Christopher Sly

This week's comic is up, and we didn't even have to change our release schedule to make it look like we were on time. We just fucking were. You could thank us later, or now. Whenever. Just make checks payable to Nick Powell. If sending drugs, please be advised that we don't really care for pills or meth. Anything else'll be just fine.

Quick! Go read the comic.

Now that that's been taken care of, we can discuss the various elements of Christopher Sly's psychotic break down. At first reading, he seems the innocent victim of young pranksters, but closer analysis reveals the symbolic nature of his three tormentors.

Denizen, of course, represents the effects of drug abuse on man's fragile brain tissues, while Friend epitomizes the fear and paranoia induced by the mainstream media. I'm not sure what Jeremy is. The desires of the id? fear of mortality? sexual frustration? perhaps an abusive father figure of sorts?

The point is, you should smoke all the drugs you can get your hands on, then watch a shit ton of telivised news propaganda. And when you're all boiling with rage, go out and kill some Cambodians. You'll be a hero.
