And here we are! It’s the very last strip in Season Two, and what a cliffhanger! Hee hee…I’m so delighted at being able to show this strip! I’m sure you guys are surprised by how this last arc in Chapel turned out, too. When Season 3 starts, you can bet that there’ll be plenty more time of showcasing Barnaby in all his glory!

Anyway, what do you think about Barnaby? Are you excited for learning more about him? Let’s talk in the commentary, I can’t wait to hear from you!
Um... he's very YELLOW... and RED. Um... and he has a WEIRD shirt.

About the shirt... I meant the words, not the drawing. Drawing is GREAT. He looks a LOT like Barnaby. Nice job on him.
7/6/12 reply
I messed up. When I said "He looks a LOT like Barnaby", I meant he looked a lot like CHAPEL. Sorry for that. OF COURSE he looks like Barnaby, because he IS Barnaby!
7/6/12 reply
Ah, I'm having trouble parsing these three comments...would you mind clarifying?

7/3/12 reply
Thanks so much, I'm glad you like the change!

5/18/12 reply
no new comic today i see. if we don't hear from her soon, i will assume she was kidnapped and we have to go rescue her.
5/18/12 reply
oh gosh, I actually worry that ;P
thank goodness she's posted already
5/19/12 reply
 
cool to see the strip expanding, adding on another character. :)
5/16/12 reply
I'm so happy you like it! Hopefully Barnaby will be a great addition!
7/17/12 reply
 
hey we can see a little bit of what Chapel's mom looks like in the pictures next to Chapel...

will we ever see her in the comic?
5/16/12 reply
No, I don't think I'll include any of the adults as on-screen characters in the comic!
7/17/12 reply
 
It seems like a couple days later after the comic is posted, nobody has anything to say....
5/16/12 reply
 
This is the first time you've shown a character other than Chapel!!! (other than in pictures.)
OOOOOHHH, mountains! I am ever collecting clues to where Chapel lives. So far -
-countryside
-mountains
...aaaannd that's about it.
GREAT WORK EMMA!!!
(I love exclamation points.)

HARRY POTTER POSTER SIGHTING!!!!
5/14/12 reply
Yup! I put that in as a nod to all of you faithful readers who like Harry Potter. I figure since you guys have been reading so long, I should put in a little easter egg at the end of Season Two as an homage to you readers! <3
5/14/12 reply
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH
5/14/12 reply
YEAH REALLY YAYYYY!!!
5/14/12 reply
NO! Thank YOU for always reading my comic, without you guys I wouldn't be able to keep doing it. Thank you!
5/14/12 reply
Yes, Barnaby is the first new on-screen character besides Chapel! A surprising turn of events, isn't it?

Also, Chapel doesn't really live in a defined place, so I don't put an awful lot of thought into the backgrounds...but if you want to hypothesize about where she might live, go ahead, I'd love love LOVE to hear it!
5/14/12 reply
 
Yay, Barnaby's here! :D I bet he'll be fun.
5/13/12 reply
I'm glad you're excited to learn more about him! What do you predict will be some things he'll do?
5/13/12 reply
uhh, be nice, funny, embarrassing..
my first guess was annoying, but he seems too nice right now to say.
5/13/12 reply
I gotta agree.

Hi! Sorry I haven't commented in a while! :/ I was busy :( school and stuff... Emma, I couldn't come to the thing in NYC! I'm soo sorry :( Well, I can always comment here :D
AND OH MY GOSH! Barnaby is sooo cuteeeee!!! <333 Is it possible to be shy of a cartoon character? :D haha I AM CRAZY XD
Katherine 5/11/12 reply
It's fine! I'm sorry you were so busy...HA HA I find it hilarious that everyone finds Barnaby cute!
5/11/12 reply
Don't you think so?
5/11/12 reply
I basically just designed him to look like an older, male version of Chapel...I hadn't really thought about it.
5/11/12 reply
oh, ok
5/12/12 reply
i can see you passing that off as family resemblence and all, but for me, it would not hurt to make him a bit more diffrent that chapel. i will say chapel takes after her mom, maybe Barnaby takes after his dad?
5/12/12 reply
Barnaby actually does take after his dad a bit! The parents won't be shown, but he does. :)
5/12/12 reply
Aww... it's too bad that we won't see him
5/13/12 reply
them I mean..
5/13/12 reply
I was WONDERING where you were. Good to have you back!

5/11/12 reply
...
*blinks*

5/11/12 reply
I agree that he IS kinda cute for a cartoon character..
5/11/12 reply
Oh my GOSH, you guys crack me up.
5/12/12 reply

5/12/12 reply
Oh my gosh...you realize he IS eighteen, right? And he does look sort of like Ron, yeah, with browner hair...
5/12/12 reply

5/11/12 reply
Ahaha, I actually put that in just as a shoutout to all of you Harry Potter fans who read Chapel!
5/12/12 reply
Yay!
5/12/12 reply
YAAAAYYYY!!!!
5/12/12 reply
Yes! She's obviously VERY excited to see him again -- and who wouldn't be?
5/12/12 reply
I honestly don't know... :)
5/12/12 reply
 
WHAT! EMMA T. CAPPS! You said Barnaby wasn't going to get screen time! I've been trolled again! I can't trust anyone these days.

.....

I'm joking, I still love ya Emma. You just keep surprising me.
5/11/12 reply
GOTCHA! I'm surprised you believed me, actually. Oh well, I've enjoyed messing with all of you guys during this storyline!
5/12/12 reply
So did Barnaby and Chapel's mom plan this together?
5/12/12 reply
Nope, Barnaby was acting on his own! Nobody else had any idea he was tricking them.
5/12/12 reply
wow!
5/12/12 reply
that is going to be one upset mother once she figures out she's been had as well, then i guess she'll just forgive him along side Chapel.
5/12/12 reply
You like to mess with people too?
High five.
5/14/12 reply
 
Oooh new character! Absolutely I'm excited to learn more about him!
5/11/12 reply
Yes, you'll definitely be finding out a lot more about Barnaby!

5/13/12 reply
I think that was my dad testing out the website...he usually does it on a private server (just to make sure the comments are working) but I guess this time he made a mistake.
5/14/12 reply
oh.. hi Emma' dad, i guess even though you're probably not on anymore.
5/14/12 reply
ETC, it wasn't me....somebody in TX according to the logs
