About <Ctrl><Alt><Bkspc>
About The Comic
<Ctrl><Alt><Bkspc> is a comic focusing around the juxtaposition of magic in a world of technology. It's written and artified by Mark Kéy-Balchin (me), who initially drew it as just an excersize, and did not expect it to become as large as it is.
<Ctrl><Alt><Bkspc> is loosely based around real life, so sometimes there'll be references to actual events - kind of an in-joke bonus, I guess.
I try and keep Mary Sue away with a giant repellant gun, but sometimes she sneaks 'round the back and makes a mess of things. Sorry! :D.
Truth arc
After drinking something that the Ambers spiked with their mysterious concuction, Mark finds he is unable to tell a lie. Will he manage to avoid the two girls until it wears off?
About the Characters
Mark Kéy-Balchin (no relation)
Mark is a computer and astronomy geek - that's his strength, and he prefers to work within this saftey net of knowledge. But late in the year 2006, this net begins to unravel as strange things begin to happen around him, those which cannot be explained by mere science.
Matthew Veddar
Close friend and confidant, Matthew is laid-back, but always willing to give a hand to his friends. He's levelheaded, with fast, logical solutions when needed, but that doesn't stop him from snarking a bit. :D
A/N: Honestly, I don't know what that flicky oval thing is either, it's just a part of his hair that I draw for some reason. ^^
Amber H.
Amber is intellegent and cunning, but she wants to learn more. Not satisfied with facts, she tries to learn all she can about her classmates... perhaps going a little too far.
A/N: The person this character is based on isn't nearly as aggressive or obsessive, she just likes pestering me about my crush. :D
