Well, what did Layla THINK was in all these boxes… at the kiosks OF A GUN SMUGGLER’S MARKET? Funny the things you forget about in the heat of a firefight… No really, try it. You’ll see.

Also… that’s possibly the ugliest gun I’ve ever conceived for this comic. I was trying for laser gating gun, but just wound up with a leafblower. I really need to go back to ripping off designs from more famous Sci-Fi sources and calling it an “homage”.

Anyway, as I was complaining about all last week, I’ll only be getting back from MAGFest by the time you read this. That is, I had to bash it out in a real hurry and couldn’t get a Voting Incentive done again. As I write this, I’m HOPING to get Friday’s page done before I leave as well. Hey, the Conventional Wisdom update is gonna have the odds stacked against it as it is. It’ll be better for both comics if I’m not trying to cough up another one of THESE in the midst of all that.

(Historical Notes: After all this time, I STILL hate the look of those leafblower guns.)
