Panel 5: Receptionist: Doctor, we have a bit of an “unusual” case here.

Comic Blog
A lot of friends who read this comic laughed and said the doctor here is dumb. This early in the comic you’ll have to take my word for it, but he is actually a real doctor who has a good head on his shoulders! The bottom left of this comic looks a little bit darker, and that’s because I wrote a book between the time I started the comic and the time I realized I hadn’t yet finished drawing those panels. I tried to match the pen tool back to what I originally used, and it looked right at first, but once I was just about done I realized it was darker. I guess that’s the way it’ll be unless I redo all of the comics later or something!
