8 | * ArtEvolution - [[http://acityinaplace.com/?comic_id=0 "Page 0"]] and then [[http://acityinaplace.com/?comic_id=636 "Page 636"]]. Unfortunately for Colbey, art improvements do not help with life suckage. |
9 | * BadAssPreacher - Scot if there ever was one. |
10 | * BoomHeadShot - Subverted? Not? After all the shot went [[spoiler: straight to the throat]]. |
11 | * BoyishShortHair - Justified, as this is in part a matter of survival. |

20 | * LivingMacGuffin - She's searching for [[spoiler: Peter, who is perfectly fine living in pretty much the last city]] |
21 | * {{Mooks}} - Pretty much every one of Arthur's goonies Colbey encounters. Dead faster than you say [[KilledMidSentence w-wai-!!*gunshot*]]. [[http://acityinaplace.com//?comic_id=35 link]]. In fact you used to be able to sign up to die as a mook in the comic. |
