Lost Achewood: Recently discovered missing rows (Patreon)

Strip Title: "Small Times. A Look." Run date: January 15, 2010

As with most things of thirteen years past, I can't remember why I chose to remove the completed fourth row of this comic before running it. It feels perfectly on-voice, and even gives nice closure. Strange choices like this are a decent indicator of the pathologized headspaces one gets into when working alone on the same thing for a decade. Maybe I thought it was too gentle to be Achewood — not cutting enough, no edge, just a soft nostalgic voice-over thing by an aging guy who wishes he could still dress like the kids in Stand By Me. 

Below the omitted row is another row, which would have made the strip needlessly long, and needlessly libelous to Ozzy Osbourne. 

Below that is just a bunch of lines that didn't end up getting used.
