One of the fun problems about having a “cast” of characters that’s deep, and a list of story ideas that’s even deeper, is that I can often lose track of plot threads I meant to pick up. For instance, we haven’t seen or heard from the Scarlet Witch or Kingo since they made their first appearance over a year ago! I was so pleased with that comic! I kept meaning to build upon it, but other ideas just pushed themselves to the front of my mind, over and over again. It’s easy to say that ideas will emerge from your brain only when they’re good and ready, but in my experience, it’s just as often that you hammer an idea into shape by actually working on it (which is part of why the last two weeks of comic strips featured jokey set-ups for today’s installment).
