@Kenny. Yeah, I know what you mean. And I know what JB means about how the old comics don’t really age well. But they did have some great moments. NNS has always struggled- to do what?, no one can figure out but JB. A few good moments don’t make a good entirety, but they’re there all the same.
@ JB: & I completely understand that as well. I didn’t save that first version to do anything backhanded like that to spite you. It just…….. I dunno, makes for a nice comparison piece is all.
I mean, if anyone has an archive of the original continuity and wants to share it privately, I guess I can’t stop them. I just have no desire to make those strups publicly available, seeing as how, y’know, I hate them 😅
@Jayster: That hasn’t been a problem for me. I quickly saved all old continuity comics when I heard of the retooling. (& also have been saving all of the CURRENT version as well)
@Tarotsu – I don’t think I ever saw her in the old continuity, if I remember correct. In fact, I never saw Katy and Ashleigh hanging out with other people besides each other and eventually Lindsay.
Come to think of it Melanie has been a recurring character in this new continuity. Sometimes, you need 20 seconds of insane courage to have something good come from it. Go for it, Ashleigh.
@ Mole: Oh, STFU. People like you aren’t any help with this whatsoever.

@Zach Kenny: Well, Jesse seems to have no intention on making them publicly available anymore so I don’t see the problem
@ Tarotsu: I couldn’t do that. They’re not my strips to begin with.
Poor Ashleigh!
This is gonna hurt.
Looking at Melanie’s previous appearances, it seems possible Jesse’s been laying the groundwork for this for a while.
Ash, talk to Jocelyn again. She’s also an authority on swearing.
Ok, looking back at the (current continuity) strips, I’m thinking Jesse has had this planned out for a while.

Here, Melanie is evasive when asked what boy parts she likes best.

Here she looks uncomfortable as Ashleigh and Katie drool over a boy.

In this one I even joked in the comments that Melanie stole Tabitha’s bra, but maybe I was onto something?
Lol, that last line.
@Zach Kenny: Do you think you could share those old strips with me? We can discuss this on some other platform like Discord if that’s okay?
@Zach Kenny – Well aren’t you somethin’? Lol
@Jayster: That hasn’t been a problem for me. I quickly saved all old continuity comics when I heard of the retooling. (& also have been saving all of the CURRENT version as well)

Was Melanie in the old continuity? I don’t remember if she was. And JB still hasn’t addressed the issue with archiving it.

Is this a bookstore or the school library? Either way, this is going to be an interesting conversation.
Watch your mouth Ashleigh. Only mature adults like us are allowed to say damn, bitch ass, and hell.
So get your hellin’ damnin’ ass inside that bitchin damn shop and ask Melanie out damn it!
