Maya's parents were casualties of an unfortunate viewing of Old Yeller, but no one made the connection?

Didn't she tell Alejandro at the church that the wedding was the first time the black eye goo thing had happened? I would think if it had happened before, Alejandro would've known.

Definitely wondering if Claire and Peter's blood can do the same thing that Adam/Takezo's can. And trying not to think about bits and pieces of Claire and Adam able to live on removed from their bodies because that means that somewhere in Claire's living room is a zombified pinkie toe growing a long ass nail and just YUCK all over to that.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You know, now I wonder whether the people who make the comics get paid anything at all. It's promotional, right?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'd assume they get paid for their work, but that they get no additional residuals based on pageviews.

Maybe it will regenerate a whole new Claire off the end of it. One that's allowed to date and cheerlead.

I would have assumed that too until I found out that not a single person involved was paid for making the Office or BSG webisodes.

Well, that sucks! Still, the Office & BSG people are already on salary for the TV shows. The people drawing the comics are additional staff, right? If all they are doing is the online comics, then surely they are getting paid for it?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

According to the Ron Moore interview linked a few days ago, they were paid to produce the webisodes (after refusing to produce them for free). They just weren't credited or paid residuals on them.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I thought it said they were supposed to get something for producing them, then got nothing and it was like, "Suck on it creative people!"

I could be misremembering though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I could be misremembering though.

No, it's what Jess said. They weren't going to be paid. Moore threw a fit. So they were paid, but they weren't credited. And Moore said, "Fine, you can't have the webisodes." And the production company basically went into their offices and took them (which Moore said was within their rights).

Ah. This is where I got the "Suck it creatives" from.
