These two strips were originally released on the Sob Story website, which is now offline. However, one strip was saved up on the Shifter Archive, on a web page which is itself offline but had been saved by the Internet Archive. The inked artwork of the other could be found as illustration for an interview about the comic — thus enabling us to reunite both halves here. In 2022, the grayscale version of Page 2 was found in a private file collection.
