Aw, Sal, it’s your old jacket.
on March 30, 2019 at 12:01 amSurprise, it’s Penny! Surprise, she… has the eyepatch now! Because Walky punched her very hard in the face and he’s, like, superpowered. Frankly, it’s a wonder she has her skull.
My original idea was that she’d just start wearing it for no reason because she killed Dargon Chesterfield and thought it’d be funny to steal it from him. Also, I thought it was funny. But I was a fool, and I forgot, and it was too late to fix the strips, and so I wrote in that part where Walky punched her super hard and then she decided to start adopting the eyepatch now. Because I guess she carries it with her! Less funny. A little more satisfying for our protagonists, maybe? Like, she’s been a dick.
Anyway, because this strip and also the previous one is just her monologuing, it was smart of me to give the last strip to various character’s reactions, rather than just having her stand there and gab for two updates in a row.
…did she throw down a smoke bomb for effect, or…
Penny’s dramatic enough I could buy it.
it looks like shrubbery to me but where’s the drama in THAT
Walky had airport Taco Bell for lunch.
Let me just point everyone to the last time we saw the jacket: http://www.itswalky.com/comic/keep-lookin-forward/
Nice cold and not giving her too much screen time it would have gotten old really fast.
Also man so much of this would have been avoided if Linda just fucking parented, “What’s that Beef? No I don’t have time to console you on the fact that you just found out you’re practically adopted I got to spend Christmas catching up with my daughter.”

MatrixEye-Patch ofCreationLeadership!So I’m wondering how long Penny has been carrying around Sal’s old jacket just for this dramatic moment.
A little longer than she’d been carrying Dargon’s eyepatch.
Maybe she’s like Link, keeping dozens of pieces of clothing in some pocket dimension just in case she ever needs them.
A “pocket” dimension actually seems like a pretty good place to keep spare clothes.
She’s standing in a pile of bunting.
Pretty sure putting an eyepatch over a freshly made wound would sting like hell mind but meh she deserves it.
She’s wearing a backless skirt.
