That must be so annoying? It doesn't give a good impression of the comic, as a whole. in an issue which is clearly trying to attract new readers?! (Oversized Cover and Free Gift).
With your permission I'll print of out a copy of the correct panel above and stick it over the butchered version in the comic, before I hand it over to the kids. That way you'll know there's at least one original version of the strip out there!
oh and yes, i was pretty annoyed about it. the stray meecher is in the way of the guitar-smashing action, so you can hardly tell what's happening in the panel. and the speech bubble 'sir! 6x15!' is a complete non-sequitur. for me, it spoilt a page i had been pleased with.
could be tricky though, rick, to get the size and shape right -- i was just looking at the panels and i see that they've squashed it slightly in the comic -- might need a bit of playing around in photoshop... GOOD LUCK!
i've squished it now so it looks about the right shape -- unfortunately it's lost quality a tad, and it still needs reducing, but hopefully once reduced the quality will be fine...
