That probably means something.
Today was special, because my dog Harvey was absolutely destroyed for the entire evening after witnessing a flashlight in use. He only just recently unglued himself from my calf to dare curling up on his doggy bed about a foot away.
For the uninitiated.

This is a Harvey. Yes, I dress him in little clothes. I'm one of those people. But in my defense, he needs them. We live in Chicago, and he has no fur. If you had to sit there and watch him shiver, you'd shell out for a lil' dog-sized hoodie, too.
He's not shaved, he's one of these. And bless his tiny soul, he's a natural born coward.
He's actually gotten a lot better, though. Nowadays, when he's scared, he runs in a few circles, groans as if being tortured, and dashes for the safety of my shadow. He used to just poop.
Anyway: New sketches are up to go with the new page: Three more "Do whatever!" requests that wound up themed (What can I say, I'm excited! They're filming the prequel RIGHT NOW) and a new portrait of Benny on his bio page. Handsome devil.
Enjoy!

Oh, and a scarificator is a 19th century bloodletting device. Sort of an automated leech. It could be considered a bit quacky, but really, it was just more horribly misguided than anything.
Prequel to what? The only thing those sketches look like is character from The Dark Crystal.
my mom has a rat terrier, and whenever she gets scared she does these things in this order:
1) whines
2) groans
3) barks without interruption for about half an hour
4) shakes uncontrollably for anywhere up to six hours while huddled on my mom's lap
the vet says he has "an herb" for such incidences, so maybe yours does, too?
anyway, point of the story is it's hella annoying.
also, unrelated, i listened to the podcast last week, and you're pretty great. i like your competitive streak. it's somehow refreshing.
->Jala : they are making a new Dark Crystal movie right now. I didn't know it was a prequel, though.
Dark Crystal ftw. I had heard it was going to be a CGI sequel. Prequel sounds rad.
I wonder what it is that Ben forgot inside ? He wasn't carrying a bag, was he ?
I don't think he forgot something, I think he figured something out...
Aw, poop. I was gonna be clever and point out the heart dotting the i.
My impressions were "damn, that's the ohshit moment I have just after I lock my keys in the car" and then "was that BEN's key sitting on the box in Dr. Bash's apartment" and "oh boy, is he gonna hafta wait till the guy wakes up to get into his own apartment, and meanwhile he's gonna need his pills for...whatever he needs his pills for" and "waitaminnit, Ben's door doesn't lock. Hmm."
So no, I don't have a guess as to what's next.
I think they might have just locked themselves IN.
Is it named after people who were scarified?
I'm agreeing with the whole oh junk moment but more along the lines of that Ben only has a few months worth of his prescription and he might have wanted to ask the good doctor to write him a new one so he can continue being regular or something along those lines ( we still don't understand what they are for but I'm sure we might be finding out soon ). Close but no cigar Spike?

Okay, a quick review of both IMDB and Wikipedia claims it to be a sequel, unfortunately for all the prequel-hopers. Oh, I hope it's good. I really hope it's good.
Spike, i love ya, but GET TO A BLOODY POINT in this story. Great Outdoors had a discernible arc but The Mob is rambling just like a... a... a mob, or something. looking forward to Scip's mental breakdown.
C:)
Mylord. 'He use to just poop.' I have no idea why but that's the cutest thing I've heard all day. I think there's something wrong with my Adora-sensors.
My old dog. He was pretty big. Greyhound/Doberman. When he got scared he'd hide his head under the blankets on the couch. Which he wasn't even supposed to sit on anyways. Haha.
