Why must Cayla answer Nate’s question with one of her own? Is she covering for Les? Is Nate supposed to not know that Les is out flogging his book? Could it be that last time Nate inquired of Cayla about Les’ whereabouts, she caught hell from the Grounded One for spilling the beans?
Please, please let today’s panel 3 spell closure, not only to the “Les Finally Gets Published (Again)” story arc, but to Lisa’s ghostly presence. “Spanky” needs to choose a living, breathing, flesh and blood companion; either that, or let him to join his “favorite girl” in the afterlife. Query whether this is not Les’ sweet reverie, but rather Lisa’s own hell: condemned to spend eternity in Westview, the town that joy forgot.
Les is in mad demand. The Widow Darling has heard of Les’ success and wants him for the “Today” Show. Les’ friends are beside themselves with glee. Susan appears to slip her hand into the back of Les’ skull and work him like a ventriloquist’s dummy.
If it’s any consolation, the Puppies Behind Bars arc should kick in after next week. ‘Til then I’m sure we can look forward to more gritty, true-to-life New York street scenes, and maybe cameos by Matt Lauer and Meredith Viera, drawn so you can’t tell them apart.
The reviews are starting to come in, and naturally, they’re “good wow”. Kent State University Press may have to add a second shift to keep up with demand.
Yawn.
Even a putz like Les Moore gets tired after awhile of having sunshine blown up his ass. All he wants now is to get out of the pizza joint and back to the office slash garage to start writing Lisa’s Story II: The Other Other Shoe. But his agent slash publicist has got other plans: the organ grinder bids the monkey dance some Mo’.
