IT’S NFTs WITH A PHOEBE TWIST! IT’S NPHTs!!!
Okay, so they’re not really NFTs. I’m not getting anywhere near the blockchain. But these are even better! Each non-procedurally-generated NPHT will be ‘minted’ to one of my high-tier Puck patrons – and they’ll know it’s theirs because their names will be on them! A new NPHT will be popping up every day or two all throughout April, so vote often to see ’em all!
VOTE TO TAKE IT TO THE MOON!!!
As for this comic…
For those wondering whether this episode would perhaps rekindle the Phoebe/Papa Shnorf romance, here’s your answer.
The answer is no.
Oh, yeah. I’ve got them in my back pocket. Give me just a second.
Or, as Sheriff Bart said as he rode into Rock Ridge, “Let me just whip this out.”
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
I’m doing that type of discussion on another webcomic.
Okay, if Phoebe were to be Sheriff Bart, which characters could Puck be?
Would Hot Dog Guy be Pastor Johnson?
Or the Hitchhiker’s Guide movie: “Are you wearin’ my underwear? ‘Cause I’m wearing yours, and they’re not doing the trick”.
Papa Shnorf is very much the Zaphod of this comic.
but Zaphod is a head of papa shnorf.
“but Zaphod is a head of papa shnorf.”
And an arm.
Hey, doesn’t hurt to ask.
HE’S INCONCEIVABLE
Is Papa Schnorf hunting that he’s the supposed bad guy? I mean, something like the guy who went to prom in a leather jacket and a beater.
He is not a bad guy. He is not a good guy. He is a guy. Like most of the characters in this comic, he doesn’t really fit nicely into any sort of moral box. He just … is.
Ah, so he is the bittersweet character.
Hey, don’t give me that look.
I’m a human, last time I checked anyhow, I’m built to label things.
It’s my raison d’etre. Labelling and pigeonholing.
Outside of Phoebe, who is unfailingly Lawful Good, all the characters are really a mixed bag. Even the ‘evil’ characters like Satan and Tracee dabble in virtue now and then.
She’s wearing them. Phoebe’s got it bad…
Maybe the boxers, at least.
She couldn’t find her dancer’s panties and thus needed something in case the skirt got distracted.
Papa Life sounds like Vogue Life in the Nega-Verse. The Nega-Duck to Darkwing Duck. Goattee Spock to Clean-Jaw Spock. Black Adam to Shazam…. Not a good thing for good-hearted, worldly innocent, flower spawn of Satan, Phoebe. Who knows what might awaken?
*I mean the DC-trademarked
Captain Marvel– (Hey, whatdoyaknow – a cease and desist from Disney’s lawyers just appeared in my hands.)Let’s not awaken such things. Though Nega-verse Puck would be a very fun thing to explore.
Well, it’s Canada, so Nega-Scott’s got to be in there.
So, here is where my mind went after reading Panel 1:
I thought it was a “time warp” and that they had managed to start the van, and Papa Schnorff drove it to the Scooby-Con, just in time for the everyone to pack up their displays… lol
No, too much of a time warp. Though they did get the van started.
Re: TWC incentive.
Devil Phoebe – I like it!
THIS is the Phoebe we REALLY wanted to see!
I knew someone would like that one.
She went off with Papa Schnorf’s t-shirt and boxers. And she would have gotten away with them if it hadn’t been for those rotten kids.
EG’s gotta code in a “Like” button…
So, Tyler and Daphne are the only sane couple here . . . for now.
Just about.
With any luck, that won’t last long.
Good or bad luck, or Puck luck – – – yeah, that’ll be Puck luck. Or Colin . . . Colin something, anyway.
Panel 3 is one of the most realistic panels in the whole comic – not in terms of costuming but in the way it reflects the first meeting of a couple after a breakup. Nice to see Phoebe get a chance to reject her clueless rejector.
She SO wants to be back in the Papa Life…
I think she would so want to be back in the papa life if papa were an entirely different person. Or if she could edit out the problematic elements of the Papa life. But she is emotionally smart enough to know that’s never going to happen.
There’s a reason why she’s a homeowner. And there’s a reason why it’s in a bad neighborhood, but, hey, homeowner!
And the way Canadian real estate has gone, a home in the slums is now likely worth about a million dollars, so … score?
“And the way Canadian real estate has gone, a home in the slums is now likely worth about a million dollars, so … score?”
No doubt it would get eaten up in this and that. Besides, where would they live then?
Therein lies the issue. My home is now worth well over a million, which is nice. But unless I care to sell it and move to Lesotho, I can’t really see any benefit because every other house costs just as much or more than mine.
I try for a weird form of verisimilitude here.
There’s that word again, ‘verisimilitude.’ Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravity such that it inadvertently affects hand held cameras?
If he liked them so much, he shouldn’t have let her take them.
I think she got over it in the first day or two.
Ever notice Papa Shnorf looks a bit like Zardoz?
You are the first person to note this. But the resemblance is intentional.
HAPPY WALPURGIS EVERYONE !
The cat always emerges at this time of year. We are happy for that.
Ha. The author David Weber, in his Safehold series, has a cat-lizard named Ardith (I believe) as a minor character. The following line has stuck with me since the first read= “Ardith for his part had decided snow was a terrible idea”.
Happy Walpurgis!
I don’t think Papa meant his question literally. 😉
Perhaps not.
