I figured swapping angles from one page to the next would make the blatant asset reuse a little less egregious.
Didn't get to comment last week but I feel like I've foreshadowed Zoomer's anxieties about parental abandonment since... pretty much the second time I did a silly strip featuring him, before Boomer's Big Date even. It's all over these strips if you look back.
I was wondering if 9 strips is enough for this "arc", since this is not an issue that is easy for kids or teens to get over, but I feel like there's enough evidence piled up of Boomer being a considerate parent that, once Zoomer's past the initial shock, he'll be alright with it.
