Description Some old fan art for Shortpacked! Accusations that I've been sorting through my picture folders would be totally valid

For those unfamiliar with the comic, Robin (the one with black hair) has super-human speed, and this picture basically implies that Robin spun around and swapped clothing with Amber so quickly that what just happened hasn't quite registered with Amber yet. She's also likely dizzy and everything's blurry due to Robin swiping her glasses. Truly, she is a picture of confusion.

I thought you were refering to the character Robin from the comic series: "The Wotch". But even still, it's still a great drawing!

heyyo, thanks for bringing my attention to Shortpacked. Interesting combination of drama and humor (I'm often surprised by how they actually take some of the jokes seriously). However, I have frequented the older strips as I often require the full exposition befor I can enjoy what the future brings (plus I'm a lazy shit who has time to kill (no I don't)), and I simply noticed; in spite of there being several (albeit suttle to the point that I wouldn't have noticed without prior knowledge) hints as to her speedy pursuasion, it never comes out... Where your knowledge come from? Have you connections in the comisphere?

Shortpacked uses characters from another comic called "It's Walky", and it has a huge archive to go with it. In fact, it started out as a comic called "Roomies" back in 1997.

First Roomies comic: [link]
First It's Walky comic: [link] - Uses characters and leftover plot from Roomies, so having read the former first will assist in understanding. Robin doesn't show up for a while, however.

Due to Willis (the author) redoing the Walky strips and not being done with the process, the art suddenly has a MASSIVE improvement in the archives at the start of Walky, then goes back to the older style, then gradually makes its way back to the improved style. It's a little bizarre.

Hmm, now I'm tempted to upload my coloring of it to DA...

So, while I contemplate, I'll just link to the official fanart gallery version .

Okay, it only took me 5 months to do that.

I heart Robin! One of the earlier comics, where she's tryin' to get Amber to be more outgoing, I was all ' She's meeee~!'

Then there was boy-interaction 'yeah, she's not me anymore'. u.u''' Meh, I ain't rushin'.

Totally something that'd pro'lly happen in the comic, too. You capture their expressions well.
