Still trying to figure out if this character is talking to his horse, himself or someone off panel. I know that I can’t wait to see what he stirs up when he catches up.
My bet is that he’s talking to the crow you can see perched on the wreakage – which may or may not be the creepy one-eyed crow we’ve been seeing elsewhere.
Like Dean & Jonny, I admire that hat! I’ve always wanted a cool top hat…
And I think this fine fellow is talking to us. The 4th wall may be a bit blurred, but he seems to think the odds are good the writer won’t show his destination until he gets there…
Noticed your banner ad over on the TKT site. Just began reading yesterday and am really enjoying the tale so far. Great art, interesting characters and a plot I can’t figure out at all. Well done!
And what’s that stack thing behind and to the left of him. Looks like it could be a tree or a free-standing chimney. It does look like there’s the ruined remains of a house behind him so I’m thinking its a chimney.

Yeah, I thought the horse was talking in that last panel. I’m pretty sure he’s talking to himself though.

Hes probably taking to himself… Looks like hes going after the kid..
October 12th, 2010 at 7:51 am
Definitely to himself. If he was talking to the horse he would say “Two to one we get there first.”

I’m gonna say telepathic communication or split personality.
October 12th, 2010 at 8:05 am
He wears a mighty fine hat!

At fist I though he was talking to his horse but now I’m going with him having a split personality.

Perhaps he’s talking to spirits…or what he perceives as spirits

clearly he’s talking to his sweet top hat

@ Dean: I wonder if he always makes it quick and clean. I’m guessing not, if he’s plotting with his invisible friend

Aethelfled, that’s really a good theory! I’m suprised I didn’t notice that before.
October 13th, 2010 at 7:38 pm
Why, he’s talking to Harvey, there he is, that silly pooka. I like the detail on the whiskers.
October 14th, 2010 at 8:14 am
He is talking to the crow.

In the first panel, are the lines on the ground supposed to be part of a spiral?
October 14th, 2010 at 4:27 pm
My guess is that it is where the wagon was pulled up.

This setting has been seen previously, under different light.

I think davelevine might want to go back to some earlier pages. This scene might make a bit more sense.

Picked up the con preview edition yesterday at the Pittsburgh Indy con. Read that and then read the web comic in one sitting. Great stuff I’m hooked!

@Aethelfled: VERY CLEVER. I hadn’t caught that before, but it makes perfect sense!

Thankee, Steve.
