Everybody duck, there’s plot points flying all over the place! But who cares about potential insight into characters pasts or establishing the direction of future plot arcs. The important thing is that Avatar’s smiling and having a good time. Right?[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Sooooo… normally this would be the place where I debate weather or not I should have done the whole “text in white space with illustrations on the side” thing instead of just Ichabod sitting in a chair the whole time.[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
For once, we’ve got a bunch of characters I honestly DIDN’T expect to work into some non-Christmas comics this year. We saw most of these people in last year’s parade, but then, as now, it was just a VERY early[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
