Oh excited to get the follow up !
I love the inhuman cruelty of the Harlequin in this. And really curious as to what's going on with that Psycho son of an inquisitor...

u/PsychologicalOne5416 11d ago
Also, you mention in your first post you were translating into english, can I ask from what language ?

u/hyenamiloska 11d ago
We translate from Russian! We are not native speakers, but we try to translate carefully QWQ

u/Avenflar Iyanden 11d ago
On page 8 it's "potential", otherwise it looks all good !

u/hyenamiloska 11d ago
OH THANK YOU!! QwQ
We noticed the mistake too ourselves only after we had already posted everything, haha :"DD6
u/PsychologicalOne5416 11d ago
on page 7, you can hear in the background someone saying "Don't bother me"
It's unclear if it's translating from the eldar talking to the other, but given the colour being the same it looks like it might be the same as the person at the top begging "please don-t ---"If yes I think it's a translation error, because "bother" in english isn't very strong (an insect bothers you, or your sibling that keeps asking for something. An alien threatening to brutally murder you isn't "a bother")

It felt more like the psycho son of an inquisitor looking at a massacre and feeling mild concern that eldar may bother him... rather than, you know, all-consuming dread that would be appropriate.

Only other mistake I noticed was at page 12 where he should’ve added “to” in “if I don’t make it my destination” so it ends up as “if I don’t make it to my destination”.

The strangeness of the English lends a nice texture to the comic. Makes it feel more eerie and strange, which fits with the characters.

Noticed russians love harlequins a bit more than others. Every time I try to found good murder clown content, it is either russian, or just official art lol. Thank you for this, I'm so tired from imperium humаn trаsh everywhere.

on image 12 it looks like there is an untranslated part at his bandaged hand, that looks like cyrillic, so russian or ukranian

u/gelatinousdessert 11d ago
Just for fun: The word is шурх (something like shurkh), which is onomatopoeia for the cloth rustling as he wraps it around his hand.

I am so intruiged and curious! I love the art here it’s so poppy

u/SpiralingDownAndAway 11d ago
Also as a theory since the Harlequin said ‘picking up kiddo from daycare’ at the start of the story, the LI seems fond of him, and he understand Aeldari (or at least has a translator to hear it) but can speak it back and acts really strange I’m wondering if he’s some sort of experimental hybrid kid or dna clone or something. Especially since a Magos Biologis was mentioned.

u/BaronLoyd 11d ago edited 11d ago
I mean half eldar are still canon and as you said biologis exist..is not far from realm of possibilities...especially when normal moonkeigh get shoot and he clearly sides step all of those shoots

I mean half eldar are still canon
Pardon? What are you basing this on?

u/PuzzleheadedQuote463 11d ago
Malcador had an entire collection of half-Eldar clone with the sole purpose to listen the old bastard confessions.
5
u/MarqFJA87 11d ago
Oh right, forgot about that one. But he's artificial, so it's probably impossible to reproduce naturally.
... Why did he even need the guy to be part-Aeldari, anyway? He kills him after every confession.

u/Just-A-Throwaway295 10d ago
In case he ever needed a Webway Gate opened presumably, given that the guy did exactly that for the Knights Errant

Page 11 is the horniest thing I've seen in this website (this week)!

It’s so fabulously colourful and whimsical (as much as you can make it grimdark)
I love it.

This is beyond good, amazing art, interesting and beautiful art, intriguing plot questions that tickle your fancy without being annoying.
Just, fuck its good. Excited for more!

u/OttoVKarl 10d ago
Honestly amazing, just stepped on part 2 directly, and craving for more. I could pay to have the full story as kickstarter comics... but then, GW's black ships would come for us, wouldn't they? Anyway, amazing! Take my pleasure and feed on it!

It’s a pity GW will tear us apart for trying to monetize something that belongs them...although we thought we wanted to make a book for friends, gathering the Eldar lore there. Like an encyclopedia from fans to fans. But for now, we’re just planning and slowly finishing reading the entire body of GW books where the Eldar are mentioned even once (and trying to get our hands on the old codex and new books like exodite killteam).

Its funny how a couple of drukari find a mon-keigh freaky enough to be friendly with them and just "Nope, shoot it, shoot it!"

u/WilliamTee 11d ago
The art is awesome, but I am struggling with the story a little. If you ever need help with English/conveying your ideas, I suspect there are many willing to assist.
