Whoa, I have certainly missed a bunch! Looks like this will be fun with catching up!

Thumbs up

With just five weeks before I take a break, danger is really hotting up on the Downs!

Special thanks to Aganzir for the second story.



With Lommy off fighting in the battle, Death appeares, but he needs help. Alien's help?



Look out for the Comic Archive!

We're just two weeks away from the climactic conclusion to Volume 2! It's exciting, it's weird and has at least one more explosion. That can't be bad. Or can it?
Don't forget, after Volume 2 ends we'll have a three-part special adventure for that crime fighting duo Phanston and Ailsbry, followed by some special challenge comics from Oddwen, TheGreatElvenWarrior and Aganzir (any one else want to sign up for that?) and THEN we'll have the prologue to volume three. The week after that, it'll be time to batten down the hatches, take a strong drink and get ready for the most insane adventures The Phantom and Alien have seen yet!

Or something...

Aha! I knew that there would be pictures! Though I didn't know that the whole honey experiment was why Lommy went.

Oh, but that's an old pic.

Hookbill and Aganzir, you're both crazy.

Quite As if we haven't known that already anyway...

Hey, but Hookbill, I see you became as impulsive with the articles again

And btw, who is Grurt Molatchol? That sounds like Fungoltch & Schmurt's father. (What, they have a common father? *gasp* Actually, well, why not. And who knows what's under that hood.)

It's just a name I made up off the top of my head. But, why not? Fungotch and Schmurt need parental guidance.
Which reminds me, we've just finished an episode where ALIEN'S FATHER is revealed. And it just gets weirder from there. Considering who his mother is...

Wow! Cool! Well, I did not like his mother that much, but perhaps the father is going to be far cooler!

Oh, and Hookbill, I've been planning to tell you that for some time already, but somehow never managed to do so - I wonder if that's a sign of something. A few times, I've been "replaying" Phantom&Alien dialogues from the videos with my brother when we were walking somewhere, or such (Lommy had actually witnessed one, so that's what reminded me of telling you). Or, we have been "singing" the background music to Fungoltch&Schmurt video.

"Is it just me... or are adverts getting... weirder..." "How did you get a TV?"

(Okay, and now we had to re-watch it. Twice. )

Oh, and btw, we were wondering which language did you use when recording the Fungoltch&Schmurt video (as it obviously isn't English). We came to these conclusions: Obviously, it's some language recorded backwards. At one point, I came up with a theory that perhaps it's actually this Fungoltish language (the one used in the comics), but just played backwards. To that, my brother reacted, saying that possibly it's Fungoltish that has been recorded backwards and then played backwards.

Moldutch? Gimifril!!! ( <= Yea, I want a t-shirt saying that! Wow, now that would be cool!)
