This is exactly why Alien should never be allowed near the name changing office. Who knows who else has had their name changed by him? Things could get very confusing, very quickly.

Leaf A question...

Hookie, did you perchance draw inspiration for the Old Woman of the Sea from me?

Haha! Why? Do you live under the sea?
I just asked Josh to 'draw the old woman of the sea, who looks a bit like Alien's costume, only a bit different.' and that's what he came up with. But now that you mention it, she does look a bit like... Um... Never mind.

Sooooo...are we looking at another member of Alien's extended family, or does this new nightmare just resemble Alien in Father Formy's fevered imagination?

Interesting thought. Who knows what lurks in Alien's strange and terrible family history?

Good newspaper by the way, though I am a little late in saying so.

Agreed. I Loved the plot development in P & A as well. Oh, and the headlines were punny too.

Interestingly enough, a certain Downer once named me a Sea Hag. I think our resemblance is clear enough even though I don't wear nail polish.
(For the record, do you think anybody but Legate could have taken such a flattering photo?)
