63-1: Opportunity

Whew. I wasn't sure I'd manage to get this done early enough this week, but there you go.

I was actually very proud of my rough draft for today's comic, but I don't know how well it turned out in the long run. I guess I'll let you guys judge that. The color always tends to screw it up a bit…

I'm not sure what card game T and Cappy are playing. I assume Magic: The Gathering, or something. Then again, I don't think they're QUITE as geeky as the people I've hung out with. (Maybe Cappy.) It's probably just Go Fish.

Meanwhile, I prove yet again that I cannot retain a character design if I don't draw them enough. It probably shows, since the only defining features I have for Cappy are "Squared off and wears a cap and blazer," the only defining features for T are his hair and somewhat drowsy/stoned expression, and Lizzie… God, I don't know. I think she might get prettier every time I draw her though, which may say something about Gary's mindset.

Speaking of Gary… I hope I'm doing his hair growth properly this school year. It might've grown back out too quickly.
