Why isn't the elephant floating? False advertising, if you ask me.
Always beautiful work Tim, love the old Drive In sign!

I enjoyed drawing that sign too.
What was the last movie you saw at a drive in?
Mine was "Conan the Destroyer."

Great! I'm not 1000% up on the story on this page, but It'll clear up. Great page though! Finally we see the elephant.

It can only be a matter of time before "Dark Elephant" shows up...

Again, it's a little hard for me to interpret the clarity of the story when I know a few things. It did take me a couple readings to make the connections in both the text and the images.
I first had that "making the reader work a bit" experience with Frank Miller's Ronin, and I if it were me I probably would have used Franklike alternating location shots between the (nursing home?) and the drive-in, instead of pure parallel storytelling, for intro/establishing material. But then, I'm not that daring. This is much more evocative, as long as people follow it.
The coming storm as a, um, metaphor is effectively foreboding!

Blame the MoCCA Fest.
This was supposed to be a two page post, but the weekend left me with little time. Next week will clear up this page more so.
Again, read as a 22 page comic all at once, it would read better but I know what you mean.

There was a storm or a flood. A big flood. Many years ago.

Great as usual. I'm digging that drive-in sign, too. I remember seeing Jaws 2 at one.

Better Jaws II than the first at the drive in.
Skip Jaws 3-D!
