Endtown by Aaron Neathery for September 22, 2014

Chic needs a time out.

A boy and his bug. Yeah, the art was foreshadowing. Chic will leave with Wally and Holly. I have no idea how they will leave, or if they’ll be hurt. It’s a long way to a balloon, and prolly further to a sandrunner.Vote!

“So you’re not a reptilian. In case you haven’t noticed, kid, neither am I.”

Chick has him an attitude.

Chic’s face in the third panel is a wonderful example of Aaron’s skill with expressions. It’s almost supernatural.

Irving?

Chic has a chip on his shoulder, and a bug in his ear..

I would imagine that any non reptilian would have an attitude after spending a few years in Lizardtown.

I said it before….Willard and his rat…named Ben.I just hope this relationship works out better.Bigger question….what’s in the big padlocked box??Chic has yet to remove his hand from it.Even when cuddling Irving.

Kid needs a hug. A long one.

Hey, we can finally find out definitively -Does Chic dig scars?

If Chic was an adult, I’d think he had a few drinks in him…

He might have attitude, but I like this kid.

Seems to me that Chic has had a short but frightening past. The lizards don’t accept him. But it’s surprising that he didn’t say something about her being a mouse. But kids are apt to think that what bad has come his way is prolly his fault, but knows he doesn’t know why he is always on the receiving end of the stick.I’m also surprised that Holly didn’t say “oh you poor thing” or the like. When you just wish people would just leave you alone.Holly loves people and will get that kid on her lap for a hug in no time. I hope.

I guess at some point Chic learned to read and write—-the notes he passed to Wally and then Holly couldn’t have been dictated—-could they?
