So, the secret is out! The title of this volume DOES refer to something vaguely to do with the story. Yep, the King Bus is going to have its day and importance.
If you guess what it will be, I will PM you a treat.

See you on Monday when Morsul's hatred burns brighter!

Hmmm... two possibilities I can think of right now:
1. It's going to road-kill Philip so that Peter can inherit the hooded cloak;
2. It's going to road-kill EVERYONE (except Alien, of course) so that they become properly wraithed.

Phantom and Alien? Silly? No, never.


How about the King Bus is the ticket to the next, greater bus. That bus will bring Miss Collins back to life (through means only known to the Bus and Alien), Alien will be in on the plot. Unfortunately, since Alien was the one who killed Miss Collins to begin with (yes, that is the story that I am sticking to), he will find another, bloodier way of killing her again. When he's finished with that, she becomes another inhabitant of the Barrow-Downs. Afterwards, the Phantom gets to miss Collins, but by that time Alien is already there. So, mega battle time! That is when the BUS runs over the whole lot of them and kills them. Then it is off to the Barrow-Downs!

You people are being subjected to another early Downer... Because I'm ill. And have to wake up tomorrow morning.



Can The Phantom and Morsul work out their differences?

PHANTOM AND ALIEN
COMIC ARCHIVE THING


The one thing I love about writing P&A is the fact that there really are no heroes. It's just a chorus of villains all being inept and self serving.
I suppose it depends on how you count Alien. I'm not entirely sure he's familiar with either concept to be honest...

This is starting to sound vaguely like a TV show with a certain actor by the name of David Hasselhoff.....

My guess: Sir King Bus kills everyone and drives them to the Downs.

Plan A: Since it's called the Golden Bus Ticket, perhaps they are not able to get on the King Bus unless they find the golden ticket first. And this ticket is of course hidden in Alien's super cool tie. Or a Willy Wonka chocolate bar.

Plan B: The Golden Bus is discovered by Peter who is then threatened by the angry duo of Morsul and Death (who both want revenge on Philip), and is forced to run over his own father, thus becoming The Phantom.

Plan C: The King Bus is controlled by an evil pink kitten that wants to kill Alien for eating his BFF the Pheasant.


It's obvious which is most likely.

*facepalm* You know, in hindsight, it really does seem obvious...
