Is Nice Pete mortally wounded, or is this just going to be an egg-beater lobotomy that changes his behavior?

Holy crap! This strip is pretty savage, even by Achewood standards. I can't help but thing Nice Pete isn't quite dead, though, because that knife didn't dig very deep.

It seems like becoming very angry at something trivial is akin to a death wish around Achewood.

In "Dune", fear is the mind killer.

In "Achewood", anger is the slightly-anthropomorphized cat killer.

So it should be.

Hooray! Fuck you Nice Pete.

That plus the thread title is perfection itself.

Apparently quick cam drivers default the vote for murder to "Yes".  If only Pete had looked a little harder for the correct drivers, he wouldn't have ended up in such a pickle.  This should teach you the dangers of non-plug and play devices.

Yes.  Also indicative of their personalities.  While T's eye's are squinched shut, Ray is watching with a mixture of confusion, disgust and relief.

It took me a moment to realize that the lines on the blade in panel six represented motion, rather than some sort of wood grain.  That might have been a bit too sadistic even by Nice Pete's standards.

Does anyone else have trouble visualizing how Nice Pete could have fallen over such that the device would still be running at blade's-length from his head?  Has he fallen forward onto the device?  Whatever the case, my guess is that he will survive, if only because a "Nice Pete in Heaven" kind of story arc doesn't really sound like it would work all that well.

What about Nice Pete in Hell?  Wouldn't that present some interesting possibilities?

Yeah, like Nice Pete running people over GTA-style in his shiny new Subaru Brat.
