Yay! Shopping Buddies!
Author's note: Okay, I see a problem forming. I worked on drawing, inking, scanning, cleaning, and coloring this mere 3-panel strip which is in reality only a 2-panel strip because I totally copy and pasted with slight edits in the third panel… Well, it took me Sunday 08-16-09 from 1:00 PM without eating, until a break for other commitments and eating from 5:50 PM - 9:00 PM, and then I worked on it from then until 3:20 AM Monday 08-17-09 when I finally finished. DANG. I can't keep this up as a webcomic, but fortunately I already half-care about updating daily. This is obviously a sign to ditch updating daily. Also, I started the comic strip as a foreshadowing to the REAL comic story issues, full pages, so… Maybe I should finish this little side story above and just work on the real thing? I want to have an issue done before I'm old and gray…
Also, the comic strips may be in only black and white from now on. I may feasibly color them for the published volume collections and issues. I should finish this story in color though, don't want to lose quality during the same story. There are only 15 more panels in this side-story. Also, these comic strips should be considered fillers.
*EDIT: I made some of the text easier to read and also changed the coloring job to match the blue tint I gave the next strip. It's a little too dark though and I may need to lighten it up for printing purposes.

Sorry, Harkovast, it is too small. I was working a lot larger and then someone told me that the strips were too large on the page here. So I took their advice and shrunk them. I'll see if I can't fix this strip here though. Also, he says, "Sweeet! We can be shopping buddies!"

The text in the last panel gets a bit small to read.

You can't let it kill you. Do what you have to, and still keep your sanity!
