JEFBOT.84_Death by Degree
This is the penultimate strip in, well, what should this storyline be called? “The Reich Gärt Saga”? “Deodorant Story”? “The Smell of Fear” from strip #82 has a nice ring to it… What do you think?
Also, big birthday wishes go to Xinda’s counterpart in real life, my sister, Linda! Her birthday at Disneyland was ruined by Miley Cyrus this past weekend, who closed down the park for her Sweet 16 while Linda was there celebrating her own birthday. Hopefully, the “squeal of fear” in this strip will warm Linda’s heart and help her find her smile again. Happy Birthday, Warrior Sista!
Previous strips in this storyline:
• JEFBOT.80_What Sexy Isn’t
• JEFBOT.81_Made For a Woman
• JEFBOT.82_The Smell of Fear
• JEFBOT.83_Never Let Them See You Sweat
Wondered how you were going to resolve the situation.
Congrats on a great storyline! Can’t wait to see your guest strip.
thanks, mombot! right now, it’s looking like next wednesday for the guest strip.
how about “A Streetcar Named Perspire?”
ha! wait, no… aaarrggghh!!! that one hurt, k-bed.
“Hug?”… Wait is that your sister or mine? I’d recognize that abuse anywhere! Great job Jefbot! And hey, at least your eyeballs smell fresh!
funnyshaffer, wouldn’t want to leave the apartment without fresh-smelling corneas!
Yup…that’s about how I would expect that to end up.
with xinda, it always ends in tears.
I like the spray in the face, looks very…un-pleasent. As it should!
and now jefbot’s face is reinforced with time-released odor control, j!
I am gagging trying to swallow the fact that Xinda and Hannah Montana share a birthday…
It’s liek the universe was trying to even itself out.
i feel dirty. guess whose doing the dishes… ps. what does tomixcomics mean by his comment?
run tomix, RUN!!!!
also, the perfect sibling has no family, only targets!
I’m afraid to say that you just explained it yourself.
jeffy, how do i find tomixcomix? i want his name and address!!! NOW
im not sure if its really the guy i think he is, but if he is the he lives in israel, tel aviv and hes name is tomy zendshtein, it could be a fan of him, so anyway the guy is somewhere near israel, please dont kill him too fast, he makes good comics
too late, tomix.
Oh my GAWD!!! So Funny, Jefbot! I really like this story line, the dialogue, the colors. I LOVE the spray on your face. I also like how true to life it is. Although, your sister is taller than you.
Hey I’ve been reading for a while (haven’t set up my avatar yet b/c my comp is in storage), and your family sounds pleasantly twisted P-D
thanks for the comment, eptha. and as far as my family being pleasantly twisted – yep, you got that right! heheh. but isn’t everyone’s, really?
I, too, LOVE the spray in the face. I also like the docile look of Xinda’s eyes in the third panel; the calm before the storm.
Love it and can feel the spray!
ha! does it burn?
