It will be addressed, but not in flashback, I'm afraid. Just so you know, though, that particular part of his back story will get more complex before it gets simpler... um...

I did notice, however, that a lot of Phantom's history and reasons for being how he is is explained while NOTHING is explained about Alien. This is probably for the best. We don't want to encourage anyone now, do we?

That's because unbeknownst to the general Downs population, Alien is actually a reflection of you, Hookbill.

Hi all!
I've just visited this forum. Happy to get acquainted with you. Thanks.

Wow. Being quoted by a spammer, that must mean that it was either a really bad post, or I am a really bad poster. Or both!

Knives and forks will never replace pie fights.

Flinging pies into someone else's face really is the only way for a gentleman to eat them. It's right there in the big book of etiquette.
You also have to roll around in custard afterwards. It's polite.

By the way, P&A fans, the Soap Pope's name is actually going to be revealed in an upcoming episode. Even though he's dead... Yes...

No doubt Miss Collins just let her drown in all of that Notes juice that seems to be filling up the place! That stuff is probably responsible for the deaths of hundreds of former employees.

The Downer, always reporting the facts straight to your face. Are they true facts? You decide!

Now Alien and Formy face some Soapy wrath!

Oh dear! You have to expect that sort of thing if you hand around Alien for too long.

Don't forget that if you've lost track of The Phantom and Alien in these confusing and silly stories I'm weaving around, you can look back though the...

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING

It's all about to reach a pivotal point in the story. Things are heading towards the firs big climax of this series and there will be more to come. So... Keep on the look out for more Phailian!

There goes the Old Woman of the Sea look! What look could be next in the exclusive Alien fashion line I wonder?

And Squatter's been bin stealing? Really! Young criminals these days, they have no shame! But this does explain the disappearance of the rubbish bin at work today, I was beginning to think Alien had tried to add it to his personal collection again - it's a very valuable specimen after all.

So as you can see, your newspaper (aside from being 100% TRUTH!) is an irreplaceable part of the Barrow-Downs. Where would we be without it? Probably ignorant about the virtues of the great and holy rubbish bin and definitely very bored. Just thought I'd thank you for all your industrious reporting, we love it!
