This week, The Downer makes a pointless attempt to enter the future…

But The Phantom and Alien are not impressed and so stayed as they were

An interesting thing I'll point out for this week's P&A. In the last frame, Alien was originally holding a saw covered in blood. I removed it because I thought it was too sick.

Before I read what Alien actually said, I thought at first that Phantom was actually going to do him in.
Horrible isn't it? Good thing we all take some forethought...

The Film itself is completely useless. There is virtually no story line and it would seem that it was thrown together in about twelve minutes. Which is impressive as the film is more than two hours long. All that happens is that the main characters just stand around complaining about the weather and alluding to the loss of their reputation points.

I'm sure the music is amazing, though.

How absolutely absurd. I must protest! It is utterly impossible for The Downer to enter the future without a Time Lord.

There is a key figure who is imperative here, I say. And I do believe I have just made a bilinqual pun.

Thank you. That is all.

I quite like the new format - is it permanent?

No its not. Just a novelty, like the olden times one.

By the way, folks. We're coming up to the Phantom and Alien's 50th episode soon. If anyone wants to submit their own ideas for a special full page comic I will be very happy to consider any ideas. Are there any Downers you'd like to see make an appearance? Any situations you'd like to see our heroes get into? Do you want a Dragon? Do you, heaven forbid, want jokes?

Aline has yet another run in with the law...
