Mickie is the resident "printer's devil" for a small newspaper; I like the little artistic touch of always showing Mickie's arms stained up to the elbow. Most of the action happens at the shop, with interactions between Mickie and "the Boss" or Mickie and potential customers. He's full of sass, but the boy knows his work, and isn't afraid of putting in a hard day's labor. Here is a small continuity revolving around Mickie being forced to get out of the office to enjoy the town fair.
