Endtown by Aaron Neathery for September 21, 2011

So Holly’s attention will wander And she spots a face in the sand It’s bear-like, not monster — we ponder Just what that new player has planned But Petey’s not tied-in to Blackie As close as I’d previously assumed Not “friend” it seems. No, more like “lackey” But that story still must be exhumed… =|====/ Level Head Vote for Endtown 2.0 And for Doc Rat, too The Endtown Forum

IT’S A TRAP

Would that bear be the token “toy showing the futility of otherwise total annihilation”?There’s always a teddy bear or childs doll that survives – so famously so they made Starbug of the same stuff….

It looks like it might be a Mutt.

I guess that I am blind to the teddy bear?? The only thing I see that resembles a bear is Peteys hands clasped behind his back???

Either its a trap OR…its going to involve something to do with children. Either someone wanting some or someone who had some before the trouble hit.

Could be what’s left of Petey.

Aaron, once again your artwork is not done justice by GoComics. We are losing details of your fine drawings. I also thought Holly was looking at a rock until I zoomed way in (multiple cntrl +) after reading Level_Head’s comment. I use a high-res 24" monitor and could only tell it was a very fuzzy teddy bear at extreme zoom. This is the same issue we have when there are stars in the night scenes—they just tend to disappear. Can GoComics give you a larger panel size?

Or at least turn on the zoom function in the corner linked to a higher rez.

Petey may have not been Blackie’s love life. She may be attached to him for different reasons, like say, if Petey was like a little brother that she happened to be extremely fond of, or a comrade in war, although the little brother would make her more attached than if Petey was just a comrade.
