*Mike frowns.*

Mike: Don’t be a jerk.
*Sue freezes up.*

*Sue looks at Mike, mortified.*

*Abbey looks over his shoulder, concerned.*
Abbey: Where’s Daisy?

Author commentary

Oliver: I feel a little bad for Sue, lately. But Mike’s not wrong. Paulo was a good boy this con!

Remember, we are running our MONTHLY DRAWING STREAM this very Friday! Just two days from now. Come back to the site at page update time for the beginning of a big weekend. It’s been a tough week so we really hope you can come by and share a fun upbeat weekend with us.

Comments from around the web

If Mike knows anything, I hope he kicks Abby’s ass since Paulo won’t.

I guess Sue still has a little thing for Mike, with being so embarrassed that she offended him. Also McCainnnnn <3

Youve come such a long way, your transitions between scenes is so good now. It used to be a little confusing (waaaaay back when) but everything is so clean and lovely. I really like this style, too <3

Mike knows. HE FREAKEN’ KNOWS. Also YES McCain! I haven’t seen him in forever!

Haven’t seen McCain “for a while”

Funny thing is that Mike is defending the guy who regularly insult him, made him get beat up by a bunch of crazy woman and almost killed him… Good guy Mike

Mike and Paulo are vitriolic best buds, but still friends no matter how you slice it. I don’t think I would consider Mike and Abbey friends. This outcome is not surprising, but damn is it satisfying.
