What is Horley doing to that dog in the first panel? Is it just on a leash and I'm horrifically misinterpreting him?

That's not how you pet a dog.

That's how you give a dog head scritches.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

He reminds me of myself.


Also, Pasq is rubbing off on Katie. It's nice seeing them shout a genuine "YAAYYYY!" together in celebration of puppy-bonding. The Katie from the beginning of the comic wouldn't have been able to do that.
She was such a psychological mess.

I'm beginning to think this. It's easy to judge people who are different, isn't it? Maybe it's okay to look and talk like a child's nightmare. Maybe we should consider that.

I'm trying to decide if it's a good or a bad sign that Maddie likes him.

I thought up until now that Horley Shorley was just Gob pulling around a picture of someone (maybe himself?) into weird positions like the beginning of Mario 64 but that smile in panel 3 is decidedly different than every other appearance. Oh well.

Almost every Horley shot has 2 eyes from 2 different people, a nose from another person, and a mouth from another person. Components from 5 people per face, and I'm pretty sure I never used the same person twice. I might be wrong. Sometimes I used paintings and other things, but most of the time it's just pics of people. Horley took a lot of work but in the end I think it was totally worth it.

Horley has been present from the first page of the comic; where he's not visible it's typically because the panel's framing places him behind the 'fourth wall' in the room with the reader

Horley is 100% a Josef creation. I just kinda followed directions art-wise. Josef told me that Horley came from a dream he had.

Hah! This can't phase me, all the creepy dreams I had as a child have made me immune against visitations like this

At least I hope so. Otherwise, all the times 8-year old me lucid sleep walked into monster fish swimming through the air were just goddamn annoying for no good reason
