    I wonder how he looks, shouting in a foreign language across the table, looking pained and supplicatory.


    "Well I guess he's an artist then."

  • Bill Soo 12 years ago archived

    So the deadlies know the Barbers by name. That can't be good.

    • Darkoneko Hellsing 12 years ago archived

      My thoughts exactly :D

    • Nightsbridge 12 years ago archived

      We know they're talking about the Barbers?

    • Del 12 years ago archived

      Actually, it appears that Envy is looking for somebody, but he doesn't know whom yet. He wants to learn the name of the family line that is important to his purposes.


      I suppose Envy could just ask Gluttony, over at the Hotel Gula. He knows.

  • Nuuni Nuunani 12 years ago archived

    Aaaah, thats the failing of Envy for you. Even when it has everything it could possibly want, it will always throw what it has away for more

    • Kaiyalai 12 years ago archived

      As long as it's too delicious to pass up.

  • rhapsha 12 years ago archived

    That's a good idea Voss, you've got a real Malform problem you need looked at.

  • Nonesuch 12 years ago archived

    Once again, evil shoots itself in the foot by its very nature. :p

    "They deserve each other"

    ... and they'll get everything that's coming to them. Amirite?

    • svartalf 12 years ago archived

      As with all of the Deadlies...YES.

        So far all of them have been let free, though... it's going to be one heck of a comeuppance if it comes! : )

  • william 12 years ago archived

    i wonder how no one remembers that they lost their ability to do something while being next to him ? if he has been doing this for sometime why has no one like a wizard or cop droped by and asked for their ablity back or else

    • das-g 12 years ago archived

      Or else what? Maybe some victims tried to pull off that stunt, thereby losing their ability to pull off such stunts. Not that the ability to ask abilities back is of any use to good ol' Voss, but it doesn't hurt him, either. As long as others don't possess it, anymore, that is.

    Is there any signifigance in Thackeray and co's address? 187 Coeper Street? And will we be meeting Mr Dawson in a later episode?

  • Mimosen 12 years ago archived

    I just think it's funny that the close-up of the paper only lets me read "persistant damage to property" - especially considering the dialogue last week..

  • MiniPlane 12 years ago archived

    Hmmm… A particular bloodline? A family name?

    Lemme guess: Barber?

  • Jerden 12 years ago archived

    Aw, they're so cute together, you're right! Look at those grins on the final panel, perfect mirror images of each other!

  • WanderingLass 12 years ago archived

    Ack! How did I get the entire thing read from beginning to now so fast?? I have no patience!! (I LOVE this webstrip!!)

  • Ike 12 years ago archived

    Envy is an alcoholic?

  • Michael Brewer 12 years ago archived

    Personally, I wanna know just what it was that the Barbers did to get the attention of the Deadlies. I'd bet it was their Grandfather who did it somehow.

    • ShakeJake 11 years ago archived

      Or that the Barbers had always had that problem, and the grandfather caused some of them to weaken or be banished in some form or another.

  • SpitefulFox 12 years ago archived

    I imagine panel 2 feeling like something tugging on his eye.

    • Kate A 12 years ago archived

      Guhhh. That made me cringe.

    • Nessus 12 years ago archived

      I imagined it as a brainfreeze-like sensation localized in the eye socket, but your way works too.

  • Nessus 12 years ago archived

    Hurg. I'm imagining either Wolfe losing his ability to play violin, or O'Malley losing his spirit vision. Possibly both, in that order.


    The latter almost seems like it could be a turnabout of some kind. As useful as it is, we know O'Malley regards his spirit version as a curse, and would be happy to be rid of it. Might be that having spirit vision would somehow be Voss's undoing.

  • Lewis 12 years ago archived

    I have to confess Envy is my favourite deadly so far, they just have such a winning smile.

  • riverfox237 12 years ago archived

    It's really fascinating that one of the seven deadlies has been sneaking around as a little, harmless-looking fox all these years...maaan, when Voss gets bit in the backside over this, it is going to be an EPIC biting, that's for darn sure.

  • Skylark Landing 12 years ago archived

    ...can he take O'Malley's talent, I wonder?

  • Ciara 10 years ago archived

    The sad thing is,"that forest vagrent" is one of the politer things Mal's been called

  • non_canon 9 years ago archived

    Just realized that the part of the add that sticks out the most is "persistent damage to property" and that amuses me far more than it should considering the conversation a few pages ago.

  • This guy 8 years ago archived

    Sigh,

    The world could have ended, but NOOO.

    Just had to get revenge.

  • Bag o Dyce 1 year ago archived

    Wonder who that dawson guy is
