ACxo

Aled!

Ariel

Mara

HOT.

laura

ellen de Ruiter

Maddy

Am I the only one thats worried about Nick drinking? 😕

ambie

oh boy!! we start to see tao and elle having some tension, but also nick falling in love with charlie again🫶🏻

Antonio

is this where we slowly start to cover nick and charlie for a bit👀

Elena

Nick in the last panel: "agreed! 😳😍❤️‍🔥"

Katrina Chavez

Im not, it's normal at their age in England

EC

lol it too me a minute to realize that the S+T by Nick is just SIT with a bit of the curtain impacting the I 🤣

Katha

I’m really excited to see the gang again ❤️ and I’m really curious how this night will go on 🫣

Charlie

Uh oh. The beginning of Tao and Elle’s break up in Nick and Charlie?? I see you planting the seed Alice

KP

Love how the drum kit is shown behind Charlie - feels (for me) like a grounding factor for him on the page. I really like this page, and appreciate how much more work it must be to capture the place, especially for all us international readers who haven’t been in a typical English pub 🍻

E

Yes he does!!!

toneelspeler

oh no. i hope i'm wrong but i feel the 'he's so hot and can do so much better than me' spiral coming up.

RO

Confident sparkles are back! ✨

Vantacy_1912

Guess we have N&C on the way…Storm coming!

Sara

its never been more over

Elfi

I love Nick and Aled putting their heads together and whispering!

Katrin

Agreed! And I would like to add: Also very adorable! ^^

tess ^_^

this is truly a range of motions in this page alone fr

tess ^_^

aled last so tiny. tiny lil guy. i could put him in my pocket.

Elfi

Ahhh, I was also confused! I didn't get that it meant SIT! 🤣

Katrin

I love that he is wearing a Shirt! Still a big thing for me when it comes to heartstopper. I'm so proud of charlie! Is that weird? ❤

Elena

Oh thank you! Now I get it! I was also confused. 😅

Lissie

The angst and there comes Charlie looking absolutely adorable

.

i’m so excited (and a little anxious) to see the next few pages!!

chlo💓

Oh nick 🥹

lia

tara speaking the truth as usual

kat

loove charlies outfit

Loveislove

Oh, he looks hot 🔥. Nick knows this already lol - hope there is no outsider hitting on Charlie tonight (with that possible jealousy angle)

Bob Scardino

no. not if you've been following his progress. It doesn's matter if he's a fictional character. There's something in the character that you (and I and lots of others) identify with.

Ania W.

Tara looks so cute 😍

Ellen🌈✨

istg they are the best dressed teenagers

Theaterboi27

Oh no, here we go Tao and Elle. Look at your hot rock star, Nick....

Dionne Lakey

Like Tara's head tilt as she checks Charlie out

cassidy cassidy

2 little things I just wanna point out. 1. The whisper bubbles are 1 defined line when earlier they use to be the little dotted ones. Doesn't actually matter if that's how you wanna draw them I just thought I would point it out that they changed. 2. I am not Muslim so this isn't exactly on my part to say but from what I know that hijab women don't typically talk to or stand directly next to men unless need be. Obviously this character isn't married yet, she is wearing a hijab rather than a niqab which niqab wearers tend to follow more "strict" practices and also in the context of a band gig she would have a reason to speak to Charlie. I just wanted to point that out that Muslim women, because of faith, aren't allowed to have deep connections or friendships with men aside from their husbands. Again, not Muslim, not a hijab or niqab wearer and I take it you probably did research when deciding to introduce a Muslim character, just something I wanted to state.

lia

love gossip!aled

Ania W.

Alice, will we find out what the reason for Elle and Tao's argument was?

Steph

I think we have a long way before the “Nick and Charlie” storyline….that takes place at the end of the school year and it’s only December here. There is a lot of ground to cover before then. I don’t think this is leading into that yet!

Dionne Lakey

That move: whispering behind his lager to hide his whispering. Love Alice's body language

lia

charlie’s hair is so goals to me

Katrina

I love Charlie’s confidence he has come such a long way 😭❤️ oh no Tao and Elle 😭 Tara just casually speaking facts and not the Aled and Nick gossip I love that for them and the look of love from Nick in the last panel he so whole heartedly agrees with Tara.

Jacqui Chesterton

This feels like the first taste of 'Nick and Charlie' territory

theo

aled knows all 🪐

Nyssa Rawther 🍉

Omg...is this the beginning of the TaoElle story we see in N&C!?!? This is gonna affect Nick even more if he finds out...BTW, Tara is so RIGHT. Look at our little Charlie, all grown up and looking fit as hell. Love Nick's heart eyes in that last panel. He's a smitten kitten 🥰🥰🥰

Wildallie Diaz

Yes Alice , I love how you are incorporating N&C novella. I know you are going to tweak it because those characters don’t feel the same as the ones in HS but I do like some of the issues in the novella.

