Went to see the Defeat of Jesse James Days festival in Northfield this weekend. It’s an annual festival where townfolk reenact the last bank robbery of Jesse James – right in the very bank that he robbed. Unfortunately it isn’t very easy to see what’s going on inside the bank from the stands in the street, but there were around a half dozen James gang members riding up and down the main street on horseback firing six-shooters and a few citizens lined up on the far end of the street returning fire with rifles. Luckily none of the festival goers were stuck in all the commotion. And the Northfield police just stood around watching the whole thing despite the weeks of advertizing that the James gang was coming to town. I suppose its good that the Northfield citizens are still so vigilant.
Anyhow, it was a hot day with lots of classic cars, food tents, crafts sales and a Super Bingo. I was pretty sweaty by the time I got back, but I had a good time.

Love April’s expression in the last panel! Good job.
Pretty cool! I’d like to see that reenactment. 🙂
Both the artwork and the coloring is amazing in this strip! Your best one yet!
Had to go remind myself of what they were even arguing about in the first place. 😛
Seconded on the expressions!
( Is this the first page from your new Cintiq? )
No, last week’s was the first. I’ve got a new 22HD Cintiq, and it’s a lot nicer that my old 12WX. Not only is it much bigger, but the colors are brighter so you can see what you’re drawing more clearly.
Ok. :/
I did geuss that it would be a spell that unbinds flesh from bone, but I still didn’t expect it.
😀 Awesome!
I’m sneaky that way.
Let me guess, this is something that’s only useable once per day or something like that?
