Anticlimatic Mysteriousness
And with a new month comes a dramatically new, not to mention legible, style! This is the point where I finally got fed up with using Paint (can you blame me?) and downloaded GIMP. Due to the fact that I was already slowly losing my buffer as school took over, I didn’t have much time to play with it. So over the next few weeks of comics, you’ll see several subtle changes in the comic style as I play with new toys.
Oh, and this is also the point where I start titling my comics on the comic itself (when I moved to the new site, I had to title all of the old comics). I’ve seen a few other webcomics do this and I’ve always liked it. Plus it gives me a way to tell them apart other than the date.
Have fun!

Character Development
Pete Dubois is a reference to my favorite magician, Peter Boie. Just thought you might find that interesting.

Luck
There are several cameos here. Basically, I went through the list of fans I had on Facebook (I had a selection of about 20-30 by the time of drawing this) and picked out a few to insert here. For the sake of their privacy, I have refrained from putting their names into this.
Have fun!

Extreme Climbing Adventure
At this point, I discovered that three panels wasn’t as easy to do as four. It’s kind of odd. Part of this had to do with sizing; I draw everything out on a sheet of paper. With the three-panel strip format I was putting six panels on a page, while with four panels I use one page per comic, thus giving me more space to work with.
Have fun!
