Who said Dan dropped everyone into the sewers in a game?

I have long suspected that Greg and Vladia formed some sort of relationship. My feeling is that Hedge and Guineas have unusual abilities and need to be able to control them in the mundane world. Sensei Greg is accustomed to coaching people with unusual abilities. He is aware of the spooky stuff that is supposed to be kept hidden. He is Grace's martial arts teacher and has met Agent Veres on the job. If the undisclosed location where Grace's family was relocated following Damien's death is reasonably near Moperville, Edward Veres may have hired Greg to help the Nestlings adapt. If Vladia is serious about not transforming back into her monstrous form, then she wouldn't be using Greg's services as a teacher. (A more conventional 'Self-Defense' class would probably appeal to her.) But he would still be one of the few non-governmental types with whom she would have a chance to interact regularly. I lost a bet because after mentioning Greg's date on New Year's Eve, the comic never returned to that subject. There has been no conformation or contradiction. We know NOTHING about Greg's social life now that we didn't before the days of Squirrel Profit.

Fish Augmentations? Is that anything like Hamburger Helper? Stressed Parent: "I only have twenty minutes until dinner and a pound of day old mackerel to feed my family! What will I do?" TV Voice: "With Augmented Fish™, twenty minutes and bucket of bait is all you need to make your family think you're the Bouila-BEST!"

There is a trait that transcends race, religion, language, nationality, and politics. A lot of people want permission to hate and kill. And there are always manipulators ready to use those people to do the dirty work. What do you want a patsy to do for you? Shoot up a nightclub? Bomb an abortion clinic? Release anthrax on the subway? Vandalize all the Jewish homes and businesses in Berlin? Just give the "OK to Hate" message to enough people who want to hear it, and they will destroy any target of your choice.

Your universe is getting in my reality!

Doesn't the inclusion of bacon invalidate the objectiveness of any taste test?

That might be a little bit too convenient of a coincidence. But not impossible... Blaike may not have defended the travelers successfully, but that does not necessarily mean his sacrifice was in vain. Do monsters still rampage along that road? Perhaps his tragic tale inspired others to say "no more" and make that territory safe for all travelers.

A complicating matter in this is that many members of the House of Representatives are from "safe" districts. That is, their party's nominee will almost certainly win the general election. Therefore, they only risk losing their seat by losing in the primary. And as bad as voter turn out can be for the general elections in the USA, primaries are even worse. So only highly motivated voters show up. So if, for example, a Republican in a "safe" district was seen crossing the party line and voting for an Obama proposal, the political machine would be quick to support a true believer against the incumbent in the primary.

Nearly everyone at some time has gotten a job, or some other good deal, because a friend or relative put in a good word for them. If it makes you feel better, keep these things in mind. 1. If there was a candidate for the position who was significantly better qualified than you, then no reasonable employer would have bypassed them in your favor. If the boss does pass over the best candidates for ones he thinks will be more loyal, then you may want to take a closer look at the business and the way the boss runs it. 2. There may have been other candidates with similar qualifications as yours. What tips the scales slightly for or against a candidate can be almost anything. One of my old bosses told me I was hired because I was the only man to show up to the job interview wearing a tie that day. "My sister knows this guy" seems no worse than "I like what he wore". 3. Opening the door for you may have been a gift. But what happens once you are inside is up to you. If you honestly believe that you were held to a lower standard to get the job, then you must hold yourself to a higher standard to keep the job. Don't give the critics (or yourself) an opportunity to say "I Told You So!" Nepotism can be a bad business practice. But giving a relative a chance is usually no more risky for the business than giving a random applicant a similar chance. The real test is down the road. If you are retained after failure or if you are promoted while only showing mediocre results, that is Nepotism of the worst kind. But if you are successful, thank the people who gave you a chance, then go on and earn everything you get all the way to the top. Finally, someday you may have the opportunity to give someone else a similar chance. Go ahead, as long as you hold them to the same standards you expect of everyone else and are prepared to let them go if they don't work out.

They are not pointing the cannon at you? I take it you are not the fortunate son.

Awww... Baby Adrian barely looks like a pompous (but well intentioned) jerk at all. And they escaped the Lion Bear. Now I want to know what happened to the beast? Did it produce offspring that hated each other and eventually settled in Detroit and Chicago?

Hypnosis is a heroic weapon. Doesn't anyone remember Mandrake the Magician?

Can we get color sketchbook entry of Grace in the second panel? Maybe in her Uryom/Shade Tail costume?

That made me think of Robin Leach. I don't know why.

Some one is painting me? Hold on, I'll get the big hat.
