I introduced Dr. Freeman here in a Christmas series back in 2011, and keep looking for excuses to use him more, but it’s surprisingly hard to find places to work in a tree-themed mad scientist.  And given the kind of running gags I DO manage to work in, that’s saying something.  And yes, I’m afraid this is Jenna’s only appearance in this set of comics too.  Hey, her side-story comic over on Patreon finally started up again, the girl can only do so much!

(Historical Notes: I really need to quit trying to do tree monsters like this, it just seems to get worse every time I try it.  Also, the Jenna comic went and stalled again so I could focus on getting this last batch of re-posts done, but it WILL start up again soon!  No year-long hiatus for THIS comic!)
