Blindfold on!
The one thing I will say in my defence is that this could have been a lot worse, and having put various visual baffles in the way “late in the process,” I can say that with some certainty.
STEEPLE – A Scary Go Round Comic
by John Allison
That’s some Austin Powers level strategically placed objects.
Thank you for the baffles.
Release the Toby cut!
“Blindfold On” might be a cautionary instruction to readers.
We greatly appreciate your judgement in a time of illness. Even now I am trying to convince myself that Brian’s skull staff is Toby, but I know in my heart this is not the case.
A disappointed Toby is only going to have a negative affect on one’s health.
I’m shocked, Billie! How could you sully the Satanic ritual with deceit?
Who’s to say that Deb from the Medical Centre isn’t freaky? I mean, even Satanists need jobs!
If nothing else, we know she has memorable knees!
And a splendid Panda head!
The array of masks available in Tredgreyn is more cosmopolitan than in Summerisle.
She IS wearing a pentagram but in Tredgreyn, being a Satanist isn’t necessarily “freaky” in the first place. In fact, I think it’s supposed to be more commonplace than Christianity.
I was using “freaky” in the “loves sex drugs and rock and roll” aspect, not to imply she was among a minority.
Oh no… Brian look so betrayed and angry. Billie really hurt him! Maybe if she had just asked, who know… Al least, it’s nice to know everyone in the church love Brian and want him to be safe.
So just how did Deb’s knees burn an indelible mark into Brian’s recollection? Or was it Sir Toby who remembered?
If you’re a woman and you’ve bared an inch of skin around Brian, he’ll remember.
Was Toby knighted or just benighted?
This is exactly like Christmas.
Thank goodness the accent in “flounce” is on the U.
A flounce in time saves your mind!
AIEEE! Balrog!
As a resident of the US, I don’t quite understand, but I have to say your NHS still seems easier to navigate and more likely to produce positive health outcomes.
This is just what socialised healthcare is like, ask any Republican.
I am convinced that the short individual in the elephant’s head is Tom Cruise from Eyes Wide Shut. (I recognize him by his knees.)
If that’s the case than I hope the Tredregyn COS has some kind of elaborate Eyes Wide Shut-style LARP deception to discourage Tom Cruise from ever crashing their orgies again.
Well flounce my Toby!
Brian passes his Intelligence check with flying colors.
And Perception! What a lad! (and how 5E of me)
Is INADVENTENTLY a word? If it isn’t, it ought to be.
Just tell me there’s a typo, don’t encode it in snark!
Inadventently (adv): To perform an action in a manner reminiscent of accidentally knocking over an Advent calendar
“InadVENTent” seems consistent with “interVENTion,” anyway.
I thought it was “In the manner of one who is in the process of adding vents to something”
That’s “inaddventently”. Totally different spelling.
I’m quite surprised to hear that Brian has ever darkened the doors of a medical centre, tbh.
I don’t think that’s where he recognizes Deb’s knees from.
maybe it’s a source for the “big bag of drugs”
This is a MASTERCLASS is comic positioning. To think this was achieved in midst of the plague should go down in the annals of artist history forever.
Delighted to find an answer to the question I didn’t know I had, “what’s the opposite of a snoopy?”.
Wait, did Billie deceive the other participants too? Because I’m not sure how this doesn’t qualify as an intervention. Except that you’re not supposed to just allow the interventee to simply FLOUNCE away unimpeded.
ADDENDUM:
Unless the other “participants” are just statues to set the mood OSLT. That belatedly occurred to me.
It’s not easy to pull off a good flounce with one’s Toby out! Also I need to ask: is “Toby” a phallic term I’ve never heard of, or is it a John Allisonism?
Or is it Cornish?
Shouldn’t the church be celebrating Hexxennacht for reals to begin with? Per Google, Hexxennacht (aka Walpurgis Night) is a genuine real-world holiday. It’s on April 30, but perhaps in Tredgreyn’s Church of Satan, every random day is Hexxennacht. OSLT.
I wønder whether Brian is a big fan of Machinehead or øf the Swedish* Chef frøm the Muppet Shøw.
(Yes, I knøw the ø is Danish/Norwegian and nøt Swedish but I døn’t think The Swedish Chef døes)
