Things are looking much too prepared.
Hey, an anthology I'm part of is being Kickstarted right now! It's another fairy tales book, this time African instead of Europeon tales, and it's got some amazing names attached, go have a look!

Welll, she kinda was half-caught during their little escapade, so...
Let's hope it's just a temporary case of nerves.
I can only imagine what Edie is planning with that vial...
It's that damned clock again. It was still there in 2013. Wonder if it has anything to do with maintaining the pocket Universe?
Dunno if it's intentional or an art error, but the clock is pointing to two PM, not four.
No, it is not. It seems to be pointing to 10 til 12, or at least that is how I read it. Actually the face seems to be all messed up and I can't make much sense of it. Which is consistent with both theories, that the clock is a clue and an element of the spell, or an art error. It is easier to think the artist just considered it too much work to put in tiny precise letters [or my eyes are not perfect], but it might be worth looking close if the clock shows again.
Face looks like standard Roman numerals to me, but at the limit of resolution.
Aye, those are Roman numerals; the clock is pointing to 2:00 pm, being the long hand for minutes (pointing at 12 or XII) and the short hand for hours (pointing at 2 or II).
I was thinking it was 2:00am... Not sure if am and pm, night and day mean much in the pocket universe anyway.
I'm thinking "am" because it's the next day, and Lexa said to meet before they start cooking.... I wonder if they got Nora? Maybe that's why Mrs Sykes said for her to keep her eyes peeled (open to danger) because she's next for lying to them? I mean Nora makes a terrible liar.
What makes you say "pm"?
there's no difference between "am" and "pm" on such clocks.
I think I can guess EXACTLY where Nora is.
While I greatly appreciate the defence, it's an error on my part! The script said two, but the SFX worked best if it stretched across two panels rather than one, so I changed the words but forgot the clock! Oops D:
Why not have the first bong dramatically framing the clock, and the second bong introducing the new scene?
Sorry, I don't mean to tell you how to do your comic. I'm tired. Ignore me. There's no delete button for guest comments X_X
