So if you’ve read chapter375 of “Slipped,” you might be wondering what’s happening in that last panel.
The first three
panels tell how the Chancellor has succeeded in sending his giant and
remarkably mad rat soldiers off to terrorize western Europe — from Paris to
Tzanicor, he vows — while holding the Scarlet Sparrow in his grip, and now having
captured Pip the dog, too.
And his next move
is to make a meal of them both.
But then — this is
an adventure series, after all — something unexpected happens: Tyler appears to
have a sudden out-of-body experience. (Yes, they did consider such phenomenon a
very real possibility in 1926.)
What actually is
going on will be explained in next week’s chapter, when a surprise villain
returns … with an extremely dangerous offer.
More dangerous than
Tyler getting her head bitten off? Take look next week.
S’il vous plait.
