Daniel kind of went nuts with the Easter eggs in this one.
We were going to make a running gag of the kid in the turtle costume being seen in the backgrounds of campus life. :)

These guys, like the ones around the table were intended eventually to be recurring characters -- minor annoyances with slightly satiric presentations.

Another character from the upcoming webcomic by Melanie E and I. This is Dustin. He's obviously into torture because he plays the oboe. More about him later. :)

Quillian isn't a hero, so it's okay for her to run away.
