Okay, if you’re reading this, then you’re also seeing a comic that’s obviously unfinished. Believe it or not, the problem actually ISN’T related to Katsucon and Conventional Wisdom for once. This time, the weather’s the problem, there’s supposed to be a big winter storm tonight. Now, The South has made a fine art out of overreacting over winter weather, but it IS possible that that power could get knocked out for a while. So, just in case, I went ahead and posted the half-finished version ahead of time. One way or another, I’ll replace it with the polished, colored version as soon as I can.

EDIT: Well, this is a little embarrassing. The power wasn’t knocked out down here, but I sure was. We can definitely blame Katsucon for that one, though.

(Historical Notes: The irony here is that the rough version was probably a lot easier to make sense of than the final version with all those stock images of fire pasted in.  I can’t remember how much Past Me complains about it in future pages, but I did NOT know what I was doing here, and a LOOOOOOOT of upcoming pages have the line art getting lost in backgrounds/effects.  Like, seriously, actually seeing Trigger in the bottom panel felt like Where’s Waldo, he was so hidden in all the squiggly fire details.  I’ve tried to do what I can to bring out the important stuff a little more in the re-editing process, but there’s only so much I CAN do with the material provided.)
