Can you hear that whistle blowin’?
I’m not sure if I can.
Notes on the comic: This comic was originally posted in November of 2006. Note the “This is the jail side” sign in the central panel. “Haw!” as Vincent would say. When I originally signed on to this gig, the deal was that I would color the old Macropod comics sequentially from the beginning, inching my way towards the ever-receding horizon of new comics. In 2008, I abandoned that quest and began coloring comics from approximately “whenever I felt” to “whatever I was given.” (I enjoyed the crisp line work and fewer panels of the newer comics too much!) However, every so often I make progress on the original goal. This is one of those days.
The heavenly shine on Vincent’s prison accouterments in the 9th & 10th panels and his twice-as-holy cross (look at that preternatural shine, yours for just 9.95!) make me hanker to see Vincent draw a pietas. Can I make that happen just by wishing? I sure hope so!
