Secret Sentai
Research for today’s comic came down to looking a lot of screenshots of All Creatures Great And Small with Peter Davison and Christopher Timothy (forever “Christophy Timother” in my house) rooting around inside cows. I got there, right?
I’m not going to lie. I knew today’s comic was distasteful when I drew it, but this is the dangerous, edgy outlaw turf Steeple is in. Upsetting pageantry. Invisible flutes. Weird bird “relations”.
I sure have to draw a lot of stairs this week. Indoor stairs, outdoor stairs. I’ve had to walk up and down a lot of stairs recently, I think this might be my new thing. Stair comics.
I think it’s reasonable to imagine that there is almost nothing that gets past Mrs Clovis.
At this point Maggie should be getting sponsorship from the BSMB (British Snood Marketing Board). Snood’s Corner.
I’m very worried about the state of the thermostat in panel 1. Clearly a roof leak has found its way into the ducting for the thermostat wiring. It’s a potential death trap.
If there was ever any doubt that Mrs Clovis takes pleasure in taunting Maggie, I think panel 3 dispels it.
Hopefully getting knocked spark out by Reverend Penrose’s clothesline will be a turning point for the ill-fated Secret Sentai.
