Classic Kevin & Kell in: the carnivore test (August 18-24, 2003)       Sheep's wool is mostly keratin, and ruminants cannot properly digest it. Not to mention that the carpet hunk is likely to be synthetic, which also cannot be digested by ruminants. Bruno's gonna have a very bad time. Also, hi Mary! It's been a while since you showed up. For those who don't remember, Mary is Corrie's clone, which at first had aged rapidly as a side-effect of the cloning process, but then was accidentally de-aged and adopted by Candice, the border collie who works in Kevin's ISP business. So she's basically an adult in a toddler's body. Modern Kevin & Kell

Judge Parker (April 2021) Neddy and Ronnie's show has been picked up by a new streaming service called Plus+. I thought that had already happened since they've been filming it for at least a year already but I guess not? I don't know how TV works. But that plot's on the back burner this month because we've got more exciting news! Remember how Charlotte said she'd seen April outside? And how Randy told Alan, who had Sam go stake the place out to check? Well, he saw her.  And Charlotte saw him.

What better test is there to prove that you're psychopathic enough to kill random strangers for school sport? Here's a toddler that looks like your girlfriend. Kill and eat it to satisfy the PTA.

Oh, so he's alone with his thoughts. No pressure from eyes on him, just him and the victim eye to eye, close quarters, where the victim has seen him and knows what is coming. Certain that he will see and hear the begging for mercy before he kills and eats them. He could choose not to kill this innocent, choose to walk out of the room and not play sports this school year. Or he could brutally murder and consume them for no good reason other than to satisfy the local school league guidelines and the bloodlust of some middleaged sad-sacks who are eternally remembering that one time they performed well enough for the coach to slap their butt on the way to the showers.

Ya'll are forgetting that in Hellworld, the prey have no rights save the fact if you are known by the predator that kills you, they get in trouble. So being tossed into a room with a high schooler to kill you is just another part of life. I mean, the only reason this is done in private is so Protagonist Centered Morality can happen yet again. The main cast never actually has to deal with a problem they can't cheat their way out of, and there's never any consequences for it. It reminds me of a lot of the comics/webcomics with the MarySue leads; I remember I used to read one called Harbourmaster, and I really wanted to like it, but how can you have a story about 6 foot tall sentient dragonflies, shapeshifting aliens, and realistic future civilizations (ie there's population control because we don't own the planet we're on) and it be SO BORING? And instead of focusing on anything intense, it's...paperwork. It's 2-3 people talking about poo poo that is common knowledge to them but not the reader. But what mostly strikes me is how, no matter what, the two central characters never actually have real consequences for....anything. Oh, one person is hiding a huge conspiracy, but it's Okay Because We're Friends. Another person manages to end his family's multigenerational grip on some business because He Wants To. There're literally no repercussions that they ever face that is ever dealt with meaningfully. As in, if you found out someone you considered a friend was hiding something huge, you wouldn't just say it's okay. There would be doubts about them for a good while, but nope. Same as if your super rich family needs/wants you to continue the line, you choosing to opt out, when there was never any indication you ever COULD before, is somehow presented as totally doable and again, no consequences. Same with Hellworld here. There are never any real consequences or suffering or anything but a smirk and quip for our central family because they are the Protagonists. Literally any issue they have will be solved in a comic or two, usually involving cheating, but again, It's Okay because they're the Protagonist.

Bruno's gonna have a very bad time. Meanwhile, meat itself would be no problem for a ruminant to digest, at least in small quantities; pretty much all animals can and will opportunistically eat meat. Deer regularly eat dead birds and fish when they find them. Bruno shouldn't have had any trouble joining a carnivore's feast in the first place.

Deer regularly eat dead birds and fish when they find them. Bruno shouldn't have had any trouble joining a carnivore's feast in the first place. Deer will eat baby birds right out of the nest, if they happen to find one. It's, uh, a little off-putting to see a deer kill and eat a flapping nestling, if you're not expecting it. Meat is very energy dense compared to grass and leaves, and very few animals will pass that up if the opportunity presents itself. E: also, jesus everyone in new Nancy is an unrepentant rear end in a top hat. The joke is always "this person is an rear end in a top hat." which is fine on its own, I am pro making fun of assholes for being assholes, but it's basically the only joke the strip tells.

Super minor spoiler, but: later on, another herbivore will join the team, and the "every member of the team must share in the kill" rule is mentioned. They get around it by claiming that a tree which got knocked down during the hunt was also a prey. Also, in the real world, ruminants being fed meat from (diseased) animals is how we got the BSE (a.k.a. Mad Cow Disease) outbreak in Europe in the 1990s!
