#021 - 2007-01-29

Monday, January 29th, 2007

Wow! 5 posts in 1 month. Not bad! Well the introductory phase of Anders Loves Maria is coming to a close soon. And coming relatively soon afterwards, Anders Loves Maria will be updating twice a week with parallel stories.

Hmm my daughter’s diaper here smells like Alphabets. Wtf?

    HAR HAR! The look on Anders’ face in the last panel is priceless! Poor schmuck! Say goodbye to Swedish rockstars and say hello to diapers that smell like Alphabits!

    […] And the webcomic is why I don’t think I like Rene Engström. It’s a romantic non-comedy, about Anders (photographer, in love with the idea of being in love, with a tabloid-fodder famous mom) and his girlfriend Maria (younger, less focused, in love with Anders but still able to get pissed at him when he’s an asshole). They have a comfortable relationship together when Anders drops a bombshell: he thinks they should have a baby. Maria recoils, an old girlfriend comes into the picture, Anders feels the tug of temptation, and Maria gets pregnant inadvertantly. It’s messy, they’re confused, but love wins out in the end. Fade to credits. […]

    Who keeps posting the above paragraph?? It seems, uh, kinda mean. Anyway, if you click on the author in the previous post, it’ll take you to the review. The last paragraph of the same review reads:

    […] And that right there is why I adore this strip — just like real life, there are no clear intervals in the story, there is no upswell of music at the end of the reel, there never will be a neat resolution where everybody gets to go Awwwww. There’s just more life and the choices we make, and I guess I really do like Rene Engström after all. Read Anders Loves Maria, and you’ll like her, too. […]

    Yeah I think that’s just some automatic trackback thing.
    But talk about foreshadowing. Well, too late now, Anders.
    That does look like that making of a tasty white Russian, though.