Nikki

I’ve been trying to put my finger on what feels a bit different to me this volume and I think I’ve got it - to me it feels like they’re all starting to really come into their own identities with their style this volume (clothes, hair etc). Like Tara’s hair and top is different to what we see other characters in, Elle looks so Elle, Tao and Aled dress similar yet still distinguishable from each other, Charlie seeming more confident in his clothes, seeing Nick grow up with his choices. Maybe just me but I love, love seeing this. (Also my wee brain finding it hard to believe Nick is old enough now for alcohol 😂).

Calfic

Have that green dragon comment from Alice still in my mind.

Erynn

i got scared for a second that this was THE party

Elfi

The stars in Nick's eyes!!!

Elfi

Also everyone's body language feels sooo realistic! Awesome work!

Elena

Oh I can already feel something coming up, when alcohol is included. 😳 It's way harder to hide and control your true feelings, when you're drunk, and them getting drunk will surely happen faster at their age. I could imagine, that finally something will be revealed between one of them, especially between Tao and Elle or Nick and Charlie.

Nicky Van den Bosch

Aled just knowing everything because he is so attentive! Such an underrated character! Wish we would see more of him but there is still Radio Silence for that

val

oh i can feel the N&C novella starting to be very slowly incorporated i am #terrified tho i know its gonna be different from the novella hence nick and charlie from heartstopper and the ones from the novella are drastically different, but i trust Alice and oh i cant wait to see where and this is gonna go (also Tara speaking facts i see)

Aubrielle Peacock

not tara completely changing the subject and making nick distracted by his boyfriend

Loveislove

Me too - although there are positive connotations too. Maybe positive for Nick and Charlie but negative for Tao and Elle - I say desperately lol

Brittney

Oh shit.. it's slowly happening.. also thank you Tara! I'm glad we are seeing more of Charlie building his confidence like that's our boy! It's truly amazing to see how far Charlie has made it in life so far

JP42

You weren’t kidding about the backgrounds! Amazing work.

lia

also, backgrounds look amazing alice!!

Kas

Nick "heart eyes" Nelson

Kim

Some novella content coming to the page? 🤔 I see Aled and I'm immediately transported to Universe City 💜 And then see a lovely tall girl in a hijab and I feel like I was born for this. 🤓 Probably a different character but can't help the fangush.

Neenie

I like how the whisper tag is small so the actual dialogue is large enough to read

Brenda L

Honestly if Charlie’s wardrobe was up for grabs I would be first in line 🤩

Beam Bugge

this is aleena busch! she is indeed a different character to angel rahimi, but i'm sure they'd get along if they met :)

Kim

Thank you! I'm a POC and now I'm generalizing? 🆘 Oof I feel bad.

Beam Bugge

not muslim either but i know that some muslims are more laidback about some rules, for example some girls are okay with being near boys as long as they don't touch them or flirt with them

Beam Bugge

when even the raging lesbian can tell he looks hot you know it's true don't like the "tense" energy, especially knowing what it eventually leads to :(

Elena

I thought that too at first, but then I remembered, that this happens not until the summer and it currently is december in the comics!

Erynn

i quickly realized i was wrong but it got me for a quick second

flynn tasker

oh god im scared to hear what the argument is..

Cole Morin

It’s giving me sooooo much anxiety knowing what we know about the Nick and Charlie Novella ahhhhhh I’m uncomfortable 😅😅😅

Samaria!

HE LOOKS SO GROWN UP 😭😭😭 LIKE A UNI CHARLIE

Diana

I appreciate the detail that you can see a couple of Charlie's scars and he's not ashamed of them!

Elsie 3

“Charlie looks hot”… says Tara, while looking ridiculously hot. I see you, off the shoulder number

Sveinlaug

What does the S+T mean in the first one?

Leah !!

i think it’s meant to say “sit” but it looks like a + because of the background

Rosie💕

charlieeeeee🥰

Keefa Shine

tara used Distract Nick. it was incredibly effective

Murgy

Looks like its trouble in paradise for everyone right now :( Well, apart from Aled. I hope the fight between Tao and Elle wasn't too bad, but you can never be sure. Seems like everyone needs to talk some things out. and why do I find it amusing that its Tara pointing out that Charlie looks hot. Though yes, confidence does suit Charlie, and does seem to make Nick weak at the knees.

Justin S.

Nick: 👀 Target acquired

David C Witkin

The cauldron boils and bubbles and the messages of fate are driven on the winds of change.

