am I detecting that someone has a predilection for nasa frogging the forest fauna?
at least in this case, the lunar bound mouse (oh, think of the cheese) is embraced by the warm glow of the open sky ...and not the licking flames of exploded bear cabin.
Wow, oddly enough, I have a character just like her in one of the comics I want to make and she was based off Katie's sketches. Didn't know that Katie thought of the same sort of thing with her.

"Aren't the trees in panel four upside down? Or is the mouse running on the sky?"
Malachi there is briefly over the branch that the trap is attached to, flung there by the force of the mechanism. The mouse is well airborne. See the sky in panel 4 matches the sky in panel 7.
The trees aren't upside down. Malachi has been yanked violently into the air in that panel, while holding the mouse. The mouse has been launched into the stratosphere.
Can someone help me here? I tried to go back and re-read all the story from the start again, but when I click the 'next page' button, it takes me from page 1 ("Dear Mom") to page 23 ("Alternative Medicine"). Also many further pages are also mis-numbered. Are there pages missing, or is it just me?

Hi, if you check the Archive you'll see that Alternative Medicine is really the second comic. I don't know why it is labelled 23 on the address bar. Hope that helps.
It took me a minute to notice the poor mouse is sent flying by the trap, would be nice if we had an idea of how the trap triggered between panel 3 and 4
First time poster. I really love this comic. The world you've created is so dark and fascinating.
I'm a little annoyed that so many people here are saying they like this new character when the only things they know about her is that she's caught a smaller, weaker child in a dangerous trap and threatened to MURDER him.
This is a pet issue of mine, but I'm just so sick of the way society trivializes violence against males. If an older boy caught Seventeen in a snare and threatened her with a shotgun, would everyone be this excited about it?
I really hope this girl turns out to be a villain, or at least faces some comeuppance. Anything but "Hey, it's a strong, independent girl to be our knew friend! Stop whining, Malachai, sure she nearly killed you, but you have a penis and she doesn't, so it's cool."
Nothing against the comic or the author, I'll keep reading regardless. I understand that this is a grim comic, and I fully expect violence and dark humor. We've seen kids suffer and die for the sake of a laugh. I get that. But I think there's a difference between the uncomfortable laughter those strips provoked, and the excitement this one seems to be attracting.
Lambda, not every comic has to host the socio-political struggle of women, men, feminism, mra etcetera. So far this comic has been about kids being left to die of starvation by their parents and possible killer bears and your umbrage is with a pointed gun!?
This comic really hasn't featured any heroes, just kids doing good and bad stuff. Why would it feature a villain?
Also, if it's just a personal pet issue, why expect the worldl/ this cpmic to conform to that?
The cat looks angrily competitive. Maybe it thought it had found lunch.
In case it wasn't clear, my issue was not with the comic, it was with the audience's reaction. That people were saying that they liked new character before they knew anything about her except that she looked like she was being violent towards a smaller, weaker child. Would that be the reaction if the genders were reversed?
Sorry Lambda, but you won't find any SJWs to argue with here. We just read the comic because it's fun, we don't care about trivial shit like that that someone might find "offensive".
(Honestly, I just like the new character because she has a really cool looking design. If a she were male and looked this cool, I'd still like her just as much.)

They... didn't drop in a crate full of those in at some point... did they? Because if so, I'd expect the camp to be a lot more murder-y...
In other news, Pellets the mouse became the first rodent to land on the moon today.

Trees are orientated correctly.

Thanks to this, I went back and looked. She must be one of the "counselors" because her shirt is the same color as Colin's.
