Looks like things are getting dangerous…however, if you think this is still the ‘old Scapula’, who would run away screaming, then you might be surprised at what happens next!

I like the added touch of the horror monsters all around the hall also looking threatening. Very nice!
Hm, blowing up the mess at Burning Man could be fun and profitable……. and would certainly meet this lot’s criteria for action and profit. That place makes a freaking mint in just drinks.
Or he could just torch half the city. I’ve felt like doing it a few times (and New York deserved it…..)
I’m going to refrain on comments about which cities need to be destroyed, lest some psychotic A-hole actually goes and does it. I don’t want to look like an accomplice (I’ll do me own crimes, thankyeverymuch)!
I think blowing up Burning Man could be written off as a ‘performance art piece’, depending on how you go about doing it.
Me says the gang put the monsters in front of the door to scare Scapula.
Now, when are you going to destroy those cities, Mr. Casserole?
That would be kind of funny if they rearranged the monsters just to spook Scapula. It’s like those household pranks where you rearrange a certain item or piece of furniture without another person realizing it, resulting in paranoid feelings about the place being haunted.
Hey, I said it was only kind of funny.
Gaslighting?
I never knew there was a term for that. I learn so much from the readers!
A performance art piece, hunh? Right up Hypnausea’s alley!
Knowing Burning Man-ers, they would just have double the turn out the next year.
Burning Man begins blowing itself up…the best performance I can imagine them having.
But that would mean someone stole their idea from Bombastar!
Oh, I can take a shot at it.
Methinks the Burning Man is going to be a tad hotter than usual this year …
Damned global warming! I can’t stand direct sunlight as it is, but now that we’re all gonna roast like chickens it’s just…ohhhhh, I get what you’re saying. Whoops.
Don’t mess with a guy after a break up
Hear hear…a rule which the world tends to ignore, anyway.
Now that you mention it, King Kong and the Wolf Man don’t look too happy to see Scap either.
I don’t know if that could be called King Kong; I kind of intended it to be any of a number of ‘guy-in-a-gorilla-suit’ apes from the old 30’s/40’s movies (the kind that would have been played by Crash Corrigan, Charles Gemora, or George Barrows…and no, I didn’t IMDB those names, I’m just a supreme monster dork).
OK, I’ll just mentally shorthand it to a Brooklyn Gorilla, then. 😉
Is that the Demon from Night of the Demon next to him?
Yes, indeedy! Night of the Demon, known to us Yanks as Curse of the Demon, is one of my favorite horror movies. Don’t eat it before dinner, or it will “rune” your appetite!
I don’t think the crew wants to tussle with a guy whose wrath was temporarily denied him.
Does a pissed-off grouch with a broken heart have the strength to take on a gang of ghoulish brawlers? That’s a helluva set-up if I’ve ever heard one!
So… Is the weird granny actually infatuated by Loony or is this just an annoying wackjob?
‘Weird granny’? No, no, Aunt September was in the last storyline!
If you mean Moonie’s older, awful roommate, then no, she hates Scapula (and possibly all men) with the fiery heat of a thousand suns.
Hee! Nice Ray ‘Crash’ Corrigan ref. By the time the Burning Man participants figure out that Scap & Co. aren’t just other cosplayers they’re going to be in a heepa trouble. I can just see Scap on top of the wicker ‘Burning Man’ with Moonie under one arm shouting “Top of the world, ma!”
Hey, ten points for the White Heat reference! The more obvious guess would be Throgor doing the same stunt, a la King Kong, but nearly any classic film reference gets my respect.
What is the figure to the far right? A Jersey Devil, maybe?
The devilish-looking figure is from the aforementioned film, Night of the Demon, an extremely well-made film on the topic of paganism, man’s belief in the supernatural, and how much of what we imagine is in fact reality.
…and the monster is really f__king cool!
Never mess with a villain who has been denied his booty call! (no… not the footwear!)
Damn right…and don’t take his shoes, either!
I couldn’t help but notice Toxsick seems to have a half smirk going on. Like ‘Hey, Edgar looks like his night was crap, maybe we’ll actually get something done now!’.
Or ‘Edgar looks pissed. About time someone else had women problems like I have…..’
Maybe he’s anticipating the beating they plan on giving Scap…or maybe he’s just planning on getting out of there and hitting the first strip club he sees!
There’s more than one burning man at the moment.
…and more to come!
