It's a shame that a sequence like what we're currently seeing in the slideshow never actually took place on the '91 DS. Sure we can appreciate it to a degree in the comic - but if it had played out with the actors I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that Jim Fyfe, in particular, would have brought every bit of pathos it entails. And in that regard, character-wise, today's scan of the first panel on Page 5 -
- is decidedly one of the best and most heartrending panels drawn for the comic as Willie holds part of the broken tea pot that he'd bought Barnabas for Christmas.
