Which other comics/graphic novels do you read? For years, I was very into 'Strangers in Paradise'. I also quite liked 'Sandman', 'Hellblazer,' 'The Maxx' and 'Love and Rockets'. These days, I'm not obsessed with anything- I buy comics to learn from the art and storytelling. I did also like 'A Jew in Communist Prague' and 'Siegfried'.

Favorite films? To Kill A Mockingbird. Casablanca. They Came Back. The Bothersome Man. Blue is the Warmest Color.

Do you like videogames, and if yes, which games? I wish! I don't have the time!

How are you like/describe your personality: Wow, that's a hard one, still trying to figure out myself actually . What might be important to know for the forum is that I never mean to hurt people, but that I have a sarcastic sense of humor. So if I happen to offend you I am probably just joking  

Describe how you look: better not, I might scare you  

Favorite "what-if" couple in Elfquest? I'm still waiting for the first lesbian couple. Would have been cool to see Ember with... let's say... Yun.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!      



And again, welcome to Father Tree, Merelf!

Welcome to the tribe, Merelf. Such a fitting elf name. Enjoy your time here.

"The Dark Crystal" rings a bell ... were you going by Clearstone in former days on the former Sroll?

@Embala
Nope, that wasn't me. I really don't remember my username. I just posted there once or twice so I would be surprised if you'd noticed me at all...


@Kindredsoul
Yeah, that machine does wring a bell... although... no... 'don't...know...HUHHHHHARRRRGGGGG...... don't... know'

Thanks for welcoming me everone

Hi Merelf. Welcome to the tribe.

Welcome, indeed, to the tribe.

Never mind, Merelf. I won't become more investigative. ^^

'What a beautiful "face" you have. Such a cute chubby kitling ... she can easily be Shenshen.

Thank you. Actually it's my youngest daughter

It's a pencil drawing I made yesterday. When I tried to color it on the computer I found it looked prettier with this orange effect than in color, but does make her look like a redhead (she's blonde actually). And the curls (fake!) do make her look like a baby Shenshen, you are right
Just like Shenshen she is very cheeky. My husband and I always joke about that right after her birth we couldn't tell if we were looking at the butt or the face (we are horrible parents)

@Merelf- I love your taste in music! Welcome!

Your daughter must be so cute!

Your drawing is amazing, Merelf! These golden lines ... this golden shine is so warm and endearing. Your little one is so cute and lovable - a precious darling.

Hello, I'm Trollbabe from the Scroll of Colors, on which I was active for eleven years.  I was e-mailing Elfquest before that.

I'm a freelance writer for hire, just recently exploring online job sites.  Have been full-time since my last layoff.  My husband handles the bookkeeping, auditing, accounting, taxes, and cooking.

My favourite food is whatever my husband cooks.  This weekend, it's pie.


I became a fan after my late mother bought me the first volume of Elfquest, the color edition of the first four issues.

It's hard to pick a favourite character, but as you can see, I am partial to Trolls.

I like all kinds of music, especially someone who sings and plays well.

The other comics I read include anything by Sergio Aragones.

My hobbies used to be drawing, gardening and sewing, before I got too busy with freelancing.

The films we see are usually action movies or feature-length cartoons.

I was too old for videogames, by the time they were invented.

My personality is evident in my countless posts to the old Scroll of Colors.  I would describe myself as lazy and cynical.

Looks:  My husband and I look like garden gnomes.

Hi Trollbabe! Its so good to have you here, I missed seeing you around *hugs*

Welcome again, Trollbabe. It's good to have you here.

Hello, Embala! Hello, Nibblet, my favorite piece of produce!

Hello Trollbabe! It's so wonderful to see another familiar face!

Loving that Angela Lansbury avatar, by the way I wan't introduced to her until the "Murder She Wrote" series I used to watch with my great grandmother when I was a little girl, but WOW was she a beauty back in her day

Hi Trollbabe

My previous avatar was Angela Lansbury in "The Harvey Girls."

BTW I apologize for being late at accepting "Friends" requests - still learning!

It's been a long time, but I'm glad to be back and to see the scroll wasn't entirely lost! Thanks to all who made this place what it is!
