Everything that follows is original 2005 commentary except where noted “–RN 2012″:

Notice the Marilyn Monroe reference with the kilt. Sadly, I was too rushed to draw it well, and many people have overlooked it.

This was the last page I finished at the end of 24 hours. I remember watching the sky lighten as I drew the little girl being carried off. I think it’d be great to be carried away by a flying animal, even if it might mean I’d get eaten at the end of the ride >^.^<

Oh, I like horses… Provided they’re thoroughly basted and served with a white sauce.

    I think I see a small cameo of a certain someone in the panel with the mother…

    • Rachel the Great

      Flashback! I just remembered! Didn’t I have a giveaway of the printed minicomic to the first person who spotted Rachel the Great?
