This was supposed to be the original strip for today, but it had too many words, was more spiteful than your regular CUEK fare, and didn’t serve to advance the story arc at all. So I’ve included it here.

You can’t make this shit up, folks. Sometimes the comedy just writes itself.
For the sake of continuity, I’m going to wrap up this story arc as soon as possible and kill off Purple. She never really made enough of an impact on Zeke to deserve anything more. It would have been unfair to any readers interested in their story if I had just ended it because of real-life differences, so I’m going to continue it until I figure out how exactly she is going to be removed from the strip.
Once that has been dealt with, we need to establish a new colored-bow-girl for our tragic protagonist. Poll time!
In regards to the previous post — thank you for all your feedback, both positive and otherwise. It helps in terms of me understanding people’s points of view and being insightful in how people viewed the strip. Extremely insightful.
That being said, if you ever have something to say to me, don’t be afraid to speak your mind because I will not take offense.
