Although I agree I want to see more before I pass judgement on it. It still seems off to me but I can't tell if it is just becuase it's new and I haven't adjusted to it. On his sketches he posted I thought the ones for Miranda and Jade look fairly decent. Although Jade looks like she is several years younger while Brent looks like he has aged several. But Cole strikes me as the most weird but that could just be cause it looks like he has put on a ton of weight.

Yeah, the sketches of Jade look, well, like Jade, not a huge difference there. Marcy is unrecognizable but not bad either.

Cole man, we need to have a talk.

At first I hated it, but only because it's so sudden. It looks like we had a time skip to the future.

I think I can dig it, but I'll have to see more.

Marcie got some tig ol' bitties.

I like Jade, she looks less of a harridan. Brent and Cole somehow remind me of Twisp and Catsby now.

Did everyone miss the aritcle Kurtz linked to? This has nothing to do with the Print vs Webcomic debate, but the idea that streamlined technology has made it harder for cartoonists to represent things, since, for example, the iPhone is less visually distinct than older types of phones.

I don't know, but it's a good thing he made it clear he was speaking for himself, isn't it?

How were we supposed to know PVP was turning into Penny Arcade?

I really, really don't like the new Brent. Cole looks like an eggplant. Marcy has gotten way cuter and Jade looks like Jade.

I don't like the style for the new Cole and Brent. I can't quite put my finger on it, but my gut is saying they look like someone is trying to ape vintage cartoon styles but mixing up different eras with no real regard to aesthetics. Reminds me too much of cheap animation that's trying to be weird for art's sake.

It's good to see Scott trying Mike's style from his "Clerks" era, where the entire body is basically a single curve. That paid off really well for Penny-Arcade in terms of developing art. On the other hand, Cole and Brent don't look "right".

No, not a fat joke. He looks like Chaz in the face. Seriously. If it was a fat joke I'd go with someone who was really fat. Chaz is not what I consider fat. Or I'd just post a pic of Scott. He's a lot bigger than Chaz but ever since the operation I see similarities in both.

Note: For the record, this is comparing Scott to Chaz Bono, who is on Dancing With the Stars. Not nice, not subtle, but not breaking the rules. Except where he called Tress a name. That's been removed. Have a nice day.
