You know, in looking back at this page, I hope it doesn’t seem as if I’m narrating this thing.  The dialog in the first few panels is spoken by Appalachian Shadows watching from the sidelines, not me, Rob, the story-teller.  That would be just, frankly, silly.

The last panel is situated on a hilltop, where powerlines cross a clearing.  The setting overlooks the town below at night.  Very much based on places I once lived in Pennsylvania (I wrote a post on it a few days ago).  In hindsight, I’m not sure if one could get away with a campfire in that sort of clearing, but it just seemed artsy and cool so I wanted to draw it.  Plus DS could always easily put out the fire if he needed to.

A few more pages to go, then issue #5 will kick off.
