Last year I felt burnt out from making comics entirely, and I wasn’t sure if I could even return to making simple ones. However, a silly idea came to me for some Operating Superstars characters that were rejected from the first team they auditioned for before joining another.

Since the OSes within a team don’t have to be related (and usually aren’t) in this setting, this is a possibility that I explored. A short comic felt like the best way for me to convey this idea and as a way to re-introduce some characters. It was compelling enough for me to try again.

Behold, a #WIP preview of a short comic: “If at First You Don’t Succeed…”

Katsumi makes his first story appearance in the new version. It also shows his re-design following the announcement I made of planning to redesign several characters. Some of the next characters will have more extensive changes.

I introduced him as being the first host of an educational show that his original team ran. He keeps this role. Some of the characters that’ll appear in this comic will be re-introduced from the previous version.

Hello #Fediverse, today’s OS-tan is Windows 97-tan, a lesser-known OS-tan representing Windows 97 which does not exist as an actual OS (or it was as the first test version for 98, Windows Memphis Developer Release). Often called Nana-chan, she’s depicted as a cheerful little girl with brown hair styled in buns with braids.

There is a gag in the era of Windows 7 of her covering up the Kanji on her forehead except for the '7', trying to pass herself off as Windows 7-tan in hopes of rising from obscurity and gaining more recognition.

Although she represents a version of Windows that never officially released, Windows 97-tan has her own storage facility on older OS-tan image vaults.

Her first appearance remains unknown, but she has been suggested as the personified version of Windows 7 in certain translations

Hello #Fediverse, here’s today’s daily OS-tan!

This is Saba-tan, the personification of Windows Server 2003! Saba-tan is part fish, part girl and wears an ethernet hub on her head like a bonnet. Her name is a pun on "server" (サーバー, saabaa) and "mackerel" (鯖, saba), which is why she’s depicted as a fishy character.

She started as a one-off character dressed in a mackerel costume but as OS-tans became popular, she got a more defined look and became a regular in OS-tan stories.

Hello #Fediverse, here’s today’s daily OS-tan!

This one is of DOS Prompt, a lesser-known who represents MS-DOS! DOS Prompt is portrayed as a shy character often hiding behind things and carrying a keyboard.

DOS Prompt is believed to have first appeared in 2003. Unlike DOS Kitty, DOS Prompt was officially named by her creator, XP-Aki.

DOS Prompt is typically depicted as a schoolgirl with black or dark grey pigtails with hair ties shaped like the "DOS" prompt logo. She wears round glasses, a white button-down blouse with a light blue skirt and suspenders.

Hello #Fediverse, today’s OS-tan, or "OS-tan", is Claudia Madobe (クラウディア・窓辺), the official Japanese mascot for Microsoft Azure!

Claudia made her debut on May 23, 2011 in *Cloud Girl – Windows, Clouds and Blue Sky* (クラウド ガール -窓と雲と碧い空-), a webcomic released by Microsoft Japan to introduce and explain cloud technology. She was designed by Wakaba, the same artist behind Nanami Madobe. Though she is not an OS some people may group her with them anyway.

Claudia is an experienced Windows Azure developer with a master’s degree in engineering and over two years of practical development experience.

She excels in cloud computing and can sometimes come across as a little superior to beginners, but she’s always willing to teach and share her expertise. She often collaborates with her Madobe cousins, Nanami, Yū, and Ai in promotional events and campaigns as well as with her colleague, Ruri Azumi and is voiced by Eri Kitamura.
