Katie, this comic is amazing! Love your expressive art, relatable characters, and suggestive yet subtle humor. These days I look forward to your updates more than the rest of PA. Some, or a lot of story/character credit must go to Adam, I suppose
@j-mental yeah, i can't think of anything else those look like other than a pack of marlboros. though it's empty, so either she just collected it cause it looks cool, or she already smoked em up, johnny.
I'm not sure Lumpy is the same character that fell off the zipline. For one thing, his skin is noticeably darker. For another, the tooth sticking out of his mouth in panel 2 is in the exact same spot as the missing tooth of the boy in the previous comic.
I'm quite liking the continuous arc that we've been having for the past few comics. It's helping to develop the world a lot more. The one of comics were cute, but this seems to be going somewhere.
Nice to see there actually are kids adapting to the wilderness somewhat successfully.
I always thought that the interesting thing about this comic is the way that no matter what happens, the kids just try to be kids for the most part. They don't ask why or how they ended up at the camp, they don't try to escape, they don't try to embrace the madness and start horror-movie type cults. They just play and socialize and enjoy themselves any way they can.
That really does reflect how kids experience the world, in a way. As a kid you're often put in scary or uncomfortable situations for reasons you're not capable of fully understanding. You don't have the control over your environment that most adults have, so you just take what comes and try to make the best of it. I really like how well this strip illustrates that.

Not really, there's a common cat.
I wonder what Seventeen & Brian will think about this new development?
Camp Weedonwantcha makes my day on Tuesdays and Fridays. Thanks Katie, for making my favorite webcomic
The axe stuck in the wall does not bode well. Then again, neither do most things in this webcomic.
Great comic as always, this is really starting to remind me of the old kiwi(?) TV show "The Tribe", just waiting for the crazies to show up!
I feel most gratified.
