Off hand..I'd think that Jung has already seen Gary's work... people who draw comics tend to want to show off, especially to comic stores. Looks like Jung is *putting a single sheet back in* to Gary's bag. Most likely the one that Yuki dropped. He certainly doesn't look like someone who's been caught glancing, eh.

So...now Zii has to go hunting for the Gary/Yuki express. THAT should prove interesting :D Maybe she'll recruit the Amazonian as body guard :)

Looks like one of those brown folder things which you keep a4 sheets and other such things in. Cnat remember what its called. used a lot in moving around memo's and storing multiple papers for delivery. One of those with a envelope like seal on the top.

i think its a general shine really to give it definition [not the right word]. Same like the lines on the bag just below it.

A manila envelope.

I'm still going with a single sheet of paper (most likely the page Yuki pulled out).
I swear I will, I'll make you smile.

These discussions make me wonder how much thought Giz actually does put into the little details of the drawings, and if certain people aren't overanalyzing scant bits of data... ;))

I'm pretty sure that Giz puts in all of the little details on purpose so that we can overanalyse them. :ymdevil:

This strip certainly mediates some of the "Zii, that's just mean!" angle that was brewing. And the edits to the last strip do help a little with the "Gary the criminal pervert" angle (being a pervert is okay--it's the criminal part that's bothersome)... but he still doesn't come off very well. I still think he needs a good shot of character development, stat. I'll also restate my vote for no more fainting spells... or at least a cutback on them.

Junghan, on the other hand, continues to fascinate just by being contradictory and not terribly well-defined. The playful unveiling here is excruciating and fun simultaneously.

I'm hoping for Gary/Yuki to go running by Didi's workplace, and with a single mighty tug, the Amazon snaps the cuffs in twain. Yuki's eyes then turn into giant hearts. Gary observes this and sighs sadly. ...Didi, of course, can't figure out what's going on.

Hmm... what are the odds on Gary + Sandra? We know Gary has a nice butt... :D

how fun would it be if DiDi walked in with Sandra wrapped around here like ...Steve or whatever his name was, when Gary Yuki and Zii are home, epic headsplort / heartbreaks all around

The key is on a half-open keyring.

Nice strip today. Love the punchline =P

Surprised Jughan didn't make people pay to see that show.

However, I wonder how Zii busted the roof's lock...

But by having the key in her possession, she is continuing the story of "The Misadventures of Gary and Yuki."

Meanwhile, Gary fears for his life from both the police and when Yuki does wake up. Wait until he runs past Didi's workplace and she gets involved.

Oh, what will happen next??

Actually, since Gary was passed out, he does not yet know he may need to fear Yuki, big fun is yet to be had by all. Except Gary that is, let the beatings begin! :ymdevil:

I hope that Gary is running to the nearest hardware store. Somewhere he can get a hacksaw (or something that can cut him loose from Yuki)

I would like to know where Zii developed her skills at breaking and entering.
