Soup the Comic Strip by Alun Clewe
Comic strip for February 19 2024.
PANEL ONE: We see Nizini and Erlak from behind, gazing at a bowl-shaped building with lettering reading "The Bar of Soup" NIZINI: It looks nice, Erlak. ERLAK: I don't understand it! PANEL TWO: Closer on Nizini and Erlak NIZINI: What's wrong? ERLAK: Where IS everybody? This is supposed to be the grand opening! NIZINI: It is? PANEL THREE Front angle on Erlak and Nizini. Erlak hands a flyer to Nizini. ERLAK: Well, yeah! Didn't you see it on the flyer? PANEL FOUR: Nizini holds the flyer as Erlak points at it. ERLAK: Right there! “Grand opening in two weeks”! PANEL FIVE: Nizini hands the flyer back. NIZINI: You know, that might have been more helpful if it had said two weeks from WHEN. ERLAK: Oh yeah, huh?

Well, once again I... absolutely did not get another two weeks' worth of old strips relettered and uploaded yesterday. But I will today. I swear I will today.

Why, in any case, am I set on doing two weeks' worth of strips at a time? Why not one week, or just... however many I happen to get done? I don't know. I guess it's just... some unfortunate aspect of my mental operation? I guess I may sort of have a penchant for devising and following arbitrary systems when there's no good reason to do so. (Not when there is a good reason to do so, though. Never then.)
