I am inordinately fond of the little floof at the end of her braid.
When Captain Barber says he will get "no more than he deserves" this is not necessarily a good thing for the person involved.
He'd get no punishment than he deserves, though. Which would mean no death penalty.
Community service! :D
Captain Barber isn't a charity, mister.
After everything they've been through, I do belive Will deserves a cake. Get baking, Nicola
I would not hold my breathe on that. When it was suggested in the Q&A ( [https://widdershinscomic.co...](https://widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/character-q-and-a-2-march-2017 "https://widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/character-q-and-a-2-march-2017") ) that she might bake for Mal the answer was a flat "No." It could be a specific refusal to do something nice for Mal, but I suspect that it was a more general refusal of the concept of her baking at all.
Ahh thank you so much! It looks really good ^_^ He was super surprised when he saw XD
Hi, Mez!
Oh ho, is Eliza going to talk to Nicola about a certain sister? :3
It was inevitable when she heard that name. I can't claim I called it, but I definitely saw it coming. :D
Oh!
Oh yes, of course.
I can imagine two or three questions Eliza may ask Nicola, and, through without malice from the latter, get a completely accurate yet completely misleading answer.
"Captain Barber, would you happen to have a globe I can borrow?"
To call back to a [previous page description](https://widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/april-12th-2019 "https://widdershinscomic.com/wdshn/april-12th-2019"): This is all very lovely, but Eliza's got facts to discover, which are her favorite thing.
"A little bit of a pity. The gallows here took a few weeks to put up. If only there were a way of repurposing them."
After a bit of ingenuity, a basin of water was placed below the trapdoor, and the lever was fitted with a small target. The ideal fixture for politicians to soapbox upon.
I wonder if the upcoming conversation will include Eliza finding out who the witch actually is...
I am sure that Eliza will ask about the Deadly Sins incident. I am uncertain as to whether Nicki would be willing to answer any of her questions though. I suspect she tends to avoid giving away important or personal information unnecessarily, but I am not sure how she views this particular topic.
I have a question that isn't specifically about this page:
Why are the comic pages formatted as JPEGs, but the images on the cast page are formatted as GIFs? Usually images that compress well as GIFs compress poorly as JPGs, and vice versa. Are you making the comic pages using different tools than what you used on the cast page? Or is there another reason?
no real reason, it doesn't really matter about gif>jpg or vice versa as they're all psd or lip when i'm working on them anyway
Thanks for the answer:)
Yup. Eliza's got a Barber to follow.
Aww, Mr. Rana looks like a sweetie! I hope he features in future comics :)
I love how proud he looks in panel 2!
SHE'S A WITCH... 's Sister?
"Calm down kid" omg why is Knotty so adorable? He is pure and Nikki is good :D
