#webcomics #girlgenius Girl Genius for 12/31 (www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php) And that's a wrap for 2025! Whew! So I look back over the year and think; what do you want? A medal? Time waits for no one, pal, get back to work.

In the bitter gloom, he stood, the Newcomer. He watched the ghosts bolden through & listened to their clumsy armour, to their scattered cries, thorn red in the darkness. Where is Thomas Becket, traitor to king & country….Here, I am…no traitor…but a priest of god…Ferez! Ferez!

Oath of the Road Watch Snow falls and now my shift begins. It shall not end until I punch out. I shall take no coffee breaks, hold no mobile device, play no apps. I shall wear no swimsuits and win no poker. I shall drive and sand at my post. 1/2
