More from PeterAndCompany
The influences for Iggy's character actually came from a few different guys. I may have had a tough childhood, but I did always have at least one friend who stuck with me. In each plotline of Peter & Company, Iggy pretty much takes the place of whatever friend I happened to be hanging out with during that point in time. The one I was with when this episode happened really did pull this act on me, and it caught me completely by surprise.
After slicing my foot open on a broken bottle, without even thinking twice, this kid pulled off his sock and wrapped it tight around my foot. He then proceeded to help me walk the whole mile back to my house.
I felt it was high time that Iggy got the moment in the spotlight that he deserves. I may not have had a lot of friends growing up, but the ones I did have were pretty awesome.
So yes, the comic takes a BRIEF break next week for a special Halloween-themed update. The next page of this story will resume the following week. We still have a few more pages to go.

Had a moment like that. Was in Italy. Stepped on something that tore my foot open when I was 12. Everyone was afraid I had stepped on a Sea Urchin, which were thick in that area. But it was only a small piece of glass. Lucky I didn't cut the tendon. Still have the scar thirty years later. Didn't need stitches, though, not that I would have trusted the Italian hospitals. Bound up my foot with gauze and we were back playing. I wore my sandals all day after that, though. Ah, to be young and virtually indestructible again.
Hooray for Eagle Scouts! Iggy is today's Deus-Ex-Machina. :D
But a "tourniquet"? I think Iggy might be mis-using the term. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought a tourniquet was used only in dire first aid situations, as a last resort to cut off blood flow that otherwise can't be staunched? A dressing that puts the victim in danger of losing that extremity (because it effectively cuts off more than 90% of blood flowing to it).
