Can you have a meta of a meta joke?
The meta of the joke is that Katie hasn't at all appeared this school year. In fact she only appeared twice in 2023. One of those was a calendar problem, and in the other one, she's just standing off to the side.
The "funny" thing is that I haven't used the four girls together (like the three older girls on the right) since the girls have been paired off. And Katie hasn't been paired off ... yet. I guess she's been busy studying. Or maybe getting reading for the next consumer electronics trade show, or something like that. In the comic "Bible", she's the one most likely to be taking advanced classes, but I haven't shown those advanced classes.
I hope that this is the start of more comics, and not the start of a bunch of quick, mini comics. I had comics planned for Christmas and New Years, but they never materialized. Maybe I'll create them and maybe I'll save them for another year. Between home, work and now writing, when I do have time for comics, I don't have the energy, or I'm afraid gaffes will be made.
So Happy New Year, and let's all hope for the best in 2024!
