In what volume did Alien's mother appear?
Anyway, if that woman in pink is Alien's mother, how come Alien is as he is?

She appeared in Volume One Episode Sixty One. As Phantom points out, this just raises further questions. Anyway, here's your Friday P&A.

That can't be me... I know bread is real..... as are the colours red, blue and green. The colour yellow is a mystical experience shared by everyone.... and beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy...

If you like facts and NEWS, then The Downer probably isn't for you...
In case anyone needs a recap, here's the story so far of The Phantom and Alien; The Phantom was fired from his job and so decided to try and fake his own death. Before he got a chance to he was taken in by The Hoody Cloaky Group. They had an ulterior motive for taking him in as it turned out they wanted to kill him. Meanwhile, Lalwende forced Alien to apologize to PC Eomer for messing up his office. When they got to his house, it had been blown up. Lal decided that there is probably a massive conspiracy going on and enlists Alien's help for his special knowledge of explosives. The trail leads them to Suspicious Bob's oats, but the boss, Mr Namshif, is always hidden behind a wall. When they are attacked in their own office, they discover that some people with hoody cloaky things don't want them investigating the oat factory. Alien goes to visit The Phantom and follows him to The Hoody Colaky Group's hideout, which he promptly destroys. The group is desperate for a new location and it falls on The Phantom to open up his house to them. Meanwhile, Alien and Lal discover that Mr Namshif is not the rightful owner of Bob's Oats and so go to find his house. On the way, they see an explosion. Purple Pete, one of the Hoody Cloakies, eats a whole jar of Alien's Exploding Beans, supposedly killing them all. The Phantom was outside (getting wine) at the time. There was one survivor; THE GREAT FISH MAN. Reporting the explosion to the Police, The Phantom found himself being arrested, but then let out by Mr Gross, his old boss. Alien and Lalwende continue their investigation into the strange Mr Namshif... For a fuller and funnier recap, do look at the COMIC ARCHIVE. It did take me a long time to make, and I've redesigned some of it.

And should it not be mentally or physically healthy I'm sure I could give it a good... home.
Before reading this issue I had no idea ironing boards were so headstrong! Granted I disagree with the "down with ironing boards" movement and feel that it was justified in taking those lives, but ruining that sacrifice is disgraceful! I truly feel for you and your loss of the loss of your sister, Thinlo, and Greenie of course.

Hey, Phantom and Alien fans; do you want to see an exclusive preview of VOLUME 3: THE LEGEND OF THE GOLDEN BUS TICKET?
Well, here it is! IT'S AMAZING, EXCITING, AND SICKENING! Yeah. Basically, I left one of my empty templates on my desk and a sibling got to it. That'll teach me.

To show how on top of things I am, I will say I just noticed the 'story' on me in Week # 515. Come on! Who hasn't dreamt of tasting concrete anyway?

Alien and Lal continue their investigation. It seems to be going around in circles.
READ THE COMIC ARCHIVE IF IT MAKES NO SENSE! See you on Monday.

I think that the place is called the Happy, Fluffy Bunny Trail. This one made me laugh so hard!

This week's downer could be more costly than usual...

Hanging Morthoron by his own entrails seems a bit harsh. Death by egging, perhaps (the hard-boiled ones)?

Good point. I suppose Old Bombadil will just have to sing and prance about to put you in your place.

Your second Phantom and Alien is here! This time, Lal and Alien meet a strange creature in the sewers. It's disgusting.

(And the last one was great too. By the way, I forgot to comment: Phantom looks cute on the first two - his eyes are in a weird place.) Well, like I said, fantastic but with the risk of sounding repetitive... I can't wait for another one!!!

Heehee... If I didn't like my current location so much, I'd consider changing it into "in the sewers".
PS. I'm cute.

I'm so excited to see that this is still going on! You're so brilliant Hookbill!!! I have to go back and see what's been happening, cause they're not making much sense to me right now, haha.

My face is too big? Well, heck, I could've told you that. But, heavens, I never thought it could provoke a bloodbath...!
Wait... then again, there were the brawls with my brothers... and local bullies... and the clawmarks I left... Never mind.

And, for those of you still reading this nonsense, here is the next episode of The Phantom and Alien. Episode titles sometimes give away spoilers. Be warned.
To catch up on the story, read the archive!

Woop! It's time for some news, you dead people of the Downs.
The adventure continues as Lal, Lommy and Alien reach swamp city! If it's not making sense, try reading back in the archive! So, is this the last of the prophesies?
