The darker side of the inn and cartoons for Human Rights


On board again
...
No excuses for the delay really, though the World Cup and the mostly awful hot weather over here may as well do.
Bad news is I didn't get selected for Craig Thomson's presumably awesome residency in Florida. However, as he writes on his blog, "There was so much amazing work that it made the selection process challenging and frustrating, but also bodes well for the future of the comics medium! Keep working on those projects!" So gotta keep rolling, even if I know that my artwork is not exactly amazing.
Here's a single new page:

En inglés: Panel 1 Innkeeper: Of course against the Turks! Don't you know that their whole army is marching this way, led by the Sultan himself?!
P2 Colin: Yes, we are aware of that. We only thought they are still further away. Is there still time for us to sit at a table?
Innk: Hopefully, yes.
P3 Pip: The wine is alright. What's wrong?
Colin: What's wrong?! We're at the edge of the world thanks to our duke's magic trick, the Sultan's army is upon us, and we may not even have money to pay for this wine.
P4 Pip: Oh my, the legendary meanness of his highness! We'd better check that bag at once!
Colin:Yessir, right away. Your wish is my command!
P5 Pip: Looks like he excelled himself and at least didn't remove anything.
Colin: Indeed, here's all our twenty silvers, two outfits per person and some knickers too. What else could we ask for?
P6 Innk (thinking): Now, who the heck is that?! Aren't these two dandies enough for a day...?

And now for something completely different:

This here is a cartoon that is aimed at facilitating education about Human Rights. There will be a few more hopefully, and not only by me. Details to come later....
