			Back referencing Downers from years ago is sometimes funny...  Gertrude is up to something... but what?  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 The plot thickens. Like your soup. Come back on Thursday when we shall see how Peter is getting on with taking over an empty building! Also, anyone who is interested in helping out for The Downer's 200th edition, PM me for fun times and cool stuff. I've got most of my plans ready but am still open to suggestions.

			I have been spending this whole night reading these comics! *hehe*  Question: is the guy on the home page standing next to the bus the same guy as in the blue cloak? |

			I think the guy on the home page is Peter Hampton, while the Phantom is Philip Hampton. (The last name is Hampton, right?)

			Wow, can't believe I never noticed that before, haha. Brilliant!   I think Gertrude is pretty cool, and now she's like a spy, which is cooler!

			Another Question: Volume 3 Episode 84: Gutter Press and 87:Park and bribe, aren't those two orange haired people the same? How did it change so fast? Edit: Nevermind http://joelcornah.webs.com/characters.htm

			But... but... it was a publicity stunt to raise awareness for the Wights' Green Mould Charity! All we want is for all wights to have the opportunity to have that green fungus that we all take for granted! *is offended at lack of public support* edit: 3000th post? WOOOO! But I'd been planning to save it for something special. Then again, what is more special than having your name in the top story of the Downer's magazine?

			Peter and Death have some fun at Bus HQ  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 Going to go back to the once a week P&A from Monday for a week. Josh has been busy with his collage final project thing. BUT! I am trying to talk him into making a Phalian animation. It'll be epic.

			Peter looks rather awesome in the fifth panel.   And I love how more darts land in the hat between panels.

			Well, The Piano was seen repeatedly in the position of a grey embassy (in the background) of various pics in various episodes. You can try to look for it, but be careful... it might look for you... (I think Nietzsche said something like that...)

			Three Papers away from the BIG 200!!  The Phantom has had fun at the burial... Hasn't he?  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 Probably no P&A this Thursday, but we'll be back with a bang next week! Expect thrills, spills and drills! Note, none of those may actually be in any of the episodes. Especially the drills.

			The time draws nearer for the 200th and final edition of the Downer! Did I say final? I meant... something...  P and A Is back with a bang! This time, Lommy has some odd ideas...  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 On Thursday we'll be seeing some more of that King Bus. It really does seem to get everywhere, doesn't it?

			Oh, goodness! Where did the gun come from? Who gave Lommy a gun?   Also, they didn't take the money because they knew I'd already stolen it and exchanged it for fake gold.
