Howdy again, folks.

This page marks the return of Gog and Bolo. They had their debut in the very first Endstone pages I posted back in February. And while that was just last issue, it's actually been 9 months! I wish I could post more pages weekly but I'm a notoriously slow artist and then there's that whole day job thing. : (

Commentary

Bolo is a sneaky guy who will stab you in the back if you're not careful. Gog is a dog in the Endstone realm. He has a keen sense of smell and can hear very well with those big floppy ears. Because stray dogs are not allowed in most cities, Bolo is technically Gog's master but they have a personality dynamic more like an old married couple.

Gog and Bolo are designed to hopefully act as foils to the more serious characters. And both of them are suspects in the hunt for the missing Endstone pieces.

Responses from last week's comments:

The New Number Two - High food? I'm thinking of a certain type of brownie…
oldguy85 - Thanks. Jon almost became a roasted CFO.
cyberdog - Too bad Jon's a stoner, not a runner
Juvenile Jay - Thanks. I appreciate it.
Phillby - LOL — great pun and thanks.
Doctor Shadow - Thanks again!
SoItBegins - Thanks! Jon's story will eventually be revealed.
Lemniskate - I hope he survives too. Too much work replacing him in the banner… ; )
theends - thanks again.
AzuJOD - it's an expensive suit, too.
thefightingstranger - It's even worse if you're totally qualified and still can't find a job as food.
Ironscarf - Thanks. And I really recommend Manga Studio. My art grew by leaps and bounds once I started using that software. The ability to "ink" stuff and then resize a wonky hand or leg after everything is "inked" is just golden.
armandoB - Thanks!
Crimsonskystudio - Thanks for stoppin' by.
istaerlus - I've always thought it was an interesting twist having a character in a fantasy story wearing a suit. That juxtaposition came first and then the story sort of grew out of the question "how and why does he wear that suit?"
machinehead - Thank you sir.
theBSDude - Thanks for stoppin' by.
The Gravekeeper - I think "piss boy" has to be pretty high on that list too.
I am Candyman - Thanks again.
darkwaterfrey Thanks, and Katmandi had my vote all the way.
DAJB - LOL.
magicalmisfits - Thanks for stoppin' by.
grobles63 - I want to know what happened to the stimulus money too! I'm not a big fan of banksters…
Hugo Maximo - Thanks again.
amanda - Davey? LOL.
khard12 - I can't speak for you, but CFO of Goldman Sachs strikes more fear and loathing in my heart than anything.
TheMidge28 - Thanks. Without giving anything away, you are on the right track.
Andaren - I think this bear has wandered into too many suburban neighborhoods and has grown accustomed to human food, literally.
Jabali - Thanks and good to see you back.

Have a great week. See you next Monday and keep on keepin' on!
