Hey guys, just to let you know I’ve put together a Patreon page where you can go and help support Widdershins by way of monthly donations!
The comic is still free, of course, and will always be, but if you go there and subscribe to donate even a little every month, it’d really help me out, and if we scrape together enough as a group I can clean up the website by removing a bunch of the ads.
Also, subscribers will get exclusive looks at sketches for the next story, and beyond that, perhaps, too! Not to mention my eternal thanks for your help! If you've enjoyed this last story and are looking forward to the next, I hope you'll consider donating!
Cast: Alexa King, Edie Shaw, Gladys Shaw, Mrs Sykes, Samuel

Did...did she just drug Sam?!
I dunno - i DO know that i wouldn't drink anything either one of those two handed me until she drank it first.
And it still might not be safe.
A very fair point. One I am not sure how he missed. Maybe its the post victory euphoria. Any case we can guess she has mischief on her mind in giving Sam a drink. Its just how she is. Maybe she fancies him? Also, despite being from a much earlier time he does seem to have a good mind. Just too stoic.
"Just too stoic." Don't think that will be a problem for our two lovely flappers.
Maybe he’s just decided if the green-haired black lady with the tats and the piercings wasn’t dangerous (to him! — she sure was dangerous to Gluttony!), then maybe whatever surprises these two have for him will also turn out alright in the end.
If she did, it's probably because she and her sister are going to try to bring some muscle back with them to their own time. And of course, Sam appears a not unhandsome fellow to boot.
That's true. If the sisters are heading back to their own time, where they left off is a spot where they could use some help.
The future is about to hold something just a little bit terrifying for Samuel!
Hm. Wondering now what happened to the "butler".
I don't think Gladys drugged him; I think she broke through his reticence for drinking spirits.
Would that I could, unfortunately, all donations of any kind are suspended until I get my student loans under control.
I'm hoping that's not one of her "special" drinks...
I'm hoping it is! Would be great for the sisters to get some help in that particular situation. Also, the thought of Gladys, Sam, and Edie going on adventures in 1927(?) full of excitement, alcohol, and Badger vs Bear matches makes me snicker.
"Perhaps the future is not as terrifying as I had thought; people still lose consciousness when I put them in a headlock."
Moral of the story: Eugenics is bad, but not in the way you'd think
I...I wouldn't trust that drink.
Yay, a bit more Sam before the end of the story! I just wonder why he never made it onto the "cast" page...
He's got a tag, I've just been slow about putting a picture/description on it, same with Sykes! I'll get it done soon, hopefully.
Is no-one going to take this opportunity to remonstrate with Mr Cartwright Junior?
He didn't know what year he's from, right? I have a crazy theory...
Post-apocalyptic future? Post-independence Scotland?
He looks like he comes from a time before the hotel was built, but that can't be so because the hotel needs to exist in his time in order to eat him. Also his knowledge of sleeper holds and flour bombs is anachronistic for the medieval period.
This a really old comment. But upon re-reading the archive I have to tell you.The knowledge of flour being really flammable is old as making flour. But a very good guess.
Is that a good idea??
Uhhh... She... she isn't planning to drug him and drag him along to her spot in the timeline as her personal boy-toy, is she? ^^; Is she?
Ah. Amazing how different he looks without the hair pomade, huh?
I'd like to comment on what a tough old bird Mrs. Sykes is. I mean, the owner of the Gula must be half her age at best, and she is helping him out of the building! ;)
