    That he is the alternate GQP front runner, though lagging behind the Mangled Mango Manatee, says a lot of bad things about the state of the US. (Apologies to actual manatees. You've done nothing wrong, except maybe you, Booger*. Frolic on.) * Semi-obscure literary reference - please respond if you know it.
  4. Comic for Monday, May 29, 2023

    Comic for Monday, May 29, 2023 It's a very exciting comic! Tedd explains again how hair grows while it is transformed. In the last panel, we again see indoor fog. Humidity apparently works different in EGS than in our universe. I am curious what kind of custom equipment requires sewing.This would make sense if there were an optical component involved. I wonder if he's thinking, "Clothes for after being transformed."

    Pearls Before Swine, Thursday December 16, 2021 I could more easily see just dialog and no cartoon, the drawings look like they are shipped in from an overseas sweat shop. Kind of clever, maybe 4 stars out of five.

    It would be an interesting new direction for the comic.

    A method of madness? "Don't split the party", although she managed to split both parties, so maybe . . . Rich and company can probably handle four, although Mirabel's survival is TBD. I'm guessing that Nanase's character is not going to handle four pursuers; can she continue to outrun them? Is the town sufficient refuge? Is she perhaps sacrificing herself? (There are several reasons she might.) If RIch and company deal with their four, they can probably deal with the last four later.

    I had forgotten Metamorphosis Alpha. I consider that a good thing, thanks a hell of a lot for reminding me. per the Inspiration section of the article, the "the original inspiration for the game was Brian Aldiss's science fiction novel Non-Stop (also known as Starship, 1958)." I had the Starship edition of his book, read it several time; it isn't that similar. There are only two featured mutations; the humans live rapidly, and the rats are smart and organized. The setting is more similar to Heinlein's Orphans of the Sky , which has more of a hodgepodge of mutations. (I've read a lot of Heinlein. IMO, this is one of his crappier books.) In both the tech of the inhabitants is low; neither are aware that they are on a spaceship until the end. You will be pleased to know that the original author, James M. Ward, owns the right to the game, and it is not only still available, but there is a fourth edition! (Silly me, I thought one was too many.) A PDF of the original is available from DriveThurRPG, for not much more than the cost of the original game. The game has it's own (fan?) Website, https://www.metamorphosisalpha.com. It is credited as the first sci fi RPG; that may be true, it does predate Traveller, at least in terms of publishing. Given how detailed Traveller's setting is even early on, I suspect it may have been played earlier. Metamorphosis Alpha is the forerunner to Gamma World. Ward shares credit for Gamma World with Gary Jaquet. There is a D&D module, Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, based on Metamorphosis Alpha. My contribution will be Metamorphosis Alpo, Expedition to Sirius.
  12. NP Comic for Thursday, May 25, 2023 Sense this makes not. Rogue or whatever, you should be benefiting the party, or perhaps if you are evil, benefiting yourself. This just seems chaotic stupid. Hence the "WHAT." from three other players. . . . Maybe she has a plan? I don't see it.

    Evidenced by Tedd using his resources to transform Will and Gilly into a human form (not sure I got their names correct). I was under the impression that these were two different sets of Uryoum's from two separate universes (disregarding the 'other side of the coin' issue). But your point that they are the same Uryoums would explain some other outliers; 'aren't exactly space aliens', trying to take over the magic library. Has anyone else thought it odd that Lavender is so much larger than some of the Uryoums we've seen. Virginia was bigger than the early ones. Are they that variable, or are they hybrids?

    Comic for Friday, May 26, 2023 Tedd needs a haircut, and is struck with debilitating indecision. Yep, that is totally in character for Tedd, can't make up his mind about a style issue. This comic is making perfect sense. Elliot refers to a previous haircut of Tedd's as 'cute', providing fuel for the ships. It is a helpful comment that doesn't help at all. Tedd rants a bit in further indecision. Susan explains it all and Tedd blames her explanation for his previous overall response. Yep, making perfect sense. Dan explains below that we will argue about why Tedd doesn't magic up his hair, and assures us he will beat that to death in the next comic. This has to be a political parody' only way it makes sense.

    Gramma's World was just a bit too silly. Well, maybe a lot too silly. Kitchen sink silly. But yes, Mirabel would have laser eyes. Mirabel, the Doom Chicken. "You want fries with that? <Cackle, Cackle>"
  18. Comic for Wednesday, May 24, 2023 This is a long exposition comic. I guess it's setting something up? It's so drawn out that Grace and Ellen turn into mere shadows of themselves in the last panel. That's some intense exposition!.

    I recall a high school teacher that had a pair of Ds, and other charming features. She was smart, taught well, but also very distracting. The class was almost all males, one girl, who I later found out was a lesbian. Sigh. She (the teacher) made a lot of sense, but it was not a class about politics.

    If they were playing Fallout, it would be a very different game. Mirabel might be a ten foot tall raptor chicken (~3 meters tall, Euro guys). Hmm . . .
