  1. Their first album, Time and Tile Wait for No Man, served as the soundtrack for the world's longest and bloodiest "Aussie rules" Mahjong tournament. It reached a mind-boggling #5 on the charts. Since then, the group has specialized in critically-acclaimed, if commercially less successful, soundtracks for arthouse films, such as E. Elias Merhige's Begotten 2: Beget Harder.

    Nudnik of the North is a world music band that combines klezmer with Inuit throat-singing.


  2. I suspect the tweets are referring to Susan's claim that her mother would not only be aware (somehow) she had a long-lost daughter, but would "raise hell" to find her. Neither are necessarily true. In fact, given the circumstances leading to her parents' divorce, it's likely that Ms. Pompoms either has never even considered she may have a stepdaughter (or stepson).1 Given her bitterness towards her ex-husband, even if the possibility has occurred to her, she may not wish to find out, because apart from the kid not being hers as such, she may not want to have in her life someone who reminds her of him.

     

    1Edward's investigations have pretty much ruled out either her having birthed a second daughter or Susan being adopted. To the best of my recall, we haven't yet seen Edward proven wrong about matters of fact. (Matters of belief, such as his attitude to Tedd's genderfluidity, are another matter.)

     


  3. I think there may be an overarching plot inconsistency with Edward getting so involved in order to  protect Elliot here.

    When Edward got kicked upstairs, as punishment for being so personally attached to local paranormal matters that he broke protocol by zapping someone who'd already surrendered, this is what Dan had to say in the commentary:

    Quote

    Since the beginning of the comic, when the main characters have gotten into top secret trouble and needed someone to make it all better, Mr. Verres was there to make it happen. The position he's held has allowed him to manipulate the cover ups to best benefit those directly involved.

    This page leaves him with some government power, but he's no longer the person who will be cleaning up after the main characters' messes. That will fall to someone else who just might not be as accommodating and caring as Mr. Verres has been...

    Yet here we have Edward planning to manufacture a Cheerleadra sighting in order to protect Elliot, to whom he has a personal attachment because Elliot is his son's lifelong best friend. Doesn't that contradict Dan's "from now on, the gang will have to do without Edward's help" warning? Or am I reading all of this wrong?


  4. Glad you all enjoyed it! ^_^

    As for showing it to Dan... I know his attitude to seeing fanart is "Yes please, send it along" whereas his position on fanfic is "You can write it but I don't want to see it, for legal reasons." What's he said regarding slays?
