Joe

I made this short strip last year for the proposed AfterWorks follow-up anthology book. Ted and Scott got side-tracked with Trickster and the book was never finished. My short story was based on an exchange overheard on the Emeryville shuttle bus to work. I'd see Joe often on his way to the Oaks cardhouse and imagined his story . . .
