As for this comic…
Whoa, check it out! Plot! We haven’t seen stereotypical mobster Tony Bruno since his ill-fated attempt to run for mayor, but he’s never far from our hearts. He’s only back for this one comic, though, so get your fill of pinstripes while you can!
uh oh. Somebody will be very, very p*****d.
Who? It will depend on if Satan knows about this.
You think Satan knows which way is up or down? He’s wandering through life right now in a hormonally charged midlife crisis-type fog! I think, at this point, that if he knew, he wouldn’t particularly care as long as Tracee was still in (or out of) that bikini.
Tracee…..
Oh joy! Confrontation coming between Phoebe and Tracee? This should be interesting (especially if Daphne gets involved)!
With Daphne involved, the confrontation is guaranteed to happen.
We’ll see. Tracee is in another league. I think these two are going to find this a bigger fight than they expect.
Tracee may be in a different league, but I am of the opinion it is NOT a superior league than Daphne’s.
What’s Phoebe holding in her hand in the last panel?
Money. A Canadian twenty and a five, to be specific.
So… play money?
(awww, snap!)
Play money would be worth slightly more.
“So… play money?”
yeah – snort
Look, you American types. Your money, American money, from the perspective of most of the developed world, is a hilariously dated relic. It looks like it’s out of the late 1800’s. It has few security features, making it one of the easiest to counterfeit. No color differentiation between values, no real color at all. It’s ugly as sin.
But all of that doesn’t matter because everyone wants it…
I think they’ll need to have the showdown in the bikini jello wrestling room that was installed for such occasions.
I say that sarcastically, though with this house its a real possibility.
Oooh, good idea!
money im sure.looks like shes buying the picture.
It’s money. Or what passes for money up here.
Tony’s back (even if only for one strip)?
…
*Tears of joy*
Well, he’s back by popular demand! (Translation: no one has ever expressed even vague positivity toward this character. Ever.)
So where will she hang the picture?
I dunno, I’m sure she’s got some wall space somewhere.
In HELL! Maybe?
Prohibition era Chicago is about the only place you’ll find mobsters in pinstripe suits. Is Tony immortal?
Maybe. There seem to be a few of them in this world.
There can be only one.
Tony…. is a demigod! The son of um, uh, the god of pinstripes! Of course. Maybe the god of fedoras.
I wonder if there’s a god of Hawaiian shirts out there. For some reason, I think he would look like Meatloaf.
I watched ‘Wayne’s World’ last night and realized the Meatloaf is in it as a bouncer/doorman.
He looks so skinny and young in it. 😀
(I think that’s about the time he was on the health kick)
My younger brother adopted that visual aesthetic for quite a while. That and his brief obsession with ska music. Pinstripe suits, trilby hats and ska…
It was… somewhat horrifying.
I think he may have given that up now, but only because he lives so far out in the Welsh countryside that nobody ever gets to see what he wears any more.
As they say: Beware the nice ones. And Phoebe is a very, very nice girl, so if you manage to actually piss her off the eventual explosion is going to be epic. So far it’s looking like Tracee is making good headway towards an explosive Phoebe situation.
In other words: Vengeance in 5… 4… 3…
My life experience has shown that you need to beware the fake nice ones. Real nice ones are actually usually pretty bad at the vengeance game. Luckily Phoebe will probably have some assistance on this one…
And Phoebe is really nice unless I have totally misread her (I would definitely invite her to my birthday party!). Daphne would be a big help, but Puck’s sis-in-law would be more like it.
And now someone’s on the right track…
That someone being you.
Yay!
I know a couple girls that I’d skip town if I got an invitation to one of their parties.
Daphne almost qualifies for that caution.
Insulted. Definitely insulted.
I guess there’s only one right answer here.
Electric Gecko you should check out The Andromeda Strain it’s very good.The novel came out in 1969 and the film versions came out in 1971 and 2008.
Aha. The other shoe has dropped.
It’s not every floozy who can play the lord of lies, so that’s impressive, at least.
Well, this lord of lies has kind of gone soft, methinks. He’s not on his A game anymore. He’s more a ‘lord of selfish befuddlement’ now.
Like I’ve said before, he’s on his D-game. 😉
no offense to daphne, but don´t underestimate phoebe´s abilities revenge-wise! she´s the daughter of SATAN after all….
Have you seen this Satan? It’s hard to put much credit in the guy.
Wow. That Puckforce cover. It’s like I’m back in the 90’s again! The blank, white eyes! The obscured feet! The spinebreaking poses! The snarlygrowly faces for everyone! The ridiculous costumes and weapons!
Seriously, did we really buy stuff like this back then? What the hell was wrong with us? We ought to have a long, stern talk with our past selves.
And I really, truly, inexplicably loved that stuff back then. I have no excuse. Other than the fact that I was thirteen.
D-did you actually draw spats on that guy? lololol man, I love this strip! 😀
I think so. The fact that I had to look up the meaning of spats shows how little I know about guy fashion, but that concept as sort of in my head.
Two-tone shoes would be more period-appropriate, I think.
Maybe that was what I was thinking. I dunno.
Actually, real life mobsters are more like government MIB’s…
Not around here. Around here the real mobsters are greasy Italian fat guys, and a few well dressed ones. The young ones actually tend to be more stylish than the old guard. But what can I say? I live in a blue collar mob kind of town.
See what I’m sayin ?
Canada is fifty years behind the USA.
But in a good way. Don’t ever change…..
How much for the one of Elizabeth Taylor? Or did Phoebe use her Howlers tips to buy that one already?
Good question. That one probably has more market value. Like, AT LEAST fifty bucks.
