So, the Weasel Queen interlude is over. Is this Storm King opera another one?

If Klaus is able to crank out more or less fully-functioning insta-clones, that's almost as bad.

If this is coming from within the castle walls and brings trouble it is probably Tweedle. Of course we still have the other K o J chess pieces to catch up with. Maybe it is one of them. I am most interested in who inhabits the queen armor.

It is frustrating to get buildups years (our time) in advance of their use.

Well we know some outcomes from a "bad future" and a lot of the things of a possible timeline so yeah we are playing with a frustrating deck at times when we try to piece them together.

Ol Man of Many Hats: "Whichever Gil it is . . . "

To see Klaus playing mind control games with his son was grotesque enough without the thought of a doppelganger being unleashed as well.

Remember, too, that the prototype wasp which struck down Klaus was the creation of the same geniuses responsible for the blowup at Passholdt.

Hi Mauri Thanks for mentioning you read Momo. It is one of those special books. The time windows are also a case where the set up is years before (or after) our characters get to them. What I was thinking about were all the cast characters we have seen but not met in the sense of getting to know their name and story. It might not be possible to do a graphic novel Phil style and not have a great deal of extra cast at any one time. Still we hanker to get to know them. Professor Large Ham and the messenger with the green tribble riding under her hat. Hell even the Assistant whose unknown name puzzles even Vanemonde. These we have all met within four days (story) time. Yet years of our time have passed without a complete introduction. Meanwhile more characters have been introduced and we are left to guess which are bit players and which will have a more central role. Ah well. Being teased by the Foglios is the price one pays for a peek at three pages a week usually with a good laugh included.

Now if I only had the patience of a Jaeger general or a spare time window.

Well thanks for mentioning it earlier a lot earlier. And yes given the format we are viewing it with makes me wonder that if in any of the novels we get a full intro on some of the characters that we see in those "four days story time" edition?

Third would it be Wooster bringing Agatha to England? a zombie Lars? the fashion clank from the weasel queen storyline? Tune in on monday to find out.

Well for an early update you would need to put Old Bear and myself on REM so the REM monitor can warn the Foglios so they can update.

Bailey's Irish Cream does a good job, too. The more Bailey's the better it works.

Honestly, both my wife and my hunting partner will tell you I fall asleep faster than anyone they know. All I need is a flat-ish place. It doesn't have to even be dark. Just give me a few minutes of quiet and I'm out. And in about an hour, that's just what I'll be doing.

We have to worry whether Klaus's deception-technology might make it possible for him to actually disguise himself as Agatha.

Well Sorry I forgot I just saw it up and went on what the hell it is up on the main site. If it is Klaus then he really got to use the black vault with interest. I think more on Agatha picking some tricks from The Circus.
