Oh dear! Some terrible fiend has trapped poor  Simon Tesla! And worse, they're apparently unaware that strong magnets might do something terrible to the cybernetic mouse! Well, he seems to be holding up pretty well and I'm sure it's a healthy sign that all his nice glowy circuit-board fur has ... turned ... error-code orange, right? That's not a warning sign of a brain-screen-of-death?

My thanks to  Simon Tesla for letting me stretch out of comic strip redraws a little bit, and also to play with one of those ideas that just appeared fully-formed in my mind somehow.

I think my core problem is I don't know how to draw a mouse's head, or at least I can't decide whether to draw one like a normal cartoon or draw one that looks like our pet mouse's. And I need to figure out better how to letter long blocks of text. This was doable only by writing the text out and then shrinking that layer, something I just last week learned I could do on ArtRage.

Also, I've gone and nerd-sniped myself: thinking of this like a magnetostatics problem, I'm not sure that he wouldn't be able to escape if he really wanted to. Probably he needs his legs held down by separate horseshoe magnets too, not just be hidden under a straight bar magnet.

If someone wants to do magnet bondage better, please do.
