You're blowing smoke in my eyes Hookbill, really?

Hrmmm. I think I'll pass on asking the obvious questions about how you end up with Alien out of those chromosomes...

Recessive genes, obviously. Lots of them. Green ones, even.

... And some bow-tie dominant genes too, for good measure?

True, true... Dear me, I think we've just turned ourselves into a garage band group of eugenicists.

Well, I saw the leaking graph in the background the first time I saw it!

Don't forget the spontaneous combustion of the bus picture! I really DO adore all those background details. They make re-reading P&A so much fun! No more steaks lying around though, it's just so sad.

Once again I'm forced to do a bit of early posting. Sorry about that.

Now, lets get back to Alien, Formy and the Soap Pope. I wonder what kind of craziness 'Old Woman of the Sea' can think up next...

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, John Fillis' mutation reaches dangerous new levels of strangeness. And by 'dangerous' I, of course, mean FOR OTHER PEOPLE. Oh, and the adorably baby Alien will be showing up pretty soon in a flashback starting next week. So look forward to that, all of you.

I'm surprised no one has commented on the leaking graph in the background.

Some of you may know the story of my original plan for P&A. My first idea was for it to be "The Phantom and Gorilla" but I soon discovered that I couldn't draw a gorilla. So, instead, I made a crude slime creature and called him 'Alien'. But I wanted to make a little homage to the duo that never was. Maybe one day we will see 'The Phantom and Gorilla'. Who knows.
Yeah, basically, that's why Alien's father is a gorilla. But they have the same bow-tie! That counts, right?

To tell you the truth, the first time I saw the graph, like 2 weeks ago, or whenever it was, I thought the huge spike, but disastrous fall spilling onto the floor was hilarious, just never decided to comment on it. Not sure why I kept it to myself?

I see now that the puddle of (what liquid is it? blood? beef juice?) whatever is growing larger and larger.
