Are you confused with what's going on in Pulse?  I've had a number of people mention unspecificially that it wasn't making sense, but didn't give any direct information.

I go with the flow

Are they confused by the BE?... the horror

Perhaps it's the whole old/new/future Sparrow that's not 100% clear?

The real explaination is that Sparrow was going to be Pulse's first enemy.  Instead of what really happened, Sparrow would steal a suit (thinking it was the only one) in the second comic.  They would fight it out in the third.

I changed my mind, but had already set up odd events in the first comic.  This was one way to go without erasing older pages.

I wasn't planning on giving a lot of information about her now, but maybe I should put in a few pages of explaination.  It's just that in the past people have said I explain things too deeply.

I don't think you should feel a need to explain things constantly - it's nice to have explanation and some thing need to be spelt out... but I think you should probably leave a bit of mystery around the Sparrow replica, it's always good to have some degree of mystery and curiosity in a comic...

I suppose we already had the whole thing with knowing Sparrow was doing something on the sly - and now we know that she wasn't really Sparrow at all. I suppose what I'm getting at is - never be afraid to leave us in the dark for a while. At the same time though, you don't want to turn into Lost and always promise answers that are never going to get given.

Thus far, I think you've done a pretty good job of keeping a good balance.

Well, I had already started drawing the next page.  I did change things to add some extra stuff to explain about her, so I have to follow through with that.  I think it'll only add an extra page to Sparrow's scene, meaning there's 3 more pages, instead of 2.  Lucy's scene and the second half of Annie's part of the story are left after that.

I think that (looking back) it's not as good an idea to have long-term secrets in a webcomic.  Most often that means it'll take years for people to find out the truth.  Most casual readers will have lost track of the complicated events.  I think most secrets shouldn't last more than one chapter to the next maybe.
