He did say Pete was a sucker. Remember? (Sorry; for some reason I tend to always have, like, one joke that's left over from the previous chapter. There's one like that in Ch. 3, too.)

Pete's a nice guy… well, kinda. He'll do nice things, but then get all condescending about it. Pete's character probably took the longest for me to really develop; he's- eh- less "flamboyant" than most of the others, for sure. If you've been readin' from the start, it might seem like his personality changes a bit through this chapter; really he just gets progressively annoyed at Victor. I don't blame him- I get annoyed with the guy, too. Vic's pretty clueless; and also kind of a jerk-ass. Okay, total jerk-ass.

Also: I sent in a milestone post offering the (accidentally) fraudulent information that "The Hub" updated twice a day. That is obviously, uh, wrong. I meant to say twice a week, which you regulars already know, of course. So yeah, if you're new here- ignore that. I'm an idiot. So much so that I'm getting a tattoo tomorrow that says "IDIOT". No, really. I am. My appointment's at 4.

First off: Congrats threeeyeswurm and Anise Shaw for gettin' a well-deserved feature for Anatta! Hauntingly beautiful art- with plenty of those insanely detailed background posters that I'm ever so fond of- and a helluva smart story. Check it out, fools. Oh, and vote while yer at it- the incentive right now is ten kinds of badassedness, too.

@katfeete: Well, I writes about what I knows. ;) I've actually checked out your comic a few times before because, well- I reads about what I knows, too.
@patrickdevine: Who says he *does* see anything? I'm not gonna pretend like I thought about that when I was drawin' him, though.
@Avie: The sisters who run the shelter that Vic showed up at in Ch. 1 are runnin' a scam where they lure folks in and eat 'em. Which actually is pretty much what the Church does in real life, except more- er, metaphorically.
@zaymac: Well, obviously he's leaving the bar too early, right? ;)
@madisonchance: I swear t'God, they *do* leave the bar! These next few chapters barely have the bar in 'em at all, in fact. It's just kinda the axis of the story, I reckon.
@Custard Trout: Can't say that I've slept in a box. Uh, more than once, that is. It probably would've been more comfortable without the sleet. (Damned ill-advised trip to France! I hate the fuckin' Alps and their stupid tourist hotels that won't let you sleep in the lobbies!)
mbloom: Heh. Without pushovers, I might be penniless and living on the street. No, seriously- my partner probably should've kicked me to the curb like, 5 years ago. ;)
