I THOUGHT that art looked familiar! At first I thought you were trying a new style.

One cannot be too confident, can one?

Haven't viewed Fred's stuff in years.

Are these lawyers from the cast of Bob Fosse's "Chicago"? They sure sound like they're dancing up a storm"

"Even if we're sued, the lawyers can can keep it tied up in court forever!"

(To be honest, I didn't even notice it at first, I read it as normal, then I had a brain-itch of "that's not right," so I re-read the balloon slowly and the doubled word at the word wrap finally revealed itself.)

Keeping it tied up in court might actually be a worse idea than just negotiating a settlement; you might have the funds to keep the retrials going, but the bad publicity will hurt your market share, and then the investors will start abandoning ship.

It ceases to be an issue when you have sufficient funds. Look at what Chevron did in Ecuador. They were successfully sued by the farmers and indigenous people... and then proceeded to appeal in a U.S. court with one of two handpicked (read: SUPER corrupt, and blatantly so) judges to declare, "welp! The Ecuadorian ruling can't be enforced, and also Chevron are pure angels!"

The other handpicked judge went after the attorney who had won the Ecuadorian lawsuit, Steven Donziger. When the district attorney's office refused to prosecute, she hired a private law firm (who were ALSO loyal to Chevron... and had repeatedly represented Chevron as a client) to serve as prosecutor, made an illegal demand that he turn over a laptop with protected information, then ruled him in contempt of court and sentenced him to months in prison. And also had him permanently disbarred.

This sort of thing is why I'm REALLY eager to see Smiling Jack in action, and wishing we had someone like them in RL.

Fred Perry is one of legends. Like you.

Wow, how'd you get a collab with Fred Perry?

I forgot all about this project <3

New story? Let's goooo!!!

oohh boy! nothing can stop me now! ho ho ho!

I’m sure this will end well for him and no one will come after him, no siree

That title insults men. And small people. These kinds of scum are barely worthy of being called a disease, and need to be excised just as badly, if not moreso.

Man Fred perry...I never knew he was still alive.

good heavens, this sets up a good narrative and I already wanna inject Capsicum into that jackasses scrotum
