Yeah, it's another oldie, and not even involving animals, unless you count the talking skeleton as a 'morph". But it beats nothing at all, so get off my back.

Know what? I don't comment alot, but I still love looking at your stuff.
This comic may have a very dark and gloomy meaning behind it, but god I still love your stuff. I don't think I'll ever get tired of reading your shorts or looking at your clean style of art and character designs.
Rock on, guy with the long white beard. Rock on.

Reminds me of a good cartoonist and one of the best historians ever to grace this fucking planet, Jack Jackson, or 'Jaxon' as he was called. Was one of the first underground cartoonests, even before R. Crumb, though they all frequented the same area in California while he was up there.
Funny, he did such great work both in researching history and drawing comics and never got any real respect or fame for it. Hell, no one even gave a shit about him until he published a comic depicting the utter faliure that was the Reconstruction effort in Texas after the Civil War, and depicting the utter brutal truth of that got him a lot of publicity... all of it bad because he made people look at stuff they did not want to admit and branded him as a racist for it.
Poor guy, After years of having leftist muckrackers after him and branding his work as trash, and dealing with many health problems, he finaly shot himself just a few years ago. Makes you wish you got to know people before just to tell them that their lives mean something and not to listen to all the crap out there that can bring them down.

Heh, this remins me of the Episode of Red Dwarf (brittish scifi humor) Future echos.
The lead character, Lister, gets told by a hologram of his worst life-met person, Rimmer, that he just saw a future echo of Lister dying.
Most of the episode is about avoiding Lister's death, learning that fate can't be changed, by trying to change it, it makes it happen sooner. So, Lister confronts his mission.
He asks Rimmer what he was wearing and just before Lister leaves, he grabs a metal pipe, and the conversation that follows is thus:
R: "Lister, what are you doing?"
L: "I'm going out the same way I came in, kicking and screaming."
R: "You can't wack death on the head!"
L: "He comes near me I'm gonna rip his nipples off!"
*laughs*

what an unusual and beautiful way to say good-bye, and deliver a philosophic outlook on it all.
I remember you writing about Destrier's and his wive's death. wasn't it a leaking gas line in their camper or something? deaths like these seem so... useless. I can understand you wanting to whack somebody's head in.
