Snow by Night

Snow-by-Night joins the fray in Chapter 5 Page 21. She’s a vicious fighter. Laurent and thugs beware!

And now Wednesday’s riddle. Enjoy!

My home is adrift, and my food is aloft.

I could be a prince, but I die every night.

Here’s Thursday’s riddle:

I have an inside and an outside

but a single corner you’ll never find.

I look the same from every angle

Whether made of wood, cloth, or hind.

Did Blaise just bring a manitou to a knife fight? Snow-by-Night arrives to save Blaise and Jassart on Chapter 5 Page 20.

In celebration of the release of The Hobbit, Snow by Night is hosting Riddle Week this week. Each day, I’ll pose a different riddle. To see the answer vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics, where I will post the solution in addition to pencils for the current page.

Monday’s riddle (we’ll start with an easy one).

On overleafs and underhangs,

I crawl upon my belly.

I eat my fill, sleep it off

then fly away in majesty

Tuesday’s riddle.

Halo on a head; ripples in a pond.

Age of a tree, sign of a bond.

I link together and keep apart.

If only you knew where to start!

Vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics to see the solution.

Hello everyone. This week’s Almanac entry is more slang! It’s been a while since I updated our slang page and I’ve been sneaking in more terms over the past couple chapters. Updates include: Arrête, Bavard, Be in the Moon, Belle, Boggle, Cachet, C’est bon, Crew, Ferme, Greenhorn, Heave, Joual, Make Like the Air, Manitou, Manse, Marque, Quel Dommage, and The Roost.

As you are probably aware, The Hobbit comes out in the U.S. next week. I’m a HUGE Tolkien fan. So in celebration of the release of The Hobbit, Snow by Night will be hosting Riddle Week next week. Every day, I will be posing a riddle for you to puzzle out. Those who guess the riddle get a gold star and an appreciative nod from Cienan (our character who likes riddles the most). Get your thinking caps on, because I have some good ones planned for you.

Outnumbered and outflanked, Blaise and Jassart need help. Where, oh where, will they find someone to come to their rescue? Find out in Page 19 of Chapter 5. To see Brittany’s pencils for this page, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

Also, we’re having our holiday sale in the Snow by Night store. Buy 3 prints get one free, and a bag o’ buttons. These aren’t just any buttons, but a bag of the popular colonial slang buttons. Because sometimes you need to make fun of your friends in 18th century insults, those ninnyhammers.

Oh, we graduated off the wait list for Katsucon and will be attending the convention in February. This is the largest anime convention in the DC metropolitan area. We were there last year and had a great time.

Also, our good friends over at Tamuran have an Indiegogo (it’s like Kickstarter) campaign. Help support indie comics! Especially the incredibly talented art and storytelling of Eren and Chezhnian.
