Hey folks, apologies to anyone who went looking early for the new page– the holiday Monday here threw me off with the timing thing. 
Also: hey, it’s Aria! It’s been a long time. We haven’t seen her since, holy cow, the end of Chapter Nine. Back in the black-and-white days. 
EDIT: Also Also (Seriously, this should have been the first “Also” but I’ve spent so much time looking at this page, it’s weird, it’s like I’ve forgotten the big reveal that was on it): OMG PATTY.
Even in Europe, it’s still Tuesday. So you kept your schedule just fine.
Cool to see how, after the dramatic resolution of one sequence, and a very short respite, you revisit another subplot and ratchet up the tension again. You really understand your plotting.
On a totally different subject: I added a one sentence explanation of why I think Galaxion is awesome to by latest blog post. (Technically, the explanation itself is just one word.)
BTW, the one sentence explanation of why I think Galaxion is awesome can be found here:Single Sentence Scrutiny.
Oh no, Patty… hi Aria!
Aria looks kind of haggard and haunted there. She probably has insight as to what’s going on with Patty (and hopefully she did not cause it).
I’ve read the original flimsies.. darnit, I was hoping Patty had a different fate here!
The view of the hat rack in panel is suddenly so POIGNANT, yaknow… Something that was always humorous suddenly filled with a dark mood.
She shouldn’t have been wearing her “Jump-Drive Hat.”
I’m sure there were those who warned her about that,
but she said, “Pfff! What could happen?”
Ahhhh! Poor Patty.
I’ve missed Aria.

Is Patty a goner?
Erg, did Zan have Meisti programming to disable the ship, and Aria to punish Patty?
Noo… not the kind-hearted hat lover…
Or is that cat lover? Regardless she’s a thoroughly nice person, it’d be damned cruel if she died…
