That's probably one of my favourite little bits of background detail in the whole comic.

I love that Kat is thrown off balance by Rey suddenly popping back to wolf form under her foot.

In a shocking twist, this chapter will end with Kat finally locating Annie, only to find her mackin' on her own secret lover.

I want to believe that the "pop" sound effect is the silliest, cartooniest popping sound. Anyway I always love Kat and Rey just talkin' like pals, they're just so natural

You all do rereads far more often than I do. Is that behind-the-shoulder shot of Kat a first for that angle in this series? I like how it gives an air of uncertainty to a statement that would otherwise be read as fairly resolute. Yay for complicated feelings!

Paz called her Katerina before. That's basically her full first name, just in spanish hehe. Well she use to anyway. Think since after Faraway she's been calling her Kat as well.

Remember the time I mentioned that Antimony's mother's maiden name was Stibnite, an antimony-rich ore? I just realized that her first name also means antimony. Surma is antimony in Russian. Lady, your name is Antimony Antimony-ore, and you named your daughter Antimony?

I always assumed Anja was Polish, though I may have been conflating her with Gamma.

Thanks. I love how goofy perspective means emotional distress. It makes the beginning take on a completely new character.

Have everything put into labelled envelopes but I wanna get an estimate from the post office about shipping, as the Royal Mail is currently charging me £3.50 to send to the USA and £6.99 to send within the UK. Badge was £5, aitf books were £5, A5 envelopes, priceless. The dude who asked me for Vol 4, I didn't pick it up because I didn't want to carry it all around the fair and then all the way home again, but it's the same price on Amazon anyway. So did Tom even have any canvases or original art at his booth this year?

Why is it that Annie's cut from Jeanne still shows up in the etherium? Did Jeanne actually cut her soul or has the whole Jeanne situation affected Annie to the point where she can't let it go?

Did Jeanne actually cut her soul or has the whole Jeanne situation affected Annie to the point where she can't let it go? We haven't exactly had confirmation, but it's probably closer to the former. She had that cut in the ether for ages before she was even aware of it.

I always read it as a "she's so powerful the wounds she inflicts can't heal" kind of thing. Like, once they manage to banish her Annie's ethereal scar could vanish. That's only my interpretation though.

Good work with this page, Tom. Approaching this subject matter without being preachy or overwrought is hard and you're pulling it off well so far. It's much more of a page about Kat and Rey doing CHARACTER STUFF, which I think is the right way/more entertaining thing to do. That being said, it's pretty dreadful to be told that you're going to be hated pretty hard for something that you just are, but I'm glad wolf-form Rey's the first person she talked to about it. Blunt wisdom seems to be the way to go here. Also, it is normal, Kat. Sky's blue. Fire's hot. Some folk gay.
