Fear & Loathing at the Breakfast Table

There -- finally, a strip that isn't too vastly wordy. Also a strip that doesn't have anything in the way of dynamic action (the only real movement is Halifax waving his hand and then standing up) but still manages to look nice -- and also panels one and three are largely repeated off panel two... and it's not that noticeable.
I know. I'm scared too.

This is the kind of strip I can be happy with -- though I would have spent longer on the background had time not caught up to me. I should probably make huge PotatoShop files of backgrounds for various rooms so I can just drag-and-drop them into strips and avoid all this agonising over what to do for a background on a talking heads comic.

Also, thanks go to my brother, who obviously paid attention to earlier rants in which I mentioned that I like drawing facial expressions and need to work on those in order to make talking heads strips interesting -- he bought me a reference book of facial expressions for my birthday. So, thank you, Paul. Even if you won't read this until you get back from Malawi.
