I guess, when hearing campfire tales, you’re supposed to identify with either the main character, or someone who sacrifices for the main character- depending on your age and familial standing.
Meaning, of course, you’re either thinking “She shouldn’t leave that kid all alone!” or “She’s protecting her kid like any good parent, backed into a corner, would do”
As long as you’re not identifying with the Wukilar, Okay?
Name in these things are weird, aren’t they?
Ezekiel isn’t a popular name these days, but try to tell a story about the mythic past and see if there isn’t a Zeke in there somewhere.
‘Reckon’. That there’s a fine, fine word and I’m sorry it’s not really common parlance, these days.
You could be reckoning up sums, or you could reckon whether you might not have another piece of pie after dinner, or you might have a reckoning over the thug that took your parents in the alley on the night that led you down the path of being a super-vigilante. I reckon.
Oooooh and the sequel to the Wukilar Movie should be called Wukilar: The Reckoning. Maybe the third or fourth sequel. You know, when movie franchises get really really good. Like Jason Goes To Space or whatever that one was called.
I looked at some artisanal soap at an artist market here around last Christmas.
Just couldn’t get myself to buy any, even though it looked good enough to eat.
So, when they make the Wukilar Movie (anybody know folks that make movies? Tell ’em to talk to me about Wukilars.) I think they can just use this cartoon as the storyboards, and keep all the dialogue the way it is. Yep, that’d be best.
Also, look at that cinematic sky in the second panel. That there is a heck of a sky, don’t you think?
Now, we’re back to comparing the two story styles…
Mine, and the kid’s. Mine is easier to color, that’s all I know.
Li’l Beau has some issues, don’t you think?
If you’re a Patron at www.patreon.com/Hubris, you’ll already have seen this comic strip, and a little information about how and why it looks different than the usual storyline of Hubris.com.

I got really excited writing this bit. It was a single piece of narrative that needed working out in full before I could dive in.
It runs at the outside edge of what I think people are willing to put up with (I use GoComics.com as a measure of that kind of thing. Folks there are far more ready to complain than you guys here.) and if the story had run any longer, I might have ditched this whole bit and just sent everyone off to bed. As it is, I have a few cartoons in mind for the first night of the Fest that are now pushed back by a couple of weeks.
Exciting. Entertaining. Fun. At least to me. If you guys don’t enjoy it, don’t hesitate to say so. I enjoy your feedback, of course.
Do the people who keep setting off fireworks buy too many around the 4th of July, or do they buy extra so they can keep shooting them, or do they get arrested for shooting them on the 4th, and finish shooting their supplies after they’ve been to court, or what?
