I drew Wren’s X-Men patch and said to myself, “where have I seen this before? OH YEAH, Scott Pilgrim. Hey! That comes out today! Good timing, self!”
Transcript will be up at some point today (Friday).
Thanks for reading, and sorry about the cliffhanger!
Wren enters Bluestocking Books, looking eager. Eve looks awkward.
WREN: Morning, Eve!
EVE: Oh, uh, hi, Wren.
WREN: Ready for another day of peddling our literary wares to the masses?
EVE: Wren, listen…
Wren remains excited, clueless to the fact that Eve is now irritated.
WREN: Wait, ok, I know I didn’t sell any zines yesterday…
EVE: Wren.
WREN: And maybe I’m getting ahead of myself, but I have a marketing strategy-
EVE: Wren?
WREN: Maybe if we put some other comics up at the front desk, the classic titles could draw people’s eye, and then…
EVE: WREN. LISTEN.
EVE rubs her forehead while WREN looks shocked.
WREN looks timid as EVE begins to cry.
WREN: Or, I could… throw away the zines… and leave you alone forever.
EVE: Wren, honey… I have to close Bluestockings.
No. It’s not going to happen. Right?
I love the touch of blue under Eve’s eyes in the last panel . . .
Nooooo! Say it ain’t so!
