Call me crazy, but I think Tess’s selective amnesia act seems to be slipping. And once again, Jules Rivera has been kind enough to remind us readers all about what happened in yesterday’s strip. And a heck of a lot did happen, all in a matter of seconds! Anyway, it’s just as well that we stick with today’s recap and just move forward.
And this would be as good a point as any to jump back to Lost Forest and see how the gals are getting along, but this is only Week 1 of the usual two-week segment for Mark’s adventure, so prepare yourselves for a second week of hog huntin’ hijinks! You know, maybe Mark should have brought his hunting rifle along for self-defense … from Tess!
The hunting culture is best handed down by generations of families, where young people join the hunt many times before shooting a gun, learning group safety through instruction and experience. Tess looks like she went costume shopping, bought a gun and started shooting.

Pretty sure that Rivera did not grow up in such a family culture. Otherwise, I agree: They do look more like cosplay.

Did the bullet hit the hog? I thought it hit the tree. Did the hog realize it was being shot at and instantly died of fright?

HAHA! I suppose we could surmise a ricochet, but more likely, it was one of those off-camera moments that have to be assumed. I’m guessing that Rivera self-censored the actual shooting, as she did the prior hog culling event.
