    And here I thought that sailors cussed because they were stuck on a boat with nothing but hard labor and other swarthy men... Turns out it might be a defense mechanism to keep Dagon from driving them insane. I always thought those limericks could be powerful if chanted. Good thing Muffy knows the lingo.


She's known Al for quite some time. This was probably therapeutic.

    Things grow ever more intriguing. The reveal at the end of part 2 seems like something I should have seen coming, but it was a well done surprise.


You know how I hate to have unusued characters just cluttering up the Parodyverse.

    The creepiness of the setting was used to good effect, and the action scenes were tense and fun. I like the inclusion of the Bitches here, as the Earth girls are all a little too even tempered of a cast to make sparks fly. The addition of a rougher element to the mix really lets them shine, though.


No point in throwing our heroes into an alien culture if there's no-one to culture clash with.

    I really hope Lara doesn't come back as quite as much of a dick as most of the newish gods we've meet. I'm thinking it's probably best that she skip the wall thing entirely. Just because you're visiting a new place doesn't mean you have to hit all of the tourist attractions, after all.


I suspect that seeing something ike the wonderwall changes your perspective of the little people.

    The EEE rescue team are still an odd mix, and yet are proving to be a great deal of fun together. I really hope they don't all die. I'd say the nod to a place for round-robin continuity suggests they make it back, but it's less clear, even having read the round robin, just how sane they are when they return. Of course, that's mostly because it wasn't clear how sane they were going in...


You seem to have this obsessive fear that I'll kill characters. I haven't offed any cast since three issues back now.

    Lots of fun... looking forward to the next part once the rest of the board wanders back around.


Yes, I'm wishing there was more activity. I could use some distractions right now.
