My sympathies to Mr Wilber. It is indeed hard to make a living when you are terrifying ghostly creature in a black hood. But he does have a fine hat.

Ah yes, Kurdistan. It was so easy. Such a shame I won't be able to rule it now that TheGreatElvenWarrior poisoned me with cyanide. The recovery is going to take a while. Epic article Lottie! I'd rep you for it but I have to spread the love around some more before I can give to you again.

MOUNT ZOOM?

Does it mean that Alien is so forgetful that he forgot about the bus completely, or is it that he remembered the bus, and it's the revelation of Mount Zoom's origins? Now that's what I'd call a revelation.

Mount Zoom is pretty epic. As was Morsul's eyes at the end. This was a really awesome one!!!!

Another early post as I have to actually wake up tomorrow...



Now it's time for Death to come to his senses...



Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien in these confusing and silly stories I'm weaving around, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING


Make sure to catch up on P&A because the story is going to get a LOT weirder in the next few episodes. You'll want to see Monday's episode; THE LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN BUS!

That wasn't what I had in mind, but it's an interesting idea...

Yes, that's the first thing I thought of. I'll continue to interpretate Alien's words in that way, I think it's cool...

Nevertheless, with Morsul on board (literally), I wonder who else is there who had not been introduced yet (aside from my favourite, Mr. Mop, of course).

Indeed, I haven't followed the comic for some time now, and didn't you your brother took over the artwork department.
He is really talented though, I can't imagine ever doing something like that in Paint.

Once my exams are all done I'll have to take a look in the P&A archive to get up to date.

Well, you really have a LOT to catch up with... but at least you can read it all at once and would not be troubled by "ugh, I have to week until the next issue is released"...

And maybe, as it all will be fresh in your memory when you read it, you might spot something which others didn't... (Or then your brain will be overflowed with the nonsense and, fittingly and to Mr. Editor-in-Chief's great delight, explode.)

I put that cyanide in your drink. Remember? Out at that restaurant the other night? Or maybe you don't, 'cause you're dead.

Don't you always have to spread the love?

Also, I thought that Alien was going to say Mount Zoom as well. I was absolutely positive.

On Monday we'll see how Peter and Death get along. Once Death has recovered from his hang-over, I expect... This could take a while.

For a second I thought you meant Hugh Laurie was in this episode and I hadn't spotted him.

Nope, sorry. Did you plan to put House the Very Large Mouse in or did your brother put him in on his own initiative? He defiantly deserved to come back at least once more.
