OK, so it’s actually not a wound at all. But that’s quite a tear through two layers of fabric for the knife to have missed, right? HMM.
I’m desperately trying to get at least a month ahead with this strip in anticipation of upcoming holidays and other projects. So far, I’m about halfway there. It’s killing me a bit, because I know we’re approaching the end of the strip but I’m trying to find a balance between rushing it and stretching it out. Either way, hope you enjoy.

Wow. I actually forgot to shade panel 2. See, this is what happens when you don’t have an editor. Guess that’ll be fixed in the print edition, huh, kids?
