Don't you just wish that you have got a secret hideaway place for you to escape to whenever you feel down and frustrated with the world? I wish I have a sanctuary like Carl's. Anyway, ahhh... the budding romance waiting to blossom between Carl and Adeline. Yeah right. As if I am going to let MM turn into a fairytale brainless chick-flick romance story. I had so many ways I thought of drawing the background for this strip. One of them was something like a far-away shot of the entire hospital building then zooming in close up on Carl. But thinking is thinking and not doing. Too difficult. Think I'll end up with shoulder joint tendonitis first before that will materialise! The next few strips will actually have some vague sense of continuity among them. I am actually planning ahead oh! Amazing!
