CAMP CRYPTID - Cryptid-obsessed Gust doesn’t really HAVE friends. But when he finds out a cryptid’s last sighting was in the nearby Mills Woods, introvert Gust must join the Mills Summer Camp just so he can investigate. Will he find an elusive monster, or even better - make a friend? #DVPit #MG #GN

GN page: gust stretches, says "dinner time already? Geez, where'd the day go?" behind him are tons of notes and research on aliens and cryptids. He says "and barely any progress." we see him in a new panel kissing his moms cheek and saying "Hi!" and his mom says "There you are!!" his sister is at the table with her and she says "We thought you died."

Sketched page of Gust, late to meeting his study partner who is getting ready to leave the library.

GN inked page - Gust unable to sleep, tossing and turning in bed. Gets up and puts his glasses on, and leans over to turn his computer back on
