sigh I cannot believe it's over,you know what,mine is means to Derideal,in which I clearly knows that it has been running for nearly 20 years,in which next year will 2026,which will be the 20th year's in creation and the year after the next year 2027 will be 20 years in online* (*All according to the year's of both in creation and in online respectively,both 2006 and 2027)
One day ago,over the influences of the Derideal finale "Catharsis",in which ending a chapter of a great Webcomic in 20 years,despite style changing,Reboots and such..........
In responses to that,I personally typed the letter with enthusiasm and confidence about what I think of Derideal and it's author and how does it means for it and such.....
This is the comment I made for this website........
Hey Andres Barra AKA by most of us as “Kiaun Conejillo”,
You know,when I first look at your art,I saw some or few and I did enjoy it,but when it comes to Derideal,firstly,I was a newbie to that,but then time went by,I saw some comics,and suggestions as well as get along with the comments with it’s nature’s as well,I was fully equipped with that knowledge,like what me and my parent’s sugest I should do it,but now,I did to do so,my parent’s suugest me to myself that I should know a lot of well education to equipped myself for good future,and for my future to work and do my best dream as well,but sometimes I maybe a little difference and stupidity and lazy,but still,experience and hobbies and some wise words knows best,I might regret for miss some to do,but your Webcomic give us some confidence to all artist,I think a award fot that is also usual,you see,when in 2006,this Webcomic was originally a notebook sketch on a certain Sunday in a sunny Chile,then time went by……so does yourself,You skilled and skilled,from a simple notebook sketch,to a massive webcomic/ web-graphic novel universe full of possibilities,There is always a luck to do some,always a will to do such,I see how character suffer and pain,as we as their opposite like joy and pleasure,if there’s anything I can say for most to compare or such,is that Laura’s life is kinda remind me of such thing’s I got aside of that,for instance,just recently,I saw one of my favorite,don marquis’ “archy and mehitabel”,from what i see from mehitabel and laura,is that like mehitabel was cleopatra before,laura in your and mine’s views,was a young girl,a daughter of a doctor berit orzoco,before she was taken by death for sickness,but her father,the doctor we seen before a long ago,tried his best and did succeed outsmart the death and alive,when he resurrect her in a xeno form as a matter of part of research for a project prime,but berit was firstly refused,then regret for all that,as for the Berit Orzoco,she had any responsibility and good takes in her roles,as a mother of the late but revived daughter,misconsider as a monster at first,later deeply reconsider,and as a responsivle scientist,for Daniel Earlson,he show me how unique he is,he can treat fairly and well doing than Wally does,As for Alpha/Aden,despite being shot ant gutted twice or three times,he cannot stop,just like Winston Smith had her Julia before taken away,Aden/Alpha had Twice with Laura and Ivory in his back,and how can I say anything to Carlos Wally? Well,to me,he is like other doctors,and to me,he is like the Archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo,and to me,he was like Richard the 3rd,Duke of Gloucaster,King of England,at least what we seen from the Tudor’s viewpoint,or from Shakespeare’s pen or some from his own despite without any awful attempt when he was attempt to be the first to be the king,He was like General Zod,He was like a low pro Big Brother,He was like a Commander from Farenheit 451,except if he was no experience on that,He was like Fred from the Handmaid’s tale,He was like Adam Sulter from V For Vendetta,He was like The Sheriff of Nottingham and crude Prince John of Robin Hood,He was lime AM from I have no mouth but i must Scream,except he was a flesh diabolical instad of server diabolical,He was like Jullius Caesar or Brutus Caesar,He was like Phillipe Petain,He was like General Augusto Pinochet and Savaldor Allende,What word if i can say to Wally? Perhaps a Old Shakespeare saying goes to King Richard 3rd,King of England,Duke of Gloucaster “If not to Heaven, then hand in hand to Hell!”………
Aside from Shakespeare and All that,i do like Some artist and talents like from the ancient times to modern days,with the likeliness of Harvey Kurtzman,Renè Goscinny,Zhang Le Ping,Andrè Franquin,Francisco Ibáñez,René Ríos Boettiger,from your native country,Chile,Mauricio De Sousa from Brazil,Osamu Tezuka,Fujio Akatsuka,Naoto Oshima,Shigeru Miyamoto,Fujio F.

Segar,Craig McCracken,Genndy Tartakovsky,Don Martin,John and Marie Sevrin,Alain Chabat,Shotaro Ishinomori,Go Nagai,Tom Richmind,Desmond Devlin,Part Time Seagull,Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas,Stan Lee,Jack Kirby,Bill Morrison,Mike Reliciano,Eiichiro Oda,Gosho Aoyama,William Hanna and Joseph Barbera,Gene Deitch,Moneky Punch,Tom Ruegger,Eric Schwartz,Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster,Jim Shooter,Fred Hembeck,Harlem Ellison,Jack Davis,Hank Ketcham,Mort Drucker,Wallace Wood,Mort Walker,Charles Schultz,Ted “Seuss” Geisel,Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird,Frank Miller,Ward Sutton (despite with Stan Kelly),Manuel Vazquèz,Orson Welles,Jean Tabary,Spike Milligan,and more….as well as some internet these days and old styles and other talents cortresy of Rafael Vicente Alva “RafvicAlv”,Alan Moore,Terry Jones,Graham Chapman,Eric Idle,John Cleese,Terry Gilliam,Michael Palin,Hayao Miyazaki,Nigel Parkinson,Donny Cates,Jon Hickman,Charles Akira “bakertoons” Brubaker,Major Matt Mason,Billy Crinon,Matt Melvin,Dan MacElfatrick and Rob DenBleaker and Kris Wilson of Cyanide and Happiness,Luke McGarry,Fox Popvli,Brian B. “DotMatrixGame/Beedugart” in which i cant blame for that,never will be,Nakselion from Indonesia who work on “Zoantero” (despite four letter as yours in which i cannot make offensive on that),and from Chinese,we got Xuao2000,土猫Feng (for he also not to blame too),Aquakitty (in which your translator for CN Derideal),and even you.
Despite the above and the latter are some of my favorites and some of yours followers as well,But after all these time,i just wanna say Thank you,Kiaun,for bringing us the Derideal world to us in these 20 years,and by that means,i do means for 2006 when it was just you little notebook page,and 2007 when it was online,I will looking forward to look more of this stories,it has been a pleasure to be in service,The Stories is in full circle,I know its been very hard work trying to end the story,i hope the last note will get a colorful reciept,a last note from you in the Epilogue and Some last word for this Derideal comic for you will be much better to say,it is been a pleasure……We salute you,all the best and worst,but all the great for you.
You make us what we are today,and we also make your day brighter than ever…….Alpha’s feeling is like a undenyable and unshatterable crystal,skmething thst even Wally and his attempt of the Consortium Conditioning treatment can and can’t do,but one thing certainly to say,is that when you thing you are very smart to be expected,you also might get wrong,what goes up for you,must come down to some,like Jack Kirby once said “If you see my characters,you can see me,whatever the character you created or concieve,a little of yourself must remain”……..There is too much to say for it,but to be in short and honest,i saw you in the character,what your character do represent what you have gone to,what the stories see what your feelings for and what you think of the world you see or create for,this is how i describe your work,with a old saying from Jack Kirby fully explains that,it’s being a pleasure to serve the public good.
Thanks,Kiaun for all these wonderful and emotional 20 chapters and 20 years of Derideal
Yours Sincerely,Yours in Excelsior,Your in Frankly and Truly and MADly,and Wisely and Silly to yours.
