I like how Ray's demonic stylings tend to match whoever's playing, all small and such when Beef takes over, for instance. Almost like the inner darkness of whoever's playing is being channeled into Ray. Keep that thing away from Lyle and Nice Pete.

Actually, who knows what would happen with Nice Pete, since he wears his inner darkness on his sleeve. Maybe his inner good would shine through instead.

Frankly I don't think anybody who says "here's a bag of their hands" has inner good.

It would be sweet if Ray started rapping about Eustace K. Dobbs.

Every time something weird happens to Ray I wonder if it has to do with his deal with the devil or the little bird he ate.  Prolly not.

Onstad keeps the great storylines rolling. This is excellent.

I agree with MSC that the demon receiver is the t-shirt. Note the difference between Ray's lyrical stylings with ("AIIIIGHT!") and without ("Friendship Lane").

Nice touches: Phillipe's happy eyebrows while he's dancing and the way the room goes dark when Satan speaks through Ray. Also Beef's Ken Burns joke.

I am so into this arc now. It was good but I didn't know why before, but now... It's just great.

And who can't love Philippe's dance!

This strip had special meaning for me because one of my best friends has diabetes. He is one of the unlucky ones.

I just realized Devil Ray is the flip-side of Sufjan Stevens. Check out the last frame vs.
He will take you/If you run, he will chase you/Cause he is the Lord

Meanwhile, plucka plucka pluck.

I just remembered that my diabetic friend can play the banjo.
