Exiern: A Slug Penny Vs Something Questionable pt3
This is an April special comic. We are doing a different format this month for a change. Art by Ivan Cortez
On a side note you know something that always bothered me as a kid when I watched the Scooby Doo cartoon. How come Scooby was never burned at the stake. He was clearly an animal host for a demonic spirit of gluttony. I really felt that should have come up at some point in the cartoon.
Do you really need a soul to work in fast food, I know the companies would prefer it if you didn’t, cuts down on that nasty asking for days off and paying you for your work.
well they do hire people to work in fast food that have souls, but part of the process of making their delightfully tasty meals is that slowly over the course of months and, occasionally (in the case of very tenacious individuals) years the soul is slowly sucked out of you by the mindless, depressing and, menial labor. this produces the perfect service drone, utterly miserable but due to the long hours and low pay unable to escape the endless toil
Yeah, that sounds about right. Gods only know how much of mine has turned to ash over the last 11 years…. Sad/amusing part is that actual fast food (McD’s) was less dangerous to my mental health than the family restaurant trying to turn itself into fast food (Wendy’s).
Well, not a bad guest comic, love the whole “Exiern gone teenage” thingy:) and thats definitly something i would see a young Faden put together hehehe. but when will the normal comic continue? and what is the elder god saying btw? your standard”u will all die by my tenticles!”stuff or something more?
And yes working in the food industry can be boring as hell, i work in an eggfarm the whole day putting trays with eggs on a machine, not the most fun work(quite straining on the back) but it pays really well hehe.
I have worked at the same place for 20 years and lost my soul early on.
After a while drinking takes the place of a soul quite nicely thanks.
Please keep this going (as an alternate) past April, this is funny too.
