The Daily Grind Table of Contents      Ever since Daily Grind stopped being a comic and became a series of illustrated novellas, the hardest thing about starting a new wunna these stories has been finding a typeface that somehow fits.

Storyline #131 will feature two of our feathered cast members, Kain and Eduard, and the job they do as bodyguards to Montgomery Tarr, one of Gadsden's more outspoken city council members.
