About Me
My name is Crystalbear. I am an avid video game fan and enjoy playing all kinds... even some mature rated games even though I'm currently underage.
In other places, I am known as Hamstarzchan, Crystalnorn (without the -), Crystalsquirrel and Greenfang.
My most favorite game series include the Ace Attorney (Phoenix Wright, Apollo Justice) series, Pokemon, most of Rareware's titles and plenty more. I am also still a fan of the anime series Tottoko Hamutarou. :P I don't really have many made up characters that I use here. Although my 'furry self' here is a Raichu wearing a blue suit. :P
As of now, my main comic concerns are Turnabout Amok and Crimson Scars. When it comes to hand drawn comics, I'll be spending most of my time with Crimson Scars. Any other promised hand drawn comics by be will have to wait.

No, all three Growlithes are boys. Thanks for asking though.
The Cast page also details what genders the cast are.

Yes, we're back to the double pages. Also, be expecting A LOT more double pages to come
up. When it comes to fitting in panels, double pages just seem to work better. So, sorry
about that.
...I'm not so fond of the shading here...

I'd like to apologize for the exceptionally long wait, and I especially feel guilty
because I had said that there would be more pages during the summer break. But hey, we all
get busy.
Le Jelleh and I have been rather busy lately, especially Le Jelleh. He's busy with stuff. And as for me, well I just got back into school. Even then, I've been busy for awhile now anyway.
So here's the new page for your reading enjoyment...

Image says it all...
Also yes, I can be that lazy with my crappish drawings.

***No, the chapter is still not finished yet.***
Nearly half way through my progress, Le Jelleh and I had decided that perhaps serializing CS wasn't the most organized of ideas, especially since the idea came right out of the blue so suddenly. So instead of making a new chapter every month, we're going to try to do things on a weekly basis or something along those lines. Don't worry too much, we're hoping that there won't be long delays like before.
Also expect a lot more double pages coming up. I'm hoping to eventually request a new layout template, one that might allow more space for better viewing results of double pages...

Edit: Okay, so it stretches out of the boundry in the worst way possible, dang...
...Yeah.
I decided to try a couple of new things, mostly 'two pages' at a time, shading and proper paneling. Now don't get the wrong idea,
I wasn't doing this after the last fiasco about the story vs the art. This is actually practice for a future comic work I'll be
doing at another site, which is still a long way ahead. However since this took me awhile to do, don't expect me to do this
for every single page I do. Anyhow, is the text readable? I sure hope so.
And yes, it stretches out of the white boundry. I may be changing the layout skin for that reason though. In fact, I may even be
up for suggestions on that part.
Besides that, I've been thinking about also offering icons for the fans to use. Le Jelleh has allowed me to make icons from his
pages which should be good. As for my pages, well I dunno. xD Well if you'd also like to suggest a panel from any page that might
make a good icon, just give a holler.

Yep, last prologue page. Expect the chapter 1 title page to be up tomorrow.
And yes, just as everyone had predicted, she is a bad step mom. =P

Well, I've read one book written by the same author.
I'll admit though, this story was actually inspired by Pan's Labyrinth. You'll see someday.

So anyhow, I got a few more news.
First off, there was a time several months ago where I asked several people who owned their own Pokemon webcomics here, and asked for their opinions about a Pokemon forum for all of their comics, where people can go to one place to talk about them. Well I never really did started to develop the forum, as I've been far too busy lately. Also, I'm hoping to get a new computer soon, so until then, I've decided to put many things on hold. So, I'm sorry if I've been keeping you guys waiting for too long, or otherwise disappointed you. :/
Secondly, for those who had been following my 'The Wandering, Their Dwindling World' Creatures fancomic (if there was anyone who followed it...), you'll now notice that I've deleted that comic. After much thought and after brushing up on my Norse mythology studies, I've decided that it would probably be better if I completely redesigned that comic and make it more truer to Norse mythology itself. The comic was originally supposed to be in an 'alternate universe of Norse mythology', something which the original desgin did not do much of. Well, I'm sure you guys don't really care about it anyhow. It's gone now.
So, you are now up to speed.
And yes, I realize that the shading and the Growlithes have been turning up very crappily as of late. Though you'll be lucky to hear that this is one of the last pages you'll see of them in this chapter. Perhaps next time, I'll improve on their appearances a bit. Also the shading sucks because I'm lazy. >_> Ahaha, I fail.
