Soup the Comic Strip by Alun Clewe
Comic strip for February 20 2024.
PANEL ONE:\r\nNizini and Erlak sit at a table in Erlak\'s otherwise empty bar. Erlak has his head in his hands, despondent.\r\nNIZINI: You know, Erlak, maybe this is for the best.\r\n\r\nPANEL TWO:\r\nClose on Nizini.\r\nNIZINI: Running the bar would have taken up all your time. Now you have time for other pursuits.\r\n\r\nPANEL THREE:\r\nErlak looks at Nizini.\r\n\r\nPANEL FOUR:\r\nAngle on Erlak.\r\nERLAK: You know, Zeen, you\'re right.\r\n\r\nPANEL FIVE:\r\nClose on Erlak.\r\nERLAK: I really ought to devote more time to supporting my legions of followers.\r\n\r\nPANEL SIX:\r\nWider angle on Erlak, throwing his arms out energetically.\r\nERLAK: I\'ll use my vast power to blanket the world with soup, and show all men my might!\r\n\r\nPANEL SEVEN:\r\nBird\'s eye view of Nizini and Erlak. Erlak is raising his hands in mock triumph.\r\nERLAK: And the cry “FOR ERLAK!” shall ring out over the land...\r\nNIZINI: Okay, I know I\'ve been sarcastic lately, but you\'re REALLY overdoing it...

Yes! I did indeed get another two weeks' worth of old strips relettered and uploaded today! And I'm getting really tired of doing that! Seriously, it is not a fun process! (I know just changing the fonts may not seem like much, but I have to do some tweaking to get it to fit the old dialogue balloons (and/or, less frequently, tweak the dialogue balloons themselves), plus I have to transcribe all the dialogue for the hidden transcript, and now there's also the switching of the dates to worry about... it's a bit of a hassle.) But now I have only six weeks' worth of old strips left to go, which means I only have to do this three more times...
