John can't catch a break. I realized I hadn't given Valerie a proper winter costume change so I added a sweater to her get up. I don't know how "hippie" it is, but the style gave me the ability to have her normal top show through the exposed shoulder area. I kinda dig it. I've got the next two comics planned out and it should put a close to the majority of this story arc, but it won't be a nice and tight end. There will still be some threads carrying over which is a good thing since this is primarily a character building storyline. Speaking of this storyline... Of the almost 200 comics and various arcs I've done since ZR started, this one has sparked the most positive feedback that I've ever received. I've gotten several tweets telling me how much people like this arc. I like that people like the comic, but I'm still kind of flabbergasted that this arc is the one people like the best for some reason.... There hasn't been any zombie antics or anything. It's a head scratcher.
