MAY IS HERE!!! FANTASY GOODNESS COMES OUR WAY!!!
Patrons voted for dragons, so …
As for this comic…
I think everyone knew this was where we were heading. If anyone is legitimately surprised, though, let me know. I’m sure there’s one of you out there.
Props to Satan for at least recognising that they’ve treated Phoebe bad.
But Tracee is 100% correct about Phoebe being a much much better person. Also, glad to know she’s not so high and mighty that she won’t accept slumming it with them.
Of course, Puck might have something to say about that… but Puck won’t be able to overcome Phoebe’s begging… especially since Phoebe technically owns the house.
Well, Puck has somewhat warmed to them. She might not be a big hurdle.
“Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.”
We will just have to see how this pans out in the long term.
It shall pan out in … expected and unexpected ways. As always.
Pans out, as in the cast-iron pan that gets swung at his head by Puck?
There’s the Tracee that we know and barely tolerate.
And how!
i´m already looking forward to her interacting with daphne – either they´ll be at each others throat, or form an unholy alliance that´ll teach satan how to become evil again
I get the feeling that they’d broadly leave each other alone. Their interests don’t really coinside or conflict. I’d expect some hissing, but no real issues
He seems so excited.
It’s a good thing for them that it’s not Puck’s house. ’cause she may not actually be better than them. She just aspires.
Puck is not better than them. Like you said, she just makes an effort to be not the worst sometimes.
Tracee being around Miranda again could be considered as some free babysitting. And some fun shenanagins.
Fun shenanigans are always our goal. We have laser focus on the shenanigans.
Awwww. Guess who just found a new job as perma babysitters?
Well, that may be a factor. Tracee would welcome it now.
I’m actually looking forward to that.
Finally, a family situation comedy to rival Married with Children for dysfunction.
Do with what you have and not with what you don’t have. I mean given Phoebe’s nature it seems likely that she will allow her father and Tracee to crash into their lives for a while.
It is not likely of Phoebe to say no all of the sudden, right ?
It is not likely. Though it is likely that she’d WANT to say no.
I’m getting used to the fact that I can see Satan’s hands. I’m kinda hoping that slowly his shadowy veil gets removed as he lives with Puck & Phoebe.
Look at the name of the chapter. Just a little hint.
Who’s the guy checking out Tracee?
Could it be a subtle self portrait of our Professor Gecko?
Dear God, I hope not. I am not a scruffy, transient old dude.
Don’t sell yourself short.
Grumble grumble.
I just thought you managed to dig up a picture of me from somewhere
Random homeless guy. There are a lot of them in Hamilton, sadly. Like most North American cities.
I love Tracee’s expression in the last panel! It’s perfect for her line
I need to get back to more ‘screaming’ expressions. They’re fun.
I like how Tracee is more cunning and exploitative than Satan himself. You go girl.
Well, he’s lost his mojo. He’s not in peak form. She now outranks him.
Come to think of it, maybe this story arc could end with Tracee taking the helm of the EvilCorp which recently booted Satan, as she’s better suited for the job.
I’m starting to see things from the trio of evil servant’s perspective. If Satan can’t see the diabolical angles of familial exploitation, he really has lost his edge. Tracee’s good, but she shouldn’t be able to out-evil Satan.
He’s not even in Heather’s league right now.
He’s kinda pathetic now. Even a fallen angel has more room to fall, I guess.
We all saw this coming, let the hilarity begin.
You’re all too smart. I can’t surprise you with anything.
Seeing that Airwolf shirt reminds me of the time I saw the Lady in flight as a teenager. I was swimming at the family cottage one summer day when I heard a helicopter over the trees. That was not a big deal; helicopters flew between CFB Trenton and CFB Ottawa all the time, pretty much over our place. Then, while treaded water, I saw a black and white Bell 222 come over the trees towards me at a pretty slow speed. I was thinking, “That looks like Airwolf, but that is down in California, not up here in Ontario.” A few seconds later the Santini Air Jet Ranger emerged above the trees with a big camera mount slung under the nose, flying in formation behind The Lady close enough to make ATC flip out under any other circumstances. They flew over the lake and kept going. It turns out they were going to an air show out at an Ottawa airport. They were filming during that pass and the shot of our wooden cottage on the point on a narrow lake was used in the show in one of the accelerated sequences; I was the guy out front of the cottage doing the backstroke at 70 knots.
Just read that the helicopter that played Airwolf eventually crashed in Germany after being repurposed and killed all people on board. Kinda puts a damper on it all. Curse you, Wikipedia, for telling me these things!
Panel 3 Guy looks like he’s not checking Tracee out; he’s thinking, “Dang, there’s a line at the clothing donation station. And I want that Airwolf shirt!”
Far more accurate. To my mind, it’s the look of a barely conscious man shambling across a parking lot.
I honestly don’t remember them kicking her out. I assume that was a long time ago.
August of 2014. Just … a little while ago.
Airwolf, eh? Perhaps foreshadowing Satan and Tracee’s return to the mansion? As in, they bust the roof open, saying “We’re here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and we’re all out of bubblegum!”
Eventually? Maybe.
I don’t remember that from Airwolf, but that was one of Roddy Piper’s lines in They Live.
But it spiritually works for Airwolf too. And most 80s action properties.
Tracee’s a dangerous combo of cybernetic petro-chemical polymer plastic augmented thot and upwardly economically mobile Celtic-Canadian dragon woman. This may become an interesting twist in the story and challenge for the characters affected.
Beautiful description of Tracee.
Phoebe is incredibly nice so S&T are incredibly lucky. 🙂
S&T sounds like a telecommunications company.
