Nick & Lever 55: Making Curry  Refute their logic, you cannot! Also that's not chocolate Lever's munching at the end, Japanese style curry is sold in bars similar to chocolate. You break off a few bricks and throw it straight in the pan with maybe some water. Fake edit: I didn't notice Nick's bib until I was previewing the post. 56: Decluttering  I like that Nick talks to his videos.   I feel like Nick & Lever as characters have existed for hundreds of years within the Zen philosophy. 56.5: Forgetfulness   This is probably one of Nick & Lever's most iconic pages for these three panels.

cont'd one more  ANGEL CATBIRD post for today and then once per day or page I guess Several large bruises have materialized on my body purely from the sheer blunt trauma of the last panel of the previous post, but soothing these lethal injuries somewhat is how our evil villain has names for each and every one of his rat minions. It's just precious.   It's been a while since I've actually re-read this comic, so sometimes I come across a panel that feels a whole lot like what I imagine taking a sidewinder missile directly to your balls feels like. Like this, where Strig sees a cat pissing on his front porch and his immediate instinct is to think "I can do better than that!" and whip out his hog. This comic was written by Margaret Atwood, whose flagship novel is required reading in many high schools.   Another consistent theme through this comic is that while the art isn't necessarily bad (okay, maybe a little, but that's somewhat forgivable considering the character designs Atwood provided) is that there is absolutely no consistency to how any of the characters are drawn. Sometimes Strig looks like a Clark Kent clone. Sometimes he looks like a George Lincoln Rockwell impersonator. They're all horrible! I don't like it!   String runs into his coworker, who directs him to the cat club called the Catastrophe. Also more inconsistent art in the second panel, where it looks like String just stepped in a puddle of DMT.  Introducing the other cat people, who kinda look like the cats from Cats but worse. Seriously, look at this poo poo. They look more like failed Batmen. Also, I like Strig's love interest punctuating her text with a meow. That's how you know she's a cat!   Anyway, this is what she looks like in her cat form, which equates to her having cat ears, whiskers, a tail, but still looking entirely human, complete with a human skin tone. I think the intention here was to make her seem alluring, but the result is more akin to a furry as drawn by an alien who had the concept of a furry described to them through a tin can once. Why do her pants have whiskers? This is a love interest made in a lab to be as un-sexy as felinely possible.  This comic has outright shown plenty of times that other animals are outright sapient, so this really seems like the equivalent of Love Interest (I'm calling her this until I can remember her name) just provoking an impromptu rat pogrom  How did they not see the giant camera fixed on the rat's head?   Here lies Strig Faleedus, stabbed in a bar fight. He never scored.   The blunt concussion transforms Strig, who turns into ANGEL CATBIRD of ANGEL CATBIRD fame. He looks completely awful, but this is quickly defused when Love Interest points out that they all look like freaks. This is a completely valid point, except she and the other catmens merely look freakish where looking at ANGEL CATBIRD makes me want to parrot Warhammer 40k quotes about why I should fear and despise the mutant. Catula. The Handmaid's Tale has sold eight million copies.  As Strig confronts the fact that vampires apparently exist, our brave villain that I'm honestly willing to hear out finds out that something's amiss when he discovers his best spy rat has been turned into cat poo poo. next Blarghalt has a new favorite as of 10:55 on Mar 9, 2024 |

It's still funny to me that Strig is Muroid's employee and had already completed the project. Muroid did not need any schemes or treachery, he literally could've said, "great, get me a write-up of your results by noon tomorrow" and all of this could've been avoided Muroid when I explain this to him:

Hyouge Mono Ceremony 61: Let's Go Crazy         Looks like Sasuke is starting to come out of his funk, good for him. The Dragon, the Hero and the Courier Episode 31.4: The Genius Actor Gives Jousting a Go      This bonus chapter appears to be a collaboration with some Japanese celebrity I've never heard of. It's got enough of the weird historical flavour for DHC, so I'm keeping it in. This is the last bonus chapter for this volume, main line DHC returns in may three or four days?

Angel catbird... Has to be a deliberate parody / homage to silver age insanity right? Deliberately and knowingly so? It's not like it's written in an identifiable Atwood voice. E: Like the little cat fact bits. Didn't Dick Tracy or something like that have those?

In contrast to all the horrified posting, let me just say I absolutely adore the Atwood joint because it reads to me like a bunch of people having tremendous fun going completely off the deep end. She's done a crazy amount of serious writing, here there's clearly zero editorial control so she gets to just cut loose with whatever random fever dream from youth floats to the surface, let's go with it and cackle with glee. I'm here for it. None of which means it's good, to be clear. Vanity publishing is the right term as far as I can tell.