melly2oo

Glad to know that reindeer antlers is what does it for Nick 😂

RCM

Alice really did give us the equivalent of 6 pages today...these panels are the perfect first glimpses into the unfolding story and vibe at The Green Dragon...the detials are amazing and I am so grateful!! I so LOVE how the Paris squad sat at a round booth so we get insight to the myriad of small conversations going on depending on each angle Alice selects. We get: -Aled and Nick whispering behind their pints is so sweet in their subtle-ish way. I love how you can see their mouths and can only imagine that Tao and Elle know they are whispering about them, but are not in a state to worry over it. That tense vibe is clearly obvious., and we can see the concern on Nick's face as soon as he sits down. -Tao and Elle...I love how they are the kind of friends who still show up to support Charlie and the band even though they are in a fight. Elle's keeping herself busy scrolling while Tao stares at his bottle with that BIG empty space between them speaking volumes (and the vertical lines on the booth leather feel so ominous. It's so realistic looking that you just know what scooching closer would sound like, but no one is moving a muscle...not even a glance over. But, neither of Tao nor Elle tend to be afraid of speaking their minds to each other now, so... -Tara sitting in the middle of everyone, worrying over Darcy being late, checking her phone, and also winning at life with her cute topknot hair and sassy sweater ( I mean, just LOOK at how radiant she looks in that 4th panel!). and the way she draws everyone away from their whispers and chilled silence to LOOK AT CHARLIE is just so genuine! It's like she is seeing him in a whole new light...she is seeing the Charlie who is in his bad ass, wonderful era and can't help but exclaim it! -Charlie Spring---I....I'm so proud of him. He is calm, collected, happy and so interactive, he has the perfect drummer outfit with the perfect hair and the perfect dimples, and his stance is just right here with those stars in the background so perfectly placed!, and he exudes self-confidence AND kindness. AND, we get those little white dots around his feet, going up to his drum kit, making me think about that Charlie Spring glowing light that has been glowing all around him so much this whole volume. It's all so perfectly done (if I haven't said that yet, lol). -Nick sees all the above...He sees his perfect, beautiful boyfriend who he keeps falling more in love with everyday. Nick feels all these warm fuzzy feels for Charlie, and sips his pint, and doesn't think about how he has ignored that horrible nightmare about losing Charlie since it happened...

Jordan

I love how the panels on both this page and the last are resting on top of a main “grounding” scene, where the characters are in a scene that falls outside of a panel. I wonder about the meaning of that because the last few didn’t have that I don’t think. It kind of echoes the feeling of actually being in a noisy pub where you are aware of so many things going on all around you, but also very “in” your own world like the characters are at their round booth. So many cool art styles in this volume with perspective and borders!

MJ

Kind of a side note: it's nice to see a Nick and Aled interaction!

Lilly Mae

1) I love the Aled and Nick interaction 🥹 2) Charlie does look hot. 3) Tara’s hair is so cute

Jay

the caption is literally me “tense” wondering what gonna happen next 🫣

Belle

Sooo is someone gonna hit on Charlie since he’s so hot👀? Are we gonna see a very jealous Nick?

brie

THEY LOOKNSO GROWN UP IM GONNA CRY

Chris

He is hot for sure but It’s December and Charlie is wearing a t-shirt while the others are in long sleeves ! I’m confused 😅

Laura

Hopefully a healty jealousy! Jealousy is totally normal in a relationship sometimes but it can be healthy and unhealthy.

BEL

He’s about to play the drums in a crowded pub - imagine that gets pretty hot (literally and figuratively! 🤣)…

BEL

Could the Tao/Elle fight be Alice reworking/retiming their short-lived split in N&C over being long-distance?

Merel

Nick and Aled interaction!!

Chris

Haha fair enough 🙂 and anyway he have a spare shirt on his boyfriend if he needs it 😛

ucfnurse

Charlie on drums!!!☺️😊🫶🏻💞🥁🎶🎵👨‍🎤🌹🎉🥳✌️🕊️☮️

aniatka

I love Charlie's hair sm and Joe's as well. I can't hold back a smile seeing them both. Alice, I appreciate sm countless hours to draw his hair ❤️

Claire

Tao and Elle working out how (if) they can make long distance work = more pressure on Nick (and Charlie). Nick not feeling good about himself (not feeling he is enough for Charlie) not a time he can deal with thinking how hot other people might find his boyfriend. I really love these pages where they are out and about in the world - loving the scene setting and backgrounds so much.

Lolli98

I'm sensing this won't be a fun night out. Tao and Elle argued and this "Charlie looks hot" comment will lead to something. It looks as if the girl from his band has a little crush on him?😉 Are the stars around his head supposed to underline his "hotness"? At first sight I thought Charlie might be flirting with the girl? But that's not possible, I guess. Maybe he still feels flattered by the attention which will lead to some (green dragon) jealousy from Nick. Indeed a very intersting page that could lead to lots of interesting storylines!😃

Mgirl02176

The girl from the band who called him hot is Tara and Tara is a lesbian sooo I doubt she has a crush on him 😂

hwalker

When a lesbian says you’re hot and you are a guy this is the highest compliment

Lolli98

Well, Tara isn't a girl from the band. I was talking about the girl in the last panel.

Embla Nyhlin

Play ”so hot you’re hurting my feelings” by Caroline Polachek

Lili

Ouuuuuu the girls are fightingggg😭😭😭

Jazmine Terson

AHHHHHHHH GO GET YOUR MANS NICHOLAS!!!!!!

Marina

SPOILER: Who read Nick and Charlie's book, like me (but a long time ago), can relate my hate for Tao? It is like, cannot you just tell your friend that if long distance does not work for your relationship does not mean it has to be the same for him?

Marina

Absolutely agree. Charlie looks so good (and I love it)
