Wen-Tack was last Tackleford storyline before Wicked Things afaik, but it wasn't the only short after Bad Machinery ends with Severed Alliance - there was a brief arc Hard Yards, canonically just before Wen-Tack/The Great Unboxing, which seemed to be backing off on the tension of Shauna and Lottie growing apart at the end of Severed Alliance (where they are reconciled but maybe not really besties any more, with Shauna largely preferring the prickly company of Blossom). In Hard Yards Little Claire joins the mystery team and Little Claire, Lottie, Shauna, and Blossom form a band, hooray... the loose-ends named characters since SGR being tied together in knots. Very neat.

Bad Machinery is really more about contemporary social relationships and adulthood than mysteries, but the theme of the ephemerality of childhood friendships, whilst realistic, is also kind of depressing? So y'know. It's nice to scratch that itch.

then Wen-Tack drives a steamroller through all of it by splitting the cast up again and introducing a new slate of mystery kids

hot doylist take is that it reflects Allison's indecision over whether to end the Tackleford universe, I suppose

Is there some cheat sheet around that lets the average reader make their way through the Bobbinsverse in order instead of, well, the mess we currently have?

In this installment of The Timid Soul (June 12, 1933), look at the pull-chain on the ceiling lamp, and the facial hair on the waiter, and the coathooks on the wall, and - as always - the reflections on the polished floor.

$0.50 in 1933 would be about $10 now.
