Another excellent Downer and P&A. I quite agree that the sky is indeed exceedingly dull. I also greatly appreciated the phantom's article, and I think we should put some lobbyists in Gondor to persuade Aragorn into hobbit population control via Barrow-Wights.

That may have been my favourite Downer yet!

Yes, I think so too! I'm getting rather hungry for hobbits!

And about that king, Aragorn I think that we should eat him too! Along with that dreadful Tom Bombadillo!

A really funny way of population control, let loose a bit of Hell! Now if I took that seriously I may end up going to our Congress and tell them the best way to keep overpopulation is to release orcs.

Wait, Alien is an explosives expert? I guess you learn something new every day.

Yes he is. Well, sort of. His blowy-up knowledge was first mentioned HERE. There are a lot of explosions in this volume. I may tone it down in Volume 3... Or not.

With the help of the phantom, this newspaper was much easier to throw together.



And, like a bowl of custard left in the oven for too long, the plot thickens and begins to smell rather bad.


Comic Archive

If you've any questions about what on earth is going on in P&A, it may help to go back over the previous comics. I like to plant little things that pay of AGES later. Keep your eyes open all the time.

I've not had any submissions for the P&A competition yet... Is anyone interested?

Or not? That kinda scares me! I hope Alien doesn't end up blowing something important up!

Someone who's received over 10 PMs from me could easily not be awesome, but just plain pesky! I'm afraid I tend to write "forum business messages" more often than personal communication these days, and those usually go to annoying posters. Present company, as always, excepted - of course!
