Thank you! I wasn’t sure how well they turned out after staring at them for so long as I made them. I’m glad they look good 😊
The chandelier in particular took some effort, lol

Enter The Entrées.

Quackers Comic Halloween Special 2

Panel 1: Tom and Jason walk up the stairway to the entrance of Bleakwood Castle.
“Right, let’s head on in!” said Tom with a smile.
“Oh sure,” Jason replies, “Let’s walk straight into the dark imposing castle… What could possibly go wrong?”

Panel 2: Strolling nonchalantly toward the big wooden door of the entrance Tom responds to Jason.
“Let’s see, you could plummet to your doom through rotting floorboards, or perhaps fall prey to maniac’s fiendish booby-trap. Or maybe an evil extra-dimensional Eldritch abomination could appear and devour your soul…”
“I didn’t need a list!” cries Jason, pulling the hood of his hoodie over his eyes.

Panel 3: Tom holds the door open for Jason as they enter into the castle. Jason looks thoroughly miserable and is hugging himself.
Tom calls out, “Hello? Anyone around? We’re here for the party!”

Panel 4: Suddenly a heavily accented voice booms out around the spacious chandelier-lit room. It echoes and seems to come from everywhere at once. “Vell, vell… Two tasty looking snacks have villingly wandered into my abode?”
Tom looks surprised at the voice, while Jason starts to panic. The voice continues. “My, dis vill be a most enjoyable evening indeed!”

Panel 5: Tom looks amazed and looks about the darkened, shadow filled room. “Woah! Such a cool effect! How do you think they made their voice appear from everywhere like that?”
Jason furrows his brown in thought. “Wait a minute…” he says.

Panel 6: Jason turns to Tom and says “I think I recognise that weird accent.”
Excited, Tom comments, “Ooh, maybe we have a famous guest star?”
“With our comic’s lousy budget?” says Jason. “Not likely!”

A local self described "Centrist" politician who fled to America and Meta after losing his seat soon after the Brexit vote. Apparently he's now leaving Meta after shamelessly shilling for their AI crap for years. It would be somewhat ironic if he's lost the position to their AI.

Good, let it die.

And it’s no surprise to see Nick Clegg is as much a sycophantic toady to his business interests as he was to the Conservatives when he was in the coalition government.

It’s Victor and his Birb pals!
Realised I hadn’t done a drawing of my scaly crocogator in what felt like forever, so this was to make up for that and bring a little happy croc energy into the world.

Once more work (and a couple of other things) have conspired to mess up my schedule again, and so this episode will release here on Thursday as with last week. Apologies!

He really doesn't like scary, spooky places. He's already seen enough scary stuff when Tom cooks dinner!

Cartoon crow looking sad is flying in a wobbly pattern.

As he flies, a strange arch is seen below.

The arch leads is a lighted room, despite it not being attached to a building. The crow is curious about it.

The crow looks into the arch thru its broken window.

My bam's been boozled! My awe has been struck!

The first panel of a comic, two crows are next to a book under a pink sky. The crow reading the books says, "This chapter has me shocked and shook!"

The reading crow continues to express his bewilderment. "My gob's been smacked! My dumb's been founded! My flabber's been gasted! My as' been tonished!"

More of the crow's monologue about how rad the book is. He's floored to the basement. He's so blown way he's in a tornado. He's so impressed he's a flat panini.

Final panel of the comic. The second crow says it's his turn to read the book. Reader crow replies "Are you not enjoying your bonus reaction content?"
