Comic #893: Papa Can You Hear Me? (Patreon)

Raids from the opposing factions on towns used to screw up all kinds of quest turn ins.

Sometimes I spend an inordinate amount of time on the most uninteresting parts of the comic making process. This time it was on the speech bubbles in the final panel.

At first I had Anduin on the right side of Varian's corpse. This lead to a void of space on the far left of the panel while the speech bubbles were over the top of Nyte and Gigz' heads. This meant Nyte and Gigz had to be a bit smaller in the background. I then realized I could put the void between Anduin and the ladies by swapping Anduin to the left side. I then flipped panels 1, 2, and 3 to keep Anduin's facing consistent.

However, even with that change I still had issues. Originally I had Gigz on the right side of Nyte, and I had to make one speech bubble travel underneath the other, over Nyte's head, and point down to Gigz and I HATED how it looked. I finally realized like an idiot that Gigz could be on the left, and that simplified things.
