It's moments like these that remind me what a great storyteller Thorsby is.

This species of aliens probably change gender as they become more successful. More success -> more male.

That's really weird.

Is there any way I could get his contact information? Though I have little experience in writing scripts, I'd like to try adapting "Lies, Sisters and Wives" into a one-act stage play and I'd like his permission first.

I had this idea too, but never did anything with it. I think it would make an excellent one act, good luck!

One of these days, Thornsby comics need to be adapted into a movie.

I'm waiting for the one from a universe that diverged enough such that he's side character in Hitmen for Destiny.

It's interesting the way Ulf is learning, though.

You nailed it harder than Aisha nailed that random guy.

He probably spoiled himself from another universe where the author releases updates faster.

To be fair, Thorsby does update like clockwork on Mon/Wed/Fri.

Must say I am pretty curious as to what he is aiming for with TDBC, maybe just an exploration of Ulf as a character? There's been a real lack of a central conflict.

It's pretty early in the story, I wouldn't be suprised if everything happening so far is some elaborate lead-in.

All the Ulfs are going to want to spy on the same 15 women aren't they.

Given Ulf's previously established personality, I'd say this is the part where he reveals he cloned himself to do life stuff while he continues to work.

Not buying the current plotline. An ulf multi-mind smart enough to create a mind virus must also realize how loving stupid religion is.

They will all be infected by all the viruses, which will cause them all to realize that they (ulf) are the true gods.

Well, that was an...ending?

Probably my least favorite work by Thorsby. The starting bits were great, but as it moved forward I didn't get that great classic Thorsby feeling. I feel the relative shortness of this work indicates that Thorsby ran out of ideas at some point and is interested in getting to his next work. I wonder what it will be!
