Do you remember when those two were the protagonists?

Good times.

I remember when those two and Monique were all good friends, and would actually go out and have fun and smile and all that good crap.

Too bad that Xanthe says it's actually impossible for women to actually have fun when men are around. Her word is law after all.

Hey Squig and Slick! Off to the daily grind! Devilcorp provides equal opportunity employment for all.

And after all the crazy shit that has happened I don't blame Squig for coming up with a crazy theory.

Except he got from online, not came up with it.

Still. Nice to see the two again.

Say, when was the last time 'Nique directly interacted with either of those two?

Not since Slick tried to point out the obvious to Monique and was therefore wrong to point out the obvious "If you try to rile up people, they get riled up"-

I can't remember any strip since Slick was "Victim Blaming" (Read: Pointing out obvious) that Slick has interacted with Monique. I think Squig and Monique have interacted even less.

Honestly, I am just glad to see these guys. They seem to be only ones who aren't actively trying to fuck up someone and claim they are "heroes".

They are Working Joes. Working the 9 to 5, instantly more sympathetic.

Some would say Slick is less sympathetic because he doesn't need that job. That said, the only reason her even took it was to support Squiggly who was freaking out about applying.

That makes him pretty sympathetic applying for a job to help ease a friend.

So hey! Guess who has the ability to sense when people are running about in Hellmouth areas? The Devil? No! Why would the man who most likely CREATED the ability to make Hellmouth's have that ability!?

Freaking a, Vainglorius is on par with Sasuke from Naruto in terms of pulling powers out of his ass.

I wonder if Lord Peckerhead can detect my sheer contempt for him.

I'm longing for an accident involving him, the reality zone, total shield failure, and a .410 shell loaded with 000 buckshot.

Where the hell Is the Devil anyway?

Ah yes, Vainglorious. Did catch a little bit of him before I jumped ahead and yeah, first thing I thought looking at him was Sasuke. He's drawn with a quasi-swagger that just makes it insufferable.

Also that name. Sweet Jesus that name.

Well, they are walking right under him. And for all we know, he just has a vague sense of something happening right where he's standing, but can't tell if it's really under him or just around him or a false positive.

Someone has to play devil's advocate here, you know. (Doesn't mean I'll do it if it involves really shitty writing, though.)

Fair enough. Seismic Sense would be perfectly acceptable.

The name is why I refer to him exclusively as Lord Peckerhead. It's basically the same thing.

Dude's actually probably got the most "fan" nicknames of anyone in the cast. You got Lord Peckerhead, Dark Lord of the Douche, I even thing one place gave him the nickname Dipshiticus Rex.

Oy, who's the guy with the orb, Tats? I'm guessing "The Foreseer" or something?

Y'know, given the placement of the shadow one would think Vainglorius was the power behind the Sisterhood.

Not really certain how I would feel if that were the case. I mean, I hate them both.

He's going for pretentious outside of the Sunday comics as well now.

He was last seen telling the Devil about Vainglorious's impending threat, though IIRC he didn't name him to Big D.

Y'know, I just had a thought. What if Tats isn't really a believer in the brand of Feminism the Sisterhood spout, and is more going through a massive case of sour grapes from being unable to get laid? It'd certainly explain his rather odd ideas on the sexes.

"Well of COURSE women don't want to sleep with me! Sex is an evil nasty thing that should only be used for procreation! Besides, women don't actually have sexual desires! That's all due to men and their evil patriarchy!"

I did consider the possibility that he wasn't a believer in radical feminism myself, several times in fact. But I never thought of connecting it to his love life, beyond the odd coincidence that around the time the comic began it's most definite fall down the slippery slope, there were a few strips involving The Artist trying to patch up things with his ex-girlfriend, only for extenuating circumstances to prevent her from noticing he's in town at all.

Eh, I got nothing.
