After the fall he's never the same again. Declines rapidly once in a care home and dies off screen. Funky moves into the Crankshaft role, Mopey Pete becomes the new Funky. The cycle continues ever onward.

Transmodiar posted:Modesty Blaise: With Love From Rufus Last thread or maybe the one before that Modesty's age was canonically stated in one of these as being twenty-five. I seem to recall that most of us agreed that seemed like an unrealistically lowball estimate for a woman we'd assumed had to be at least thirty. Moments like this where Modesty is acting like she'd be a cradle robber for hooking up with a twenty-year-old definitely do a lot to back up that headcanon.

Moments like this where Modesty is acting like she'd be a cradle robber for hooking up with a twenty-year-old definitely do a lot to back up that headcanon. Yeah, I don't think O'Donnell explicitly states Modesty's age, and I know in a some of the books it the character mentions that even she isn't sure how old she is. According to the wikipedia article Modesty is usually stated to be in her late 20's and Willie in his mid 30's. quote:In keeping with the "floating timeline" spirit of other long-running comic strip and literary characters, Modesty and Willie generally do not age over the decades, with Modesty always being depicted as being in her late 20s and Willie eight years older. The only exceptions to this rule occur in the comic strip origin story, "In the Beginning"; the 1996 short-story collection Cobra Trap, the final Modesty Blaise book, which contains five stories that take place where Modesty's age moves from 20 to 52 (approximately); and the 2003 film My Name Is Modesty, which is a prequel depicting Modesty in her late teens.

If I remember correctly from the books, Modesty was still a teenager when she created The Network, and in her early 20s when she and Willie cashed out and "retired."

The Demons of Baseball I'd like to explicitly clarify, since I'd misremembered this from the first time I read the comic, that Sohn didn't have a heart attack because the Cowboys lost, but because he realized Planck was going to do the Ultimate Defense poorly on purpose to cripple himself and the aggravation caused by that killed Sohn before he could stop the game. There's no way for any other character to know this, though, since we only saw it from Sohn's internal perspective. edit: The original post had one of the thought bubbles not translated, sorry.

So now, even if the Demons win the next game (putting them 4-1 in the series) they get recognition, but not paid right? Sohn's dead, Plank's a vegetable, and the team is going to be disbanded regardless of any game outcome? What a story!

Steeple 20: Extreme Freaks with more from the Second Epistle of Peter John Allison's Patreon John Allison's Gumroad store Steeple website From the wiki article on Balaam: quote:Balaam (/ˈbeɪlæm/;[1] Hebrew: בִּלְעָם, Standard Bīlʿam Tiberian Bīlʿām), son of Beor, was a biblical character, a non-Israelite prophet and diviner who lived in Pethor. According to chapters Numbers 22–24 of the Book of Numbers, he was hired by King Balak of Moab to curse Israel, but instead he blessed the Israelites, as dictated by God. Subsequently, the plan to entice the Israelites into idol worship and sexual immorality (Numbers 25:1–3) is attributed to him (Numbers 31:16). Update, Allison's comments for this page: John Allison posted:I don’t think Billie has gone full blood and thunder preacher. She’s just giving everything a go. Given the reception she’s getting, my suspicion is that she won’t be giving this particular strand a go much longer. The_Other fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Jan 10, 2024 |

Peanut butter toast is respectable quick breakfast. Mousetrapped Weakheart was Dinky Doodle's dog in another Walter Lantz series for the Bray Studio. The name was a rib on Strongheart (born Etzel von Oeringen), a German shepherd film star who preceded Rin Tin Tin by a few years. Out Our Way (February 12-14, 1925) Out Our Way: Wes Begins (February 13, 1925) And a bonus: a tiny story about intramural squabble in Germany that I'm sure won't have any long-term consequences. Toonerville Folks (April 27-29, 1922) OLD MAN PENNYPACKER, THE VILLAGE TIGHTWAD: You don't catch Old Man Pennypacker paying any dentist to yank a tooth when he can have the R.R. Co. do it for him for nothing. NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS: Four of Mickey McGuire's Gang (every man a crack shot) discovered Willie Davis in the act of repairing his radio. SHARON POTTS, THE GOOSE CRICK FERRYMAN: While Sharon was moving Maud Beasley's stuff across the crick, Egghead Harris heaved a big rock into the water behind them and Maud and Sharon are still scrapping about what it was that fell off, if anything. Dok's Dippy Dry Goods (January 28, 1915) Little Lefty (September 27, 29-30, 1939 (because I screwed up the posting order again last night))
