Yes, I really AM still working on the comic, to the point where I almost forgot to upload any holiday stuff. Whoops! but here, have something in color to make up for it.


I assume we're never going to escape remakes of A Christmas Carol, even in the Far Future when no one remembers what the heck the original setting was. That's how tradition happens; if you've got to have a reason you might as well not bother.

So are the three people wearing costumes back from a stage play, or has Christmas Carol just turned into a set of outfits, or what? Probably some of both, with a few other weird additions. We've already turned it into musicals and Muppet productions; The Future can do what it likes.

In the background, one grand old tradition that I doubt will ever change, the self-medicating of the older members of the party. Some things are eternal.

Side note: I wasn't sure what to do for Leda's Ghost of Christmas Future costume, since it's supposed to be not Death per se, but the embodiment of the watcher's worst fears. And then I realized she wouldn't bother at all unless she could harass her best friend, and Kade's worst fear is *almost anything breathing*, so a big cape that could hide stuff was just fine.

I think it amply enough in color to demonstrate how lucky we all are that I don't work in color. :P It was fun to play around with, though!
And yes, I highly recommend drawing some nonsense now and then. It's the only way I can excuse myself trying out new things, and I have to try new things!:)

I love this! The interaction between Leda & Kade is great, as always!

Haha, thanks! Kade's general overreactions are in part based on a couple friends of mine, and I have to admit the urge to troll them constantly is nigh-irresistible. So I take it out in comics instead, maybe?XD
