It looks like Scapula has assembled himself a new crew, but this is definitely not the same group dynamic as his old gang. It’s going to take a lot of quick thinking and sheer strength to keep this bunch of killers from doing him in…or will Scapula beat them to the kill?
Well, we wont know for a while, because next week is dedicated to another dangerous menace, one whose power makes him the most brutal terror of them all. Who is it? Find out soon!
Okay, it’s Dadaman.
I just love Scapula’s continuing comparison between his new gang and a “family”. Especially the dialogue in the last panel, that just cracks me up.
By the way, how come El Disgusto and Wooly Rhino are beating on those guys so effortlessly? I mean, I thought they took a bullet to the nads and another to the knee.
Eh, I guess this far into the comic is hardly the time to start complaining. I mean, we already have a two-headed crime lord, a clone army, and a rampaging robot brontosaurus controlled by an evil, nuclear/powered band puppet, so regenerating Miscreants seem like the least of our problems.
Great comic, man, keep it up!
Also, yaaaay, Dadaman’s coming back! I love that guy!
Sorry, that’s “hand puppet”, not “band puppet”.
“Family”? Uh oh…if Scap takes them out to a ranch and starts preaching about being Jesus and/or Satan and pigs and Helter Skelter…then that would be a pretty silly story.
The Miscreants ignoring their wounds is a mere case of ignoring the pain in favor of inflicting it on others. I’m sure some people have methods of temporarily wiping excruciating pain from their minds, and the Miscreants (who are pretty mindless to begin with) have resorted to ‘therapeutic beating’. Don’t try it at home!
You might be surprised to find that most injuries go numb slowly. Incidentally a nad-shot isn’t easily walked off.
I don’t know if Hypnausea is surprised by Scap’s sudden attitude change, or he’s seeing something we’re not able to after his time spent with those hippies..
I’ll be honest, I drew Hypnausea’s expression that way because it made me laugh (especially when you realize what a jump it is from the expression he had a moment ago). Maybe Scapula’s creepiness snapped him out of his drug-induced stupor?
Yay, Dadaman! Yeah, I wouldn’t expect to see Scap and Company for a while now, especially since they’ve got the highest guy in the van driving.
They’ll be making a lot of pit stops for snack foods and bathroom breaks. A LOT.
Yaay! Hypnausea’s back, kiddies! Did everyone remember to take their penicillin? And Dadaman, too? Aiden, you spoil us!
Don’t let Hypnausea spoil you! There’s not enough penicillin in the world to cure THAT!
Stranger in a Strange Land.
Hey, that’s catchy.
Hee! Homo and Hypnau in the same room (or van)? Talk about your oil n’ water. Scap better keep his mean on, otherwise, between Jemmy and The Gruesome Threesome, he’s gonna be the filling in a package of dollar store hot dogs.
It’s a good thing Hypnausea’s in the driver’s seat; if he was in the back with the Homophobe it would turn into one of those ‘sibling rivalries’ that plagued every car trip of my youth. Keep your feet on your own side, damn it!
Dadaman! Wooooooooobwoobwoobwoobwoob! ~curly shuffles~
Oh, a wise guy, eh? BONK!
Wai soitenly! Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk!
I enjoyed this one, A. It was like a weird Doobie Doo episode, complete with a cool mystery van. And I got to see Hyp again (who’s becoming one of my favorite characters, might I say).
Who would be the Scooby in this ‘Mystery Machine’? Even worse, who would be Scrappy?!
At least they picked up the one that won’t immediately consider his situation and realize how much it sucks. And they have enough weed to keep him in a fog by the sounds of it!
…… been on a few of those road trips. My half-brother Josh thinks driving 400 miles baked on a bale of weed is a weekend. Let me tell you, those trips are freaking bizarre, especially when he decides to soak some acid ahead of time.
It gets even stranger when the weekend is over and you realize….your car never left the garage the entire time!
Now that’s a road “trip”!
Oh damnit, I’ve had that happen at least once. And it was a baaaaaaaaad trip. Not as bad as a car wreck, admittedly. If you encounter a man named Josh Macadamia (a name he uses when stoned) and he offers you coffee……. well, go nuts, but fair warning it’s pretty evil stuff.
this is scary, it almost looks like he has a plan this time!
The plan is to stop for a skillet at Denny’s, rob the joint, then stop ten miles down the highway and rob a Foster’s Freeze!
Ha Ha! George Ford put his finger on it! Doobie Doo! There needs to be a Sammich run in there… Hypnausia must be hungry!
And I am also in the YAY-Hypnausia camp… but you already knew that!
Think of all the weird crap that a weirdo like Hypnausea would put in a sandwich: half drugs, half hippie health-food stuff. Ever had a weed and wheat-grass?
“Well, we wont know for a while, because next week is dedicated to another dangerous menace, one whose power makes him the most brutal terror of them all. Who is it? ”
I have already made an appearance.
Nearly everyone in the comments section is more dangerous than the comic villains!
Like, yoiks! Can’t we all just get along?? Love your color, Aidan. So light and airy, a great contrast to all the two-fisted (and two-footed) action!
Feel the colors, man! Okay, that’s the kind of stuff you’d say if you were a spaced-out hippie (just like the ones who’d ride around in the Mystery Machine)!
Does loving the terrible things your characters do to innocents make me a terrible person?
Shit. Actually it probably does. But it feels so good!
Hey, I don’t feel bad, and I drew those terrible things!
At first glance, I thought Wooly Rhino was yelling “DEATH TO NIPPLES!”
Then comes the Purple Nurple…FROM HELL!!!
As I reread the archives, I am struck by how perfect the segue is between “hope that’s the last of those tie-dyed, drug-addicted Sodomites” and Hypnausea’s entrance.
Well played, sir.
