I fully expect there to be ice cream awaiting Philippe, and all the gang to show up there while Nice Pete and Phil are licking their cones (easy fellas) and both of them looking at everyone like "What?"


This wouldn't surprise me. Especially if it turned out there were bodies in all the closets and stuff. NP just wouldn't realize that this would creep out other people.

Maybe it'll be hot fudge sundaes served out of hollowed librarian skulls.

I don't know why I find this image so compelling, but it is.

I feel like I should mention now that this week is the first one I can think of where it's been raining consistently here in the Bay Area.  The only possible conclusion to make is that Achewood controls the weather, since it's also been raining in the strip almost all week.

At first I read this as "hollowed libertarian skulls."

But, there is no electricity going to the shed, to keep any icecream from melting.

I agree that these bleak nightime scenes have shown off some of the most inventive and nice art in awhile.  I guess dread and murder are Onstad's muses.


Ditto.  I am digging this whole Achewood noir approach.  All though we are all aghast at the horrible thought of something dire happening to Phillippe, let us not forget how danged violent the strip has been, what with the shootings and the golf carts off of cliffs.

Yeah, but that's Beef. I love the guy, but it's also just sort of the natural flow of his life for him to constantly be near-death (or there) and in bad emotional situations. Beef is beyond helping, but Philippe we really feel for.

That, and how can you not feel sympathy for a five-year-old otter dressed as a "bumble-bee?"

Philippe's not sad because it's raining. It's raining because he's sad.

...Phillipe morphs into Angry Teenaged Phillipe (TM) and defeats the serial killer with his sharp sarcasm and deadening disaffection.

I think whether this situation gets good or exponentially worse will depend entirely on who the first one is to find Nice Pete and Philippe.  I would like to posit that the hands-down worst outcome would be if Pat gets there first.  (with or without Arthur in tow)

Well, it is Pat's fault that they're stuck with Nice Pete in the first place. Maybe he could get all killed for once.

If Nice Pete does anything bad to Philippe, I will hunt him down and kill him.  I don't care that he's a cartoon character.  You leave Philippe alone, you mofo.


Count me in.  We'll start a DC area posse and go on a road trip to find him and rip him apart with our bare hands and cook his still beating heart in a pot of Roast Beef's Five Dollar Chili.

Aaaaaaagh!

was my response.  I agree with wombat on this one.  The part that really clinched it for me was how little Phillip doesn't even have arms to climb down from the van, let alone defend himself...
