Erm, I mean...

Even if we're merely discussing comic alter egos, I feel entirely inadequate to succeed the great Davem, and honoured to considered for the position.

We need a soapy smiley. A soapey.

Getting tired of not knowing what's going on? Well, we at the Downer are too. We may fix that one day. But for now...

Formy and Alien will be back with us on Thursday, so be on the look out for them! Find out where they are heading next on their adventures! It could be somewhere nice... But it probably isn't.

Haha, love how much that actually looks like Lommy.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 11-09-2009, 12:48 PM

It indeed does

I assumed it was her when I saw the Guard on the "promo-pic" (but then I think more people did).

Thinlómien · 11-19-2009, 02:57 PM

I'm quite cool.

Do you happen to know where I could get one for real?

It soon became apparent that this was not a metaphor.

That was the best part!

I love how those bullets just ricochet off of Miss Collins.

In other news,

And Formy wouldn't bathe otherwise?

wilwarin538 · 11-10-2009, 07:31 AM

Hmm, just noticed all the gross gooey stuff all over the floor of Collins' office, how strange.

It's from the graph. You can see it leaking in previous episodes.

There's often something odd going on in the background and it's nice to look out for it.

Or such a filthy mouth! Have you been eavesdropping in to my conversations with TGEW about university fees? That's what I reserve my choicest words for.

Yes, you can see it's been slowly spreading for about the last twenty strips.

Hookbill the Goomba · 11-11-2009, 06:07 PM

Not knowing the bubbly honours that await him, Formy wonders what he'll do.

Monday sees an epic chase between Lommy and Peter. Who will win? Well, just wait and find out.

Bêthberry · 11-15-2009, 01:53 PM

Anyone who does not believe in soap has got to be pretty darn smelly. That's all I can say.

HerenIstarion · 11-15-2009, 05:36 PM

Excuse my cheek, but what has belief to do with bathing? One can use soap all right without actually worshipping it...

I think that actually fits Alien pretty well, doesn't it?

Or at least I always had that impression (that does not substract anything from the fact that he is cute, though

Well, though it is true we don't have to smell the newspaper yet...).

Hookbill the Goomba · 12-13-2009, 06:01 PM

Want the facts? Then look no further.

Honestly, the phantom must be rolling with glee at all this media attention...

Now we return to Peter's adventures in the desert. But he meets someone you may find familiar...

The biggest plot twist of the series is coming up fast. On Thursday we get to see what Alien's been up to in his meeting with his mother. How can she deal with him and how will he convince her to give him money for his musical tour? After all, he needs to get people to listen to his hit songs. They're hits, you know.

Laurinquë · 12-13-2009, 07:12 PM

I've re-loaded the page five times, looked at "Archive Thing" latest episode page, and every time all my computer will display is a big empty space where this week's P&A should be. What am I going to do?

It works for all the other P&As, but not this one. *sobs*

Hmm. Not sure why that's happening. TRY THIS LINK and I'll look into it.

Laurinquë · 12-13-2009, 07:26 PM

Ah ha! I love that bloke. And Gertrude, I'm glad to see more of her.

It works! Thank you. I don't know why that happens either, but I do know that my computer is very reluctant to load any picture posted through tinypic.com. Does anyone else out there have problems viewing this P&A I wonder?

By the way, the Downer this week was really cute. It amused me greatly.

wilwarin538 · 12-13-2009, 07:52 PM

yay, cloak people, it's all starting to come together now!!
