Come on Malachi, this is your chance at doing something great. Just suck it up and play Administrator.

This new character has an adorable hair style.

Malachi's face in panel 5 is the best. The best.

@Truelink: I agree, Mal would be a great director.

D'aww, I love the design on blue shirt girl!

So, do the different colored shirts indicate different housing locations for the campers? I don't think I remember a blue shirt, so I wonder if we'll start seeing some new campers pop up with blue shirts on. It would have been interesting if Katie gave all the kickstarter kids their own colored shirt and own bunk that they all lived together in.

Blue-shirt girl previously appeared in Coup. At least five other campers have worn blue, Redface kid, camper peeing in lake, Glasses camper and two campers when the feral cats were released.

Edit: Actually, blue-shirt girl appeared first in Sleight of Hand.

Edit: And more blue shirts: Ratkid, one of the girls with freckles, and what I think was Steve in an early appearance.

Now look what Seventeen has got you into Malachi. Something good I hope.

I love the first page of the list of things that Malachi thinks he can do. Except that last one. Hopefully Brian will keep Malachi from throwing any knives.

@Invisible,

Ahh, thank you. I guess I never took mental notes of the shirt colors until this comic. But you're right, blue shirts have popped up before. Though I DO still think it would have been cool to give all kickstarter campers a purple shirt or something.

@Invisible, @Mr Fish 86,

Looking back through earlier comics, it looks like the shirt colors change by age groups. Considering the height of the kids that wear them, the older kids look like they wear green, and all the blue shirts are very young. Middle ages are the orange.

@subtle

ooooohhhhh ok. Yea that makes sense if the shirts are based off of age rather than bunk location. I wonder where everyone gets their camp supplies from to begin with. Like when Malachai first got to camp, who gave him his camp clothes? Was there a ceremony? Is there a master camper (maybe Collin) who visits each new camper with a set of clothes and bunk assignments? Were the clothes and bunk assignments just mysteriously waiting for him in a box when he first arrived? Or did his mother just give him the camp clothes and bunk assignments on his way to the camp? and IF his mom gave Malachai his stuff, then who gave it to her?....

This blue shirt has sparked a lot of questions about the camp for me!







P.S. I finally got around to making a profile picture. I felt naked without one :P

Invisible

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. But Katie and Adam have built a detailed world and things that appear early on do tend to reappear later with more significance (Dani's book, the skull in Purdy's treehouse, etc.). And yeah, after thinking about it, I started wondering, too. I assume there's some kind of "orientation" for new campers and they receive their camp shirt.

Is the violin okay without violin? I mean, there does seem to be a lot of violins nowadays.
