In a previous post, we posited that writers shouldn’t leave readers in the lurch about secondary events, but in the same breath, we admitted that writers can’t always know what’s coming up, plot-wise. We think our webcomic allows us to fill in some of these gaps. First, because our universe is separated into four storylines, we can handle several subplots at the same time. Then, by approaching them from different time periods, these subplots achieve their own pace. And lastly, because some storylines are not published chronologically, we can adjust as we go along to fill any plot holes that may appear.

For example, we had established that Gypsie and Tucker hated each other. This animosity drove Gypsie to discover Travis’ secrets. But once Gypsie got the Bunker, there had to be a period of time where these characters were bumping into one another. We hadn’t anticipated that. So in September 2015, we finally published a story showing one of these encounters, allowing us to fill in a plot gap. Also, since were writing the story anyway, why not suggest that something else may have intervened in Tucker’s destiny…
