The original strip that I submitted to the paper was revised a bit for the simple reason that I wasn't satisfied with the drawing I did. It was done in a hurry and not through the usual process of creating a thumbnail and weighing the dialogue for impact and delivery. But there wasn't simple about the revision. I had to tweak the angles here and there, I positioned and repositioned the characters over again and what I initially thought to be a weak joke turned out to be workable after I gave it a once-over. Here it is and I hope you all like it.
