Ava Troubles



This is another thing that developed in April. It's based on Anne's discovery of the fact that Ava is really, really easy to guilt. . . and so Anne used that to con Ava into basically pulling Anne's weight for her. It didn't go so well for Ava, that's why Rachel had to bail her out. Ava was trying to support two college students on one part time minimum wage worker's salary. Or she was working nights and schooling days, which did pay the rent but didn't quite cover anything else and certainly wasn't good for her health. This would grow into a huge guilt complex which would come to define Ava's character. After months of holding out, Anne is finally starting to mess her up.

 Again. . . sorry about missing days. If anyone's even reading this. (Anyone who is, please signal as such in the comments section. . . I don't expect to see any such signals for another couple of decades.) The prerequisite moping out of the way, let's get to the funny stuff. "But it's like Potions! No, it's worse than Potions!" "Good, good. . . let your hate fuel you." In cold or damp weather, Anne has bones that still won't let her forget it.

Introducing Rachel! And Other Comics

Image
This is the first appearance of Rachel Bucket (no, I'm not kidding) in TSA. She was my attempt to write a Christian character, although she was originally from a failed post apocalyptic (also not kidding). It never even got a word written down, and that was mostly what channeled into her character as a TSA cast member. The original line was, "NEVER say that to a Christian!!!" Like Ava's intro comic, it's a religious gag and I wrote a second (third?) copy because I crammed a ton of words into the third panel and then doubted they were legible. Here it is. . . Can you read that one better? I hope so. It's about like any other comic I drew after I got bigger panels. (Thank goodness. I can't write that tiny anymore.) Unlike Ava's intro, this is something I do. Not in front of other people, but, if you are for some reason  into reading books of conspiracy theories about how the world is going to end next Wednesday, it is really good for you
