Coast is clear
Rob looks down but maybe there could be a smile in his future. Not in this story though. There wasn’t space to make him merry. There wasn’t even space to make a very nicely drawn scene-setting panel bigger than a postage stamp.
Bad Machinery
New comics by John Allison
Monsieur, with this fanservice you are really spoiling us.
I hope you’re taking notes here, Glom.
Also, “Fire Inside” was one of my favorite cases.
Does this mean romance is dead for poor firebug Claire?
Not dead. Just simmering slowly.
That second to last panel seems ominous…
I’m not sure Glurmyn won’t run back to the relative safety of Cathey when he finds out what life is like with Claire Little!
Love the sea creature coat hanger
The “drunk octopus wants to fight you” meme taken one level further!
I always think of it as a drunk mammoth. Or possibly mimmoth.
“Thlow Thimmer” is my Metal Bardcore band name.
Rob is missing about three lenses from his Zambian, or maybe that’s an older model… or maybe the Zambian AsbestOS for firefighters…
Looks like that’s an Amstrad
If Claire keeps romance at a thlow thimmer, Ygln won’t notice that his goose is cooked.
So Claire is coddling him? That is, in more ways than one?
So Claire and Ygln are both coming out of Claire’s room in the morning?
Pretty sure they are leaving for drinks with the gang, still early in the eve. We’ll probably jump over to Mama’s greatest achievement for a bit next.
Oh yes, thanks. Reading comics in real-time (early) morning is conducive to temporal misunderstandings.
They’re still wearing the same outfits they’ve had on since the beginning of the story.
I like that Claire’s gloves are on strings. My flatmates and I did this one winter but when spring came and I cut them free I was so used to simply ‘letting go’ rather than stowing them safely in my pockets I dropped them casually on the floor of WH Smith and an assistant had to run after me to give them back.
And now you’ve been married for 23 years?
So Claire’s idea is to cook her “victim” like a frog? Nice! But if things don’t go smoothly and she panics, I’m afraid she might decide to use the flamethrower.
Poor Rob. Abandoned by his wife AND his cartoonist.
He’s doing his daily check-in to see whether Diesel Sweeties has started updating again.
Firefighters can’t deal with the fire of love.
[I wonder if they listen to Gun Club]
These two will never heat up
