Oh!! I got the next panel with my copy of Banned Book Club. I pre-ordered after I saw the @ironcircuscomics.bsky.social post promoting it. With current events being what they are I felt like Banned Book Club could sit alongside my volumes of John Lewis/Andrew Aydin/Nate Powell's March.
Hand inked comic panel from the graphic novel No Rules Tonight credited to Kim Hyun Sook and Ryan Estrada. Is the 4th panel in the page Ryan posted in the quote of another post from Sleestak showing the panel they recieved with their copy of Banned Book Club Special Edition.

Jenna's got her own problems too. A volun-told helping hand for her parents, she acts out by being a contrarian and drinking like 'an adult'. In high school. And only the worst adults notice...🫗 7️⃣ DAYS REMAIN to join us backing 🌟Eisner Nominated RIGSBY, WI!🌟 www.kickstarter.com/projects/iro...
With a flirtatious wink one of her older adult coworkers slides Jenna a drink. Which should be a huge red flag if you are a bartender, you do not do that. "I made it just ow you like it. Mostly vodka." Jenna laughs nervously because, what the hell, she's in the middle of a shift at her parents' restaurant. "uh-- heh-- thanks." As she takes it the bartender steps back to the bottles with an "I'll get those drink orders started." Jenna looks into the glass, seeing for just a moment what alcohol for her is to creepy guys: a way to manipulate her. She frowns in disgust and pours it down the sink next to her.

Got Other Worlds: The Art of Alex Ries in the post today, and not only is this a very heavy and stiff blunt weapon with which to KO a burglar in self-defence if needs be, AND an exercise weight, but it turns out it's also a pretty lit sci-fi book detailing speculative evolution on other planets.
Pic of the cover of the chongus absolute unit of a book. A giant stone grey fairy angel alien with a light for a face and a light in the chest like Princess Peach's broach is sat cross-legged in peach and grey clouds looking down at two beings on a peach and grey beach. The beings have the centaur body plan and pointy Jar Jar Binks-coded but without the ears(?) faces. Though you can't see the front of their faces here but I know how they look from promotional materials and from the back of the book.

The book is about 40cm × 40cm and 5cm deep and very heavy - must be pretty fancy paper!

Ah, that age where you're doing things adults do, but aren't adult enough to change your own sheets. Jeordie doesn't want to hear it, but maybe he needs to! 😰 In THE TRASH, Jeordie! The Trash! (Trash!... trash...) 🗑️👈 RIGSBY, WI is now funding its THIRD volume! www.kickstarter.com/projects/iro...
"Uuuh." Jeordie stalls as he cannot believe that his father is giving him the "didn't I raise you right" lecture, guy's version, before work. But his keys are being held hostage so he had to deal with it. There's no mercy as his father just continues on. "Your mother was SO UPSET when she found that condom she called me at the hospital last night and I Do Not blame her. That is so DISGUSTING." Especially considering that his mother was still cleaning his sheets the least his old man thought he could do is hide the evidence like an experienced man.

"It... was an accident!" Jeordie stammers, pulling his hood up to hide his darkening cheeks. "I... it... I fell asleep and it just disappeared! Why would I leave it there on purpose!" Why wouldn't he take it off in the first place? Lazy. His dad lays into him for that crappy excuse. "We have ample trash cans in this house. Your mother and I work hard to provide SO MANY trash cans." There's a glaze over his eyeglasses as daddy gets dramatic. "In the trash, Jeordie!" Jeordie turns away because he is just dying of embarrassment at this point, but maybe he should have thought of his own mom's mortification to see her son's banana skins. It's mostly a dammit, my son, I don't mind you sleep with your girlfriend safely but be discreet kinda thing. "It is the most important thing that is ends up IN THE TRASH!" Having got his keys Jeordie is trying to retreat but his dad continues once more as Jeordie walk-of-shames to his car, hood up. "The TRASH."
