And have it look like I'm needy for more rep? That would be quite tasteless of me, don't you think? And not the sort of thing the Mods smile on.

Exactly the sort of thing that might turn up in a rag like The Downer, in fact.

So, really, one shouldn't be so absurd!

Loved, loved, loved P & A this week. "When your father owned this company...I hated him!" I didn't expect it at all. And the lines just before the flashback, hilarious.

Wow, Boro, first the Llama and now a Bear,

.

"Notoriously Canadian" that's too funny!!!

Loved how tiny Phantom looks compared to Miss Collins, haha.

I think my favorite bit is the outrageous inflation of the reward after discovering the true rumor.

So you don't want rep?

Although I am happy to see Edward the Confessor appearing in the newspaper, I did expect him to take up more space.

"Did you know that Edward the Confessor build Geneva airport entirely out of jam?"

Of course I don't want any neg-rep!

(You failed to specify what kind of rep I deserve... and we Downer reporters know how society treats us--like scum and villainy!)

You obviously don't know about most of your fans. Oh, Writers for the Downer Newspaper. Which, I sometimes am a part of.

I understand you not wanting neg reps, however, I've never given out a neg rep. I don't want to stop my flow.

It's time to travel back a further five years. Back to when Father Formy was a happier man. A man with less worries. Oh dear...

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 Monday we'll get to meet Peter's Father, him being the previous owner of Bus Co. He, unlike Collins, could fit into the chair behind the desk. But did he do a good job? Well, there's only one way to find out...

Haha, I'd feel bad for that puppy if it wasn't for the fact that Alien looks super cute while eating it! hehe
