Vigilante Comic from September 2008, now posted at Baby Cakes in NYC.

Occasionally I'll do a vigilante comic, and leave it with someone who I think needs to see their behavior in comic form. This one I slid under the door of Baby Cakes in Manhattan, Elisa's favorite vegan bakery. They wouldn't open up to let a pregnant woman have a necessary late night snack. We begged. It was five minutes before they were supposed to close! No luck, but at least they learned the error of their ways and posted the comic as proof.

Justice contemplates waterfalls...
