D.W. - ''Season 2''

This would've been my dream spin-off/sequel series for Arthur. I know some tend to look down on 'time-skips' (I liked All Grown Up...or at least the idea of it) but just think of how perfect a four year jump would be: Arthur and the gang are 12 and such; 'practically adults' and having to deal with the "wonders" of puberty, middle-school and that whole...scene.

Meanwhile D.W (who would be the main focus and headliner)and her friends are now 8 - the original crews' ages - letting us see things from their perspective.

EDIT (9/5/15)
So I've been doing the comic since January? Wow, didn't think I had it in me I decided to update the image and 'streamline' the character descriptions a bit; rather than iron them out too much here I'll just give a general 'gist' of the main crew and leave the details for later in the comic.
