Uh, no he doesn't. My guess is that a) his fracture wasn't too serious and some time passed between the hospital visit and the picnic, or b) Jeph forgot/doesn't care. Either way works for me.

I'm guessing you didn't actually pay attention to the comic, otherwise you would have seen that he does in fact have a cast on his arm.

Ah, good catch. I was paying attention, but I guess not enough attention. I expected there to be a sling and everything.

Winter was supposed to arrive Friday but I believe Jeph mentioned in his Twitter that he forgot about Wil and Penelope and needed to close out their arc before jumping forward.

Ah, that makes sense then. Regarding the cast, Jason's probably right -- Wil discarded the sling but kept the (not very bulky or restrictive) cast... I had thought that was just his shirt sleeve. I can go with that, though I don't envy the guy a long motorcycle ride with a recently broken arm. Not just a crack, either; it was a break that needed to be set. Ouch. Even a small break takes minimum 4 weeks to heal; it's only been a few days.
Related: what's that white thing in the center of Wil's glasses? I thought it was tape from the accident, but these are different from the glasses *after* the bike crash but *before* the lunch date & bear.
JD:
Something to make his glasses more comfortable? Makes him a hardcore nerd.

I suspect Wil went on walkabout because:
* Jeph wanted to do it with someone
* We'd scream bloody murder if any major cast member left on a trip
* Wil is, in many ways the closest thing to an ingénue (I remember Breathed sent Opus, his ingénue, a'wanderin' and then 'killed' him off, only to have Opus show up later with amnesia) to do the Candide thing to. I know there's Hanners, but I don't think she's up for a roadtrip. Greasy spoon cafés are dirty, dirty, dirty places
Superkid11:
Sort of unrelated but you know... a roadtrip arc with the main cast would be pretty awesome.
