Ah, some nice Dave-Sim-inspired lettering. Big and effective and built right into the art! This is the kind of thing I would do all day, if someone would pay me. Seriously. I’m here. I live and love to letter. This isn’t a creepy come-on. Write me.
So the final joke is here: it’s dull in Quitoclam (a familiar thread to these stories, you might have noticed?) and for most folks, you have to make your own fun. Maybe you try and rob a place that doesn’t carry cash, or get lit and hassle a mall employee, or try to make forced moves on a juvenile in a dark corner of a parking lot. Fun fun fun! Hey, I didn’t say this was War and Peace. Bite me. Then write me.
Panel 3, hm, that’s bad art. Panel 4 too. It’s funny, when I remember rushing the art as I drew it, I see it here as still rushed, only preserved in ink and apparently online as well. Oh and hey, what’s with all the background zig-zags? Looks like all of this is taking place within the mouth of some big fish. OH SNAP I JUST GAVE THE SURPRISE ENDING AWAY… right.
Okay, that’s the end of that. Coming next time: the start of the fourth short story to Tales Of October #1, titled “Welcome To The City (Reprise)”. Starring Pargimus again! We’ll get to see just how far he’s come since leaving the institution. See you in five days!
