He's awfully familiar.

Scene change!

I think we've seen enough of the Elliotts for a bit.

I love the firearm nipple ring.

Wow...you'd think they would de-bone those guinea pigs before serving them. but then, this IS Templar.

If you took the bones out, it wouldn't be crunchy.

I love the design element in your comic, from the architecture to today's awesome character design.

Yes! Sassy Cavy FTW. Just reminds me that I need to order another Sassy Cavy shirt, since mine got ruined in a freak washing machine accident.

I love the WTF is THIS? look on Ben's face. That's exactly what I thought when I saw whatever that was.

I heard a "Good Food" episode on KCRW where the food columnist went to a Peruvian restaurant and ate one. This is how they're served, whole and all. Spike's done the research, people! ;)

Also ... this is mean. Very mean. ;)

And yet, thematically, the scene is linked!

Auuh! I want to see!

Somewhere in Skinner, EJ Elliot is BEATING THE LIVING FUCK out of Marcus, and I am imagining it in all its gruesome glory, partly because I'm trying to unsee Officer Nicky in his San Francisco Patrol Uniform. I mean this is AWESOME so far but, euugghh...

It took a while to understand what I was seeing in the first panel. Perhaps my innocent visual cortex was just not ready, but I still think there is something wrong with with the perspective. Is his left arm that long? what is his right ankle doing? Does he have man-boobs protruding from his open top? Spike is usually pretty picky about these things, is it just me?
Loved last two panels though.

No words...can express the sheer awesomeness.

I love this comic still!

It'd be awesome if you made a "Wiki" to describe the various aspects of Templar, the sub-cultures, etc.

Pseudo- It's just you. ;)

Nicky in perfect proportion for Nicky (though not most other normal human beings)—lanky and freakish. It works well for his character design as he is such an outrageous exaggerated character to begin with. I've known ppl in RL who are actually built like this, too... One dude I used to role-play with reminded me of a jabberwocky...tall, outrageously long-limbed and super toothy.

But I sort of what to erase today's image from my mind, too. I could really do without the visual of the officer outfit... Blah! Icky!

Then we have dead guinea pig burger in the last frame to mirror the grossness (though the cavy burger for some reason is less shocking to me than seeing Officer Nicky).

But the little leg stuck to the top totally makes it.

Oh Ben.

I missed your charming little face.


Wonderful as always. SUPER EXCITED to (eventually) be able to afford the next book.

Okay... hold on. Since when did Ben watch Nicky's show?

The nudist interview program I can understand, but this?

[Today's Captcha: Symptoms Arrested!]

Ben signed up for pretty much every locally-produced channel he could in the first chapter. I think he decided to go from hiding from his new town to taking in as much of it as possible, once he got back from his jaunt with Reagan.

Big Bubba Square-dick. Wow.

For some reason, I can't remember who Nicky is. D: What chapter was he introduced in again?

Don't forget Bubba's Grease! A friend of mine made that mistake once. It turned his prison sentence into some sort of punishment.

This panel has it all!

Oh my God, Nicky Collision.

I would totally have your babies if I thought you were into that kind of thing.

Man, my first thought is "Ben is gay? But that doesn't make sense, he passed up the cock o' science!"
My second thought was "hawt"
Now I want to find where Nicky comes from to get the context.
Also, he's fine. He's just wearing a really tight top which makes his chest push out a bit.

Captcha: Gathering anyone... but to do what?

December 10th, 2007, first appearance of Nicky on feed. It's in book 3 (And a Stick...).

He's mentioned in book 2, June pages, when Curio and Tuesday show up, Tuesday mentions that she saw Borndown reviewed on Damage Report and Sunny has choice words about Mr. Collision.
