[[A hand casts the shadow of a goose.]]
ISABELLA (GOOSE SHADOW): …I’m sorry I’m late. I snuck out as quickly as I dared.
O DUCKWORTH!
This secrecy weighs heavy on my spirit! Must our love be confined to darkness forever?

[[Anothe hand casts the shadow of a duck.]]
DUCKWORTH (DUCK SHADOW): Steady, Isabella. The tremors in your voice are natural. For ours is a love that dares not squawk its name!
Come, let me–WHAT’S THAT!
WHO’S THERE!

[[Both hands cast the shadow of the farmer.]]
FARMER: Ah HAH! I KNEW there was some shenanigans goin’ on back here! You two lovebirds are in a HEAP o’trouble!
I shoulda KNOWN!

[[Pull back to reveal HIS MAJESTY.]]
FOOTMAN (offpanel): Your majesty, the Prime Minister’s here to see you?
HIS MAJESTY: Tell him he will have to WAIT

20 years ago (in photocomic form)

A young David Malki !, Steve Carey, and Ryan North, June 2006.

The computers tell me it was 20 years ago, June 9, 2006, that I arrived in New York for my first-ever comic convention as an exhibitor, MoCCA.

It was an important trip for me, a milestone in what would go on to become my career.

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
