NEW VOTING INCENTIVE! IT’S MANGA MARCH!!
Puck is turning into a sci-fi manga this month! Vote each week to see the full pic take form!
As for this comic…
Someone suggested a few weeks back that I should take a few weeks to show a series of comics detailing the reactions of each character to seeing Satan’s face for the first time. That has appeal, but I have decided to just put everyone in panel one of this comic. There you go. Sorry I’ve robbed people of the individual reactions. Though Phoebe’s not here; I guess we’ll get Phoebe’s reaction eventually. Maybe. Not sure where she is right now.
Hahahaha, nice 🙂
Happy smile in return.
Awww, Daphne. Those creepy guys just don’t understand how to use their words, personal space and quite possibly, personal hygiene.
That, or they’re really eager for their WcDonald’s happy meal.
I am immediately wary of anyone who is that eager for McDonald’s.
If I’m that eager, I’m probably starving, and definitely in the drive-thru lane anyway. (Sometimes you’ve got work and late errands).
the drive through is the place to be for all who crave great fries yet want to avoid the creepy guys 😉
I appreciate the rhyme.
the thing about the drive thru is.. the only thing you know is you will not get what you wanted or ordered.
Wait. Tracee is trying to be supportive? TRACEE?
Well, the man’s at a low. She can’t kick him when he’s this down.
They’re not trying to help. They’re trying to be clever. 🙂
Or funny. Desperately trying to be funny. Or is it me who’s desperate? I guess it is.
No one seems to have any reason to be desperate. Unless it’s Miranda. Does she need changing?
What Manga is Phoebe based on?
Dirty Pair. More the anime.
Twilight Sunstargot the first call on that last week IIRC
I’m wondering who the shadow has gone to. Sigmund or … Phoebe.
Shadow doesn’t go to anyone. It’s just his personal thing.
What’s he holding on his head? Peas or lima beans?
Looks like it says Frozen Peas on the label, and little English peas showing underneath.
Yup. Frozen peas.
Full of country goodness and green pea-ness. No, that’s terrible. I quit!
…
Just a handful for the road..
We appreciate all that you do for us.
Mighty kind of ya.
And both to continue the reference, AND tie in my other thread:
What luck! There’s a french fry stuck in my beard.
Better frozen peas than yellow snow.
I’m sort of thinking that Phoebe will not have any reaction at all. Being his daughter, she’s always been able to see through his shade to the real shamble of a figure underneath. But I like Gthulu’s idea that his shade may have transferred to the nearest available demon, Phoebe.
I like your concept on her not even noticing, and was indeed planning something along those lines. No shadow transfer, though. Phoebe isn’t the type.
Now there’s the *cough* sensitive Daphne I know.
Is Tracee prepared NOW to admit that her love for the lug may not be material, but *GASP* emotional?
That may be the problem with Satan’s evil. He needs to get back to some good old fashioned LUST again.
MSLA – Make Satan Lust Again.
I think the lust isn’t the problem. More on that next comic, but I think the pride, greed, envy and wrath have all sorta waned.
Why hasn’t Satan had his treacherous underlings eaten alive by rabid gerbils yet?
Someone as old and as (formerly) evil as him must have a few dozen contingencies in his backpocket ready for emergencies or treacherous minions?
He really IS slacking on the pride, greed, envy and wrath if he didn’t plan extensively for betrayal (or maybe he did and just doesn’t want to pull the trigger….?)
The man has moved to Canada. That’s as close to retirement as a demon can get.
Hey, we’ve got evil up here; it’s just quieter.
He has lost his way. He needs his way to be found for him.
Shouldn’t be a problem in that house. Daphne could be his new advisor. How many times has she swindled – I mean had business dealings – with locals willing to part with their money? Not to mention gambling in her younger days. And Lord help anyone who gets in the way of Puck’s wrath! Just needs a few good days in their house and all will be well…
You see where this is going.
Was that Sigmund’s job?
Ah, frozen peas. The go-to bag of flexible iciness to dull the pain from injuries like bumps, bruises, strains, sprains, and being beaned by a rolling pin.
Let me guess – this bag of peas was in the deepest, darkest, iced-over corner of the freezer, and have essentially been forgotten about for years, until just such an emergency…
TBH – I always have a bag of peas and another of corn that I keep for this. They are never to be eaten, they are just used as ice packs. MUCH cheaper than the gel packs – even more so on the regular sales at Know Phrills or Basic Foods…
They fit better than the gel packs too and they’re bigger 🙂
You know how this sort of thing works. I don’t think the Puck gang would be big on veggies anyway. Probably just keep the bag for head injuries.
You don’t smell cheap vodka on them around here, thers is no such thing and the taxes on booze are going up to apy for sockboy’s vacations.
Around here you smell the Listerine and vanilla extract they drink off the shelf in Wal-mart without paying for it. They stopped carrying the litre bottles of vanilla for just that reason.
Lysol, Aqua Velva and vanilla extract, the Dollarama shooter.
I heard the really cheap ones drink glass cleaners. If they are lucky, ethanol-based and not isopropanol-based.
You’ve been spending too much time hanging around the bad side of town, dude.
‘Hanging around the bad side of town’- so, Phoebe’s house. Which is probably an oasis of (relative) calm in the area. Crow & Raccoon Security; not only have the bodies never been found, nobody has and ever will realise there are bodies to be found!
Efficient.
They could wedge the bag between his horns so he has both hands free 🙂
BRILLIANT!
That’s probably how Satan become Mayor of Hamilton. He stuck a stovepipe hat on his head, and he was proclaimed mayor by acclamation!
That IS how you do it around here.
Daphne’s shirt… “Pumps and a Bump”
…Sounds like the shirt you buy a pregnant girl around the start of her 2nd trimester who hasn’t accepted how her entire wardrobe is about to quickly begin migrating into storage.
You are not wrong. But it’s a late era MC Hammer tune.
Out of absolutely nowhere, I ended up associating the bag on Satan’s head with that Orson Welles audio recording, and now I’m thinking that if Puck ever got an animated version, it would be great if Maurice LaMarche voiced Satan (even if it wasn’t a Welles impersonation).
AI Orson Welles could be voice of Satan. Sure.
He sounds pleasent to work with.
You know…
Daphne and Puck have such a similar sense of perspective you’d think they actually were distantly related and not just stepmom and teenage criminal
Influence has been had.
Sounds like a fertile ground for various fan theories.
The poor devil can’t help being horny, so to speak. Heh-heh. (Runs off the stage before the rotten eggs and tomatoes hit him.) :p
You deserve a medal, not rotten eggs. Take a bow, good sir.
@EG, thanks! I can assure you I’m not a professional comedian. (Takes a bow.) 🙂
