New #23: Thugs

New Page #23!

It was customary to keep important things hidden in shoes. Like money you didn’t want anyone to find. Or… other secrets.

Rogers seems to suspect there is something else going on with Nathan Hale.

I want to spotlight three upcoming events! This weekend I’ll be at Wizard World Ohio, always my favorite show of the year, seeing as how all my friends come into my hometown. This year my little house will be filled to the brim. Come out and see me!

Next week I was asked to be a panelist at my Alma Mater, the Columbus College of Art and Design for their MIX Symposium on Comics. There is a fantastic lineup. I’ll be there on Friday, on the Extraordinary Epics panel giving a behind the scenes look at the making of the exhibit for the Nathan Hale School House, and I’ll also be on the Independent Comics panel.

And West Coasters, I have the distinct pleasure of being invited to the Academy of Arts University in San Francisco for their Comic Symposium “Digital Tools for Comic Creators.” This event is open to all!

Full details on all these events and more below!

    *Party in the USA plays in the background*

  2. Hannah says:

    NAATTHHAAAAN. Why couldn’t you have found a better hiding place and saved me from all of this sobbing?

    As for the VI, Bea better watch out! Ben doesn’t look too happy…

  3. Brent says:

    On the one hand, I’m kinda so proud of Nathan here, but on the other……dammit.

    And Ben looks even less happy. Good times….

    INCENTIVE CAPTION!!!!

    Ben: “What do you mean they split The Hobbit again?”
    Bea: “Ben, we….we were talking about–”
    Ben: “What, your past boyfriend? Yeah, the new kid told me all about that.”
    Bea: “New kid?”
    Ben: *points*
    Freddy: “Hi, Miss Whaley!”

    Oh my gosh I love your comic! It makes me so emotional.

  5. Kirsty says:

    AHH the suspense is killing me!

  6. Caera says:

    Poor Nathan. So not cool. Literally, with all the fires around.

  7. Jen says:

    Did he just take a bag of coins out of his shoe? That can’t have been comfortable to walk on.

    Also – run, Nathan! You don’t need two shoes to run! (Why isn’t he listening to any of us?)

  8. Nathan! Don’t put them in your shoes, man. Put them somewhere they’d be afraid to look–like your underwear.

  9. Julie says:

    *passes out paper bags for the hyperventilating Nathan fans* We can do this! We can survive the next several updates! *breathes into her own paper bag*

    Gimme your shoes!

    Seriously, though, my brother’s wife got mugged in Chicago one time. True story. She’s kind of a stylish affluent type, and not as aware of her surroundings as she should be. Also, she lived in a crappy neighborhood. The guys took her coat, purse, and shoes (they were hundreds of dollars).

    Personally, my feet are far too big to fit anything of worth in my shoes. Not a great hiding place.

    • Faith says:

      Was she FROM Chicago? ‘Cause I thought everyone here knew better than that… =/ I hope she was okay! As okay as she could be, sans coat, purse, and shoes, that is.

  11. Faith says:

    Nathan was an athlete, right? *imagines how this could potentially go…*

    Mean Man: “No. The other one.”
    Nathan: “I’m not sure you want me to–”
    Mean Man: “TAKE OFF YOUR SHOE! NOW!”
    Nathan. “Well. Alright. But don’t say I didn’t warn you!”

    *everyone passes out from smelly feet*

    Too far-fetched? I live in hope…
