As if we needed more conformation about the laws of physics being skewed here, but Von Mudgett’s Mouth extends outside of his face. He is quite clearly Part Predator, Only with Spine ripping replaced with Extended Narrative.
I’m still holding out for bear-riding flamingos. (Check the forum for more)
Now I keep picturing Aric taking Pericles’ pants while van Mudgett is telling his tragic tale. Also, Aric’s face in the first panel reminds me of Beaker from The Muppet Show. That is all.
THIS IS AWESOME!!!! :D i cant wait. Lemmo is the coolest and a man after my own heart or vice versa. and i cant wait to see his hot soup powers. he probably materializes a bowl of ramen, cooked to absolute divine perfection. accidentally, of course.
his ABSOLUTE NEED to explain himself is what has immortalized him… i guess :3
This is so way cool, i love Lemmo and Aric! :D i jsut hate how i come off as a fangirl o_O
If Pericles offers them their lives based off the ability to answer riddles; I think it would be appropriate if Lemmo or Aric whisper to themselves, ‘What have I got in my pocket’ and Pericles misinterpret it as a riddle. He’ll get it wrong, and our heroes can escape!
I think Aric should hit lemmo in the middle of the rant from periciles just to break the tension, and be like: “ok, so it still works” Just to show that he really isn’t paying attention to perciles.
I can just picture Aric walking away while Pericles is telling the story. Pericles tells a vivid tale, invoking a flashback, and when he finishes Lemmo is asleep and Aric is gone.
Doesn’t the wallpaper give away something about how they’re going to escape from Pericles? (People always escape if the evil guy starts making a speech.) I mean, since Lemmo’s holding the shovel, it’s obviously either before the shovel beam was created (which is impossible because the bugs come after the shovel beam) or after it was destroyed. So my guess is that they escape on the bugs.
Sorry if I’m getting too complicated here. Having to guess what ‘it’ was taught me to pay attention to every tiny little detail in this comic!

The mark of a true looney, the need to explain
April 19th, 2010 at 12:57 am
is, is the need to explain.
April 19th, 2010 at 1:11 am
Lemmoooooooooooooo! A man after my own heart! Poor Pericles, though. All he wants is a little drama.
I wonder if Aric will ever see his pants again.

“And be less boring!” Laughed so hard i woke my roommate up, he was mad til he read this.

Is this the first time we’ve gotten a serious explanation in this comic?
I think it might be.
April 19th, 2010 at 5:58 am
flashback? I’m going to predict one.
April 19th, 2010 at 6:49 am
Lol. I just have to laugh at how the villain needs to explain how he did/does what he did/does.
April 19th, 2010 at 8:51 am
/grabs some popcorn and settles down for a story
April 19th, 2010 at 9:25 am
I’m predicting he’s going to get beaten down just after he starts his explanation. :D
April 19th, 2010 at 10:43 am
well a villain would be nothing without the proper monologue. this is just an all around great and interesting comic
April 19th, 2010 at 11:40 am
Aric should steal Pericles pants for being so annoying.
April 19th, 2010 at 11:51 am
“Ahem, as I was saying. A tale of ultimate trage–” SNIP!
What? Isn’t that what happened last time we were about to get some important info?

I was feeling silly last night. I love drawing Muppet Aric.
April 19th, 2010 at 1:01 pm
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I am just facinated by the gleam on that shovel. So….very….shiney….

i bet that we wont even get an explanation, instead the cookie palace will fall to pieces before pericles gets to anything good
April 19th, 2010 at 9:45 pm
YEH! Me no like boring….
April 19th, 2010 at 10:26 pm
Does anybody else feel worse for Pericles than for Lemmo?
April 20th, 2010 at 1:23 am
I’m going to start saying “Be less boring” as soon as people start talking to me. I feel my promotion prospects plummeting as we speak!.
April 20th, 2010 at 11:00 am
I personally adore Arics >:| expression in panel two. That wonderful “Shut up, don’t tell him to kill us!” face.

Blah. Testing to make sure I didn’t break my avatar. I apologize for the double post.
April 20th, 2010 at 12:46 pm
awesome wallpaper! Totally worth all the time guessing ;-)
April 20th, 2010 at 2:14 pm
Hee. Lemmo’s all ready for storytime.
April 20th, 2010 at 3:18 pm
Maybe Aric’s pants will turn into something…..Like a green pair of pants?
April 20th, 2010 at 9:34 pm

Just to show that he really isn’t paying attention to perciles.

@Gimp-the-swimmer — That’s a really funny idea. I definitely laughed when I read your comment.

Hi Bob! *waves* Sorry, your name amuses me.
I can just picture Aric walking away while Pericles is telling the story. Pericles tells a vivid tale, invoking a flashback, and when he finishes Lemmo is asleep and Aric is gone.

April 21st, 2010 at 6:01 pm
no! thats exactly what Lemmo said about the wallpaper! its just a pretty picture, it has no bearing on the story
April 22nd, 2010 at 12:47 pm
@e_is_for_eric, thatkyou. its a typical aric move, and my little sister thought it wouldbe funny. :)
