I die the shoes in the last panel. Its a nice visual image to reiterate the point that Jack just sort of disappeared in a whoof of smoke. I also thought that the three panels of Tristan talking were great cues: Eyes semi-shut, eyes shut, eyes open--but it seemed a little much to me... It was great, because I've never seen it literally happen, like, "I blinked and it was just gone!" However I would have either stuck with the shoes or the blinking panels. Very nicely done, though. Very cool. Both effects were stupendously done. As was the rest of the comic, of course.

Two more things empty shoes may be evocative of: In old comics characters get shocked or knocked out of their shoes, and Minchin is a bit of an old-time clown (see "Koko the Clown"), so you could see it as making cartoons manifest. I don't think Kelly was going for that, but I thought it fun.
And thing two, Darren mentions below: Spontaneous Human Combustion. Have fun with google on that stuff.

... but I thought Minchin was more of a "knock their socks off" type character. But I suppose to get at ones' socks you must first remove them from their shoes.

CURRENT COMIC- Oh snaps!!! Our main man is back! What's the haps now, y'all??? Suyoi - Amusingly, I don't think Jack was wearing socks. But as we see in the current comic, he doesn't let a lack of a garment preclude him from trying to remove it...

So the current comic page is crazy lace picture, which suggests both Theo and Jack will figure prominently in the chapter. So it's safe to say at this point, having your boobs ripped off doesn't kill you, if you're a sexy vampire dude. Questions? Comments? :-)

I am thinking Minchin was either bug shot crazy psychopath or perhaps he is in on the whole eat the new vampire's hearts idea to gain power or both. It will be interesting to see how it heals, will he be left with a grotesque missing chest or will it heal perfectly?

Christopher, it's like hitting us with the answer book! It's so close, and so hard, and it hurts us when you bash it against our skulls!

Hey current comic! Kelly is hard at work on page one of the chapter! It may involve a shift in rendering technique. Whatever it looks like, expect to feel the joy of Theo all up in your hearts. It's gonna be lovely.

Yay! I keep saying this, but REALLY HONESTLY I think these guys are the last characters we're going to introduce. Things will not get any more complicated, I swear guys!
But seriously, I like these new cats. One day I will tell you about the circuitous paths they took to appear in the comic. You don't really need to know anything about them for the purposes of the comic, other than that they are Theo's Badass Wreckin' Crew, but some people like that sort of thing.
BTW, something Chris did in the original books that will never see the light of day: In a storyline where Jack was seeing a therapist for monsters, Minnie met a leprechaun in the waiting room and they totally hooked up!
I'm a weird guy.
