088 "Stranger Every Day"

Lightfoot on June 2, 2012

You might see a difference in Lucy here. Last few months, especially from new readers I've had complaints that it's hard to tell the women apart. My initial reaction was to add color, knowing it would be an easy way to solve the problem, but that it would also give me time to come up with some redesigns of the characters that might help to solve the problem the harder way.


I don't have examples of how some of the characters might look yet, but I'm really trying to both make them at least more unique, but also not seem like a completely different character. Hopefully this turned out well, but if not, I'm open to hear about it.


Lucy still has her arm in a cast. It's probably only been a few days since her injury in chapter 4. I had thought about having her spend a chapter or two in a wheelchair, but I thought that I should normalize her instead- so she's gotten a replacement set by now. She'll probably damage her legs again, it's not like she's careful with them.
