...I wish I knew why ComicGenesis keeps doing that. I asked about it in their forums and I checked my settings, and it looks like everything's just as right as it can be... but it seems like the site keeps auto-updating whenever it happens to feel like it. :/
I've always thought pictorial speech bubbles were neat and underused... they're visually efficient, since they tend to either communicate their message more rapidly than text, or they're a joke in-and-of themselves if they take some figuring-out on the part of the reader.
My roleplaying character in the interactive comic paperspace is a centaur who communicates exclusively in pictorial speech bubbles. I hadn't even planned for him to do that; he just turned out that way. Reminds me, that place needs more activity...
I later found out about irrimiri_comic, which also stars a nonverbal character who sometimes speaks in pictures.
The dragon in the lower-left corner had a more satisfying mouth-squiggle in the sketch. Something of its vitality was lost when inking, but it still works nearly as well. Cartooning is like that.
