Thoughts on Descendants #52 (Scenes From a Changing World)


I don't normally do this, seeing as 'Scenes' is still ongoing, but I am making a good faith option to blog and for once I do have some thoughts that I'd really like to share on the subject.

Scenes From a Changing World is different from most issues of Descendants because it's very explicitly broken into multiple short stories. This isn't exact;y new; the Annuals always worked as check-ins with the characters, Giant-sized became this way accidentally when I lost the thread of the frame story, and Some Day In May (Special #4), was something similar. But this time, I didn't just tell different stores, but in different styles. I'm not sure how it worked for the reader, but jumping from 'Fanon' to the upcoming 'Snick-Snap' was definitely an experience to me.

You Win Again, Internet.

As my sporadic postings here suggests, I'm just not a blog person. When I write, I prefer it to be a story. This whole format where I just say things is foreign to me. I'm much more comfortable speaking through characters, or through forums.

But blogging is the best way to communicate with my readers and goddamnit, I really do want to do good by them. So the plan is to do this twice a week at least. I can't promise quality, or entertainment, or any sort of schedule, but I can promise to try.

Also, I'm deleting all the ugly update stuff that came before because jeez that was a terrible idea.
