CLOTTED CRIME pt 2 starts Monday

Great colors, great expressions and beautiful shoes! I just hope the story will reveals why they use vegetables as weapons. Will we see Billie madly in love? GOOD!!!
What are these vegetables they are holding except of course the ax of Penrose.
Carrot, ?,?
Carrot, banana, courgette?
I read them as carrot-derringer, banana-revolver, cucumber-shotgun, but there’s a lot of room for interpretation there.
I’m leaning toward carrot, banana, courgette (zucchini), but cucumber seems plausible.
Courgette seems very possible as well. I think I saw it as a cucumber mainly because it has some speckles that sort of look like the “warts” on a cucumber, and it does not seem to have the slight taper I would associate with a Courgette/Zucchini (though it’s hard to tell for sure, as one end is partly obscured).
Is the axe certified organic?
Damn! This is one one wicked good cover!
Note flavinoid in the upper left
I have upgraded to your $3 cult. Do I have to bring my own vegetables this time?
You’ll be provided with some celery if you turn up empty-handed. Thanks Damon!
Realising that I’ve now internalised the Allison Mon-Wed-Fri comics rhythm to such a degree that I feel ever so slightly bereft when there’s not a Friday comic, even though there actually was one more comic than usual that week. The brain is a funny thing, huh.
Also, love that you’re commissioning these covers. Are they in the TPB? (Got the shipping notification for Vol. 2 last week, hopefully it’s right around the corner)
If space allows, they’ll go in!
First thing I ‘heard’ when I saw this was the intro theme for “Cowboy Bebop”!
Really great work!
I think it’s time to save this town
Get everybody and their veggies together
Ok, three, two, one let’s jam
Jam is made from fruit, not vegetables!
Ginger jam? Rhubarb jam? Carrot jam?
Blasphemous the lot.
Now you’ve got ME doing it…
The CMS seems to be adding plus-signs (+) to some of our display names. See my previous comment on this page, as well as Ross Webster’s.
I manually removed them from mine this time, but you may want to check yours before you post.
I noticed that on the previous page, but it’s ultimately not a big deal to me.
Or you could always just go all cave-dweller and jam all the words in your name together without spaces.
I would NEVER do such a thing!
Ook!
Orangutans dwell in libraries, not caves.
This cover is the fanservice we’ve wanted but been too afraid to ask for: more great shoes! Vivid vegetables! Matching jackets!
Clearly Jorge Monlongo is a fan of Jack Davis.
Maggie Warren, you put down that cucumber right now. Lurid Week was weeks ago!
