More than ever with this page it's clear to me that if I'm going to do a comic about a bunch of barely legal teens I'm eventually going to have to learn at least a little about the details of modern high school life, which can be a tricky thing to research. For example in this scene I imagined the students just hanging out in a kind of unsupervised study hall, but I'm frankly not sure if that's even a thing anymore.
I still feel like my best option is just to find a TV show that revolves around a high school and take notes, but I've yet to find or even hear of one I think I could stand to sit through. In desperation I could always descend into the murky depths of whatever the live-action crap airs on the Disney Channel these days, but no one wants that. Or maybe I could just focus more on what these girls are up to after class lets out. The last show I really watched that starred a teenage cast was That 70's Show, which got away with rarely ever showing the kids actually at school. If I did that I'd probably focus more on giving them part-time jobs like Abbey at the fast food joint. As always I'd love to hear what you guys think.
