So, this is the end of Chutney Point, starting here on page 141. The story was only originally supposed to be 140 pages, but once I started scripting the second half, I realized that I needed an extra 12 pages to wrap everything up, which made Act 7 almost a double-length issue. It was kind of cool, though - sort of a bonus for people who were reading it, I suppose. Anyway, this is the start of those extra 12 pages.

So, after Chutney Point concludes, I won't have any new comics to put up in its place, unfortunately. I'd been hoping to use the time running CP to get enough material together on Ellie that I could start running those first pages immediately, but my entire year was spent writing and rewriting the script. And now I'm beginning to rewrite it again, as rough layouts. So after six drafts now, I still don't have any finished artwork from the book which I could run. I've been getting anxious to try a couple finished pages to see how they'll look, though, and might try to do up one or two this week as I continue on the roughs. I've also got 'The Night I Flew' all scanned in, ready to be cleaned up, colored, and posted, and will probably try to have that up in the meantime, until I've got enough Ellie work completed to start posting it.

I really don't want to let the 'current comic' section go blank...
