Being chased is an important Beatle skill so I guess they have “levelled up”. Nemulon, in bouncer mode, looks a bit like Robert Cop. Remember Robert Cop? No? Good.
NEMS
I think it might have been the Rutles and not the Beatles who played the Rats Keller in Hamburg but hopefully the meaning is clear. Literally, a cellar of rats.
Just one week remains of Destroy History. I’m writing this on June 15th and I have no idea what comes next… but by the time you read this, I’m sure I’ll be able to tell you. [UPDATE, August 6th] it’s more Steeple, Secret Sentai starts soon!
It’s the final week of Destroy History. Apparently I decided to celebrate this with some very sharp outfits for Sid and Shelley.
I’m very taken with the Joan Didion fan in panel 5. I want to keep her very safe. I hope she and Shelley can strike up a conversation on the tube at some point because I sense a friendship waiting to happen. Come back tomorrow for the penultimate episode of NEMS!
[ADDENDUM APRIL 2024] I wrote “to be continued” at the end of this and scripted a second part in 2022 but found it beyond my skill to draw. Hard to explain without you seeing it, so I put the whole 32-page rough version up on Patreon. I think the original NEMS was a product of the intense focus of the pandemic lockdown and by the time I got to part 2, I wasn’t up to it. Tough years! I’ve now unlocked these posts.
