[[http://campcomic.com/ Camp Weedonwantcha]] is a story by artist Katie Rice about children left to fend for themselves at a nature camp that has no adults, with their only contact with the outside world being supplies occasionally dropped in by parachute, which are just as likely to contain feral cats as they are anything useful.. The comic is centered on twelve-year-old Malachi, the newest resident of the camp, and the people he meets and gets to know there.

* SocialServicesDoesNotExist: The comic's premise hinges on this trope. The only indication anyone apart from the kids, and their parents, even knows of the camp's existence, let alone cares about the kids' well-being, is the occasional supply drop. And even most of those "supplies" are so useless they [[DownInTheDumps might not be intended for the kids at all]].

Examples include the kids playing with the parachute of a skeleton hanging from a tree, Seventeen mistaking a dead possum for one pretending to be dead and sitting over it for an entire day waiting for it to get up, and Malachi blowing on some improvised birthday candles to wish he wasn't at the camp, accidentally knocking them over and causing a huge fire.

I think that Brian looking off to the side was more of a response to how delusional Malachi was rather than indicating past trauma. After all, Seventeen was doing it too.

*** It's worth pointing out that when Malachai said they couldn't have find Malachai Jr's (A CuteKitten) father because "[[http://campcomic.com/comic/paternity-test Moms and dads don't fight like that]]," Brian looks off to the side, with a look that makes it seem he doesn't believe that.
