TM Ch4: original thumbs (full PDF) (Patreon)

Here are the original "thumbnails" (they are not actually thumbnails) (they were blue/ mechanical pencil sketches on halves of 8x11 paper) for the chapter, done back in 2007. ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO, scream. This was one of my least favorite chapters, which I realized pretty much halfway through. I hated the new characters in this chapter, I hated the overly slapstick writing and overload of exposition, there was an unnecessary baby, the ending was flat as hell, etc. All of the elements I wanted were sort of there in some form, but arranged properly. LIKE AN UNFOLDED PROTEIN. Anyways I refolded it, but you can see the previous configuration for yourself :]
