Watcher in the Woods

Generally speaking, while Mistake has been in peril before, he’s never really been AWARE of it. As such it’s a bit interesting to me to have him be aware that something’s wrong. I think it helps sell the tone.

Grainy Security Cam Footage

Since this kind of reveal is rarely hilarious, I decided to front load the strip with some humor. Although the line about “Internet Speculation” is KINDA a joke, referring to the crazy amount of guesses about the identity of the Mystery Trucker that’s been a constant since this story has began.

That all said, PLEASE tell me I’m not the only person who remembers “Parker Lewis Can’t Lose”.

Overblown Summer Storyline

By this point, I think it should be obvious that the gang can just SMELL these stories coming. Still, I like the drama of Mistake’s discarded goggles laying there.

Surviving the Coup

As we get more and more into the overall storyline, I’ll be dropping more clues as to the identity of who or what our mystery villains are.

Drawing a Blank

I DO so hate the occasional need for exposition in the strip, so I tend to draw an obnoxious amount of attention to the idea… It’s one of TWO lines that break the 4th wall in this strip. I also feel the need to mention the idea of Future Mistake, who has been brought up a bunch of times in the forum as a possible suspect in the identity of the mystery trucker.
