Like clockwork, here’s Mike’s fashion closet.  Some readers have commented that it’s kind of weird to think of Mike wearing things that aren’t either his original black t-shirt or the Shortpacked! uniform.  I agree!  Well, I agreed more about a year ago, before I started giving Mike some other things to wear, here and there.  For example, above’s dark gray tee over the black-sleeved shirt is something I introduced in Shortpacked!‘s “This Man, this Manhattan” storyline just out of sheer necessity, since, well, he needed a change of clothes.  Since then, it’s been easier.   Mike wears browns, blacks, and grays.  Not so hard, huh?   Just had to break the ice.

I imagine Mike also has a collection of t-shirts that would make people mad, in certain company.  He loves to wear his “Twilight” shirt to the local comic book store, for example.  Feel free to brainstorm your own.

Backgrounds!

Indiana University denizens should recognize today’s strip’s setting as the northern sidewalk of Third Street.  Here’s an image of the first panel as I’m starting to put characters onto the background.

Man, Google Maps Street View is a lifesaver.

Amazi-girl!

Here’s Amazi-Girl’s “model sheet.”  This is all she wears, so there aren’t any alternate outfits to show you.  Well, okay, maybe eventually she’ll get some arctic gear or Tiger Force deco, but we’ll save that for later.

Amazi-girl’s reveal: Director’s cut! Sort of.

Originally Thursday and Friday’s strips were combined into a single four-panel strip.  But after finishing it, and realizing this was how I was ending my Thursday, leaving me with no idea how to cap the week off with a Friday, I decided to go a different direction.  I drew some extra panels and expanded the one strip into two, prolonging the doubt as to the vigilante’s identity, plus providing a few extra beats for Danny’s reaction.  I think it reads a lot better!  Plus we got that extra day of people trying to hammer out whether this was Sal or Amazi-Girl or, uh, Faz.

Definitely glad I got that last panel of Danny in there at the end.  It wouldn’t have supported a Friday strip all by itself!  My retooling gave me the timing I really wanted.

Anyway, this strip is the last one in the first Dumbing of Age storyline.  Monday starts “Uphill from Here,” featuring everyone’s first day at classes.  Fans of my older work might yet see even more familiar faces.
