Updating is still a bit irregular, but the story moves forward. I played with a different inking technique in this strip, mostly out of an envy of the variations in line thickness I see in kevinjdog's and rain_luong's work. I'm kinda pleased with it.

I do a lot of my inking with a brush.

Been trying to get TKD to try it for years.

I smear pen ink. I worry about real ink. ;)

Faber Castell PITT Pens, Thomas. You GOTTA try them. you can ink and ink and ink and ink and not get a Sharpie induced headache.

The ink dries fairly quickly and does not smudge once it does.

Ain't nothing that stands in for a real brush. Really.

I've tried brush-inking, but I can't manage smooth lines. :(

Well we both know that brush-pens are the gateway drug, now don't we ;)

There are several relatives that I have that I wouldn't mind replacing with ferrets, by the way... ;)
