0130b — The Wolves Will Eat You B-hole First (Patreon)

I originally tried to resolve this entire arc in one strip, as "promised," but it would have been 168 panels with 2-point type, and required that magnifying glass like comes with the OED. So, next week you'll get an epilogue which explains, among other things, why Beef is dressed like a Sarajevo roof sniper who lives in his car and showers at the gym. (Well, the real reason is because I used to know a guy like that, but that's not the in-universe reason.) Until then, enjoy these false starts, stutter steps, and NSFW (unless you work at a colonoscopy poster design agency) images.
