We’re going to leave this storyline for the moment — after all, Sophia and Giorgio are off on, well, some kind of honeymoon, and Raymond-François and Jérôme now have to start planning for events to come in January. Both of these are storylines we’ll return to, just to see what happens.

Now, I dont know about you, but this has been a wild narrative ride, with three rather large storylines running concurrently. Doc and Raid’s ever so slightly opening their relationship, Sophia and Giorgio running off like a couple of love-struck teenagers, RF and Jér having their entire world upended… it’s been like writing a Russian novelette, “War and Peace Lite”. But I’m pleased with how it’s all worked out for everyone thus far. Lots of groundwork for the future has now been laid, which augurs well for the future of the strip. (Speaking of which, dont forget to get your entry in for the Doc and Raider Contest 5000. Ends on 24 November, and lots of great swag if you win. Details here. So email those entries!)

So, from here… well, as usual, not sure. I mean, please, am I ever? Maybe, with American Thanksgiving looming, we need to look south of the border to see what the Thruple has gotten itself into. God knows, with everything going on down there…..
