Four girls from everywhere.
A school in the middle of somewhere.
A city at the edge of anywhere.
A school story like you'll find nowhere else.

The Extras is a modern take on a classic boarding school story, a slice-of-life comedy / fantasy about the everyday adventures of growing up. Located in the City, the School of Saints Java and Hellbender is as much a character in the story as the girls from almost everywhere who live and learn there, and just as full of secrets.

I think everyone in the room knew that Patience was gonna have a question.

We already know Mallory and Dewby; since they've appeared more than once we'll probably end up giving the other four members of the troupe names as well. Just don't ask me what they are yet...

Hey, where's Chantilly, anyway?

We hope to have Book 3 out sometime by late summer! I'll have it with me for sale at whatever fall conventions I end up attending, as well as by mail, as usual!

Still always available: Stickers and other merch! You can order them and the collected books 1 and 2 of The Extras from Our Ko-Fi Shop! ComicFury creators and registered users, PM me directly instead to receive a special discount!

There used to be a song about Barney Google, with the goo, goo, googly eyes.

(Googled it...Eddie Cantor, 1923)

You know... I was going to mention Barney Google, but then I thought that no one would know what the heck I was talking about. I was wrong and I'm glad someone else knows about him!

Barney Google was a compatriot of Snuffy Smith.

Before I was born, my mother liked the name Barnard for a boy. Every time she mentioned it, my father would burst into the song. As events unfolded, I am not a Barnard.

Patience has a point! Chantilly is probably in a dark room plotting something with her ghost double.

That's a really good guess!

"eyes most googly" oh I'm remembering that. I don't know where would I ever use it, but still.

My love for Patience continues to grow

Glad you have the Patience-love to give! She's a lot of fun to write.

Patience has the best question. :)

Personally though, I find the mascots scary. I've always found rag dolls and some stuffed animals scary. Dunno what it is, but I guess it's like some peoples' fear of clowns. I'm not too bad with clowns.

I'm glad the Study Buddies hit the uncanny valley a bit for you. We tried to think of the most ridiculous way possible to get across the idea of "hey, we have a study group!" and this was what we came up with. A touch of terror is just a bonus.
