    I love the house on chicken legs… and the flying mortar and pestle.

    And it makes me wonder whether Baba Mouse has such magical equipment socked away.

    Those magical grannies!

    I AM SO EXCITED,

    Been waiting a long time so just for fun, I went back and read all of the strips from the beginning.

    I am now all caught up and waiting with breath that is bated for October 2!

    Until then, I will see you all over at BCN!

    8-D

    I can’t tell you how much I love these characters and their adventures. I’m so happy to have their re-awakening from Creative Chrysalis to look forward to.

    Please, please, please put this strip out as a book. A real, arcane, solid, non-digital book. I would buy it/them. GREAT strip. Perfect snowy Sunday afternoon reading.

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! I didn’t even mind waiting for 3x per week, but…! Ok, I’ll wait. But impatiently. Baba Yaga might be a relative of mine….I’m certainly old enough, although I don’t sport a cool glass eye.

    You might look through Family Portraits, too’ the one of Vesper looks particularly fetching.

    Let’s see. Besides Salme and Clover in the center who is there.

    1. Olwen in a wash tub with Hickory flying overhead. Well since Olwen left Hickory with Salem and took Pepper with her so they could communicate. So this looks like she and Hickory will be reunited. Hopefully this is a good sign that Olwen will comeback safe as otherwise Hickory is going to enter another portal. And who or what is that in the wash tub with her? Don’t think it’s Pepper, Georgia doesn’t seem to have showed the same character twice.

    2. Looks like Grandma Yaga above Salem and Clover (okay, their great-great grandma Yaga since she’s supposed to be Olwen’s grandma). What’s the coloring mean? Probably nothing. Suppose it could mean she’ll be dead and that’s her spirit. However, this reminds me that when Olwen was first talking to Morbus about training Clover, he mentioned he thought she was dead. And Olwen’s comment was to the effect that she was still around. Which makes me wonder if she’ll be physically appearing. I’d made the comment Wednesday about forgetting Vesper was on the other side cause she could have helped Salem. But now I realize maybe Grandma Yaga could help Salem. Or maybe color has to do with folks on the otherside.

    3. Above the weird chicken house, possibibly Rasputin, though the beard is a bit short. Of all the greyed figures this one seems the most likely to be a ghost. Seems similar shading she’s used for him before. Stupid grin could also point to it being Offal, though why so light in color if it is?

    4. Pepper in the lower right. Again, greyed out which worries me a little. Could just be greyed out characters will be on the other side of the portal.

    5. An Iskmaith skull and a human skull. Perhaps just two of the skulls in Mr. Wigglesworth’s brother’s collection. But the way their looking at each other makes me worry for Vesper and Mr. Wigglesworth. Hopefully I’m wrong and it is just from the collection.

    That is indeed one heck of a cliffhanger! I’m grateful I discovered BCN first and then this other wonderful world only recently, so I don’t have quite as long to wait! But as with all of Georgia’s beautiful and cleverly crafted creations, I’m sure it will be well worth the wait.

    I think when we start up again we’ll find out that only 12 hours have passed for Salem and the rest. For Olwen, Clover, Vesper, Pilot, Winnie, and Mr Wigglesworth several years will have passed.

    I wonder how Georgia is going to handle that in the story?

    Will we get several weeks of seeing the years of fighting & hiding in the Ice Walker realm and then the return to Salem?

    Or will the October strips start with Salem summoning them back after 12 hours and having Clover be three years older, Pilot as a young man, (Vesper with a couple half demon kids?) and then get the story of their trials and tribulations in flashbacks?

    I just hope the rest of August and then September go by as quickly as May, June, and July seemed to. And I hope August and September don’t drag on forever the way May, June, and July did.

    Yes I have totally lost my sense of time. It started when I retired the end of September, but now that my weeks are no longer marked off with Sunday for Church, Monday for Lunch with Friends, and Friday Coffee with Bookclub, I have no idea what day it is. And with no Monday Wednesday Friday Swan Eaters, I’ll get even worse. Thankfully Sundays are still Big Unconnected Breaking Cat News day or I’d have no way to tell one week from the next.

    Is there a place where there are more of the Swan Eaters that are before what GoComics has?

    Like BCN does? I want to make sure that I’m starting from the VERY beginning. The first comic on GoComics looks to me like the story is already in progress.

    Friday night it’ll be time to party

    Saturday we’re gonna be sorry

    Monday will come and we’ll party once again

    We’re all waiting for the fun

    Olwen won’t be hurting any one

    And we’ll all enjoy the Hawkers once again

    Vesper’s been stranded on the other side

    And she won’t leave Mr. Wigglesworth’s side

    Olwen rode Winnie in the rain

    And she told Clover not to drive

    But they’ll make it home alive

    So Pilot said that only proves that their insane

    You will be right

    Swan Eaters starts this Friday

    And it just may be Salem you’ve been looking for

    Turn on the lights

    Let’s all just watch the fun

    You may be wrong, but this I know

    The Hawkers are coming back
