The "scrub" we saw earlier is now known as "Scratch."

Hah! I told ya! I told ya! I told ya!

Nyah nyah!!!

Nobody but Scratch saw him. Oh, except for those Royals several weeks ago, when he first came to Sanctuary City, but they weren't paying that close attention either.

There is another factor to consider. Scratch is seeing him with only one eye. It's sometimes hard to recognize things when you can only see them with one eye.

Not to mention he was wearing green clothes and a hat to match (big white feather too), and had an almost white forelock on his head.

I don't see any of this on Quentyn now. Unless he loses the headscarf, I doubt they'll recognize him anytime soon. You'd be surprised how easy it is to fool some people.

I like the look of this place. When it was still a honest and healthy building, this was probably really cool like place. The royal should maintain better their 'castle' they have a status to maintain.

La royaut

RHJunior said the kid who stole WC is now known as Scratch, but I don't recall him saying that Scratch is the kid Quentyn just rescued. It MIGHT be him, but I'm not taking that as a given at this point. And if it's not, Scratch still represents an unknown variable in this equation.

As for the Royals' warehouse, they don't exactly want to put up a big sign that says "Royals Corporate Headquarters". The more it blends into the rest of the tumbledowns, the better.

They could leave the outside decrepit and fix up the inside, though. Let's face it - gangers generally don't have the ability to think ahead very far, and tend not to want to do anything that might be construed as honest work, either. They don't -care- if that leaves them living in a pigsty.

And take a closer look at the strip, wmalimu - Quentyn's guide is -greeted- as Scratch. Unless that's the generic name for -all- the newbies, it's our thief.

Okay, got it. (And thanks for the clip, Jaydub.)

Of course, we know that because Ralph gave us a critical piece of information here in the forum. I hope he plans to drop a clue into the strip for the benefit of all the fans who don't follow the forum.

you mean there are some people who DON'T follow forums in their comics?!

just kidding, but any way you slicke and dice it this is bound to get interresting.

Lol, I didn't for a long time. Even after my Moonie started posting.

Until I found TOTQ, I didn't even know comics had forums to go with them...

Neither did I.

actually I have to admit that until I started posting on these forums, in general the word "forum"was just another useless link button on some websites

I was a lurker for awhile...then I just wander too close to the cage, and BAM!
