    Freddy ain’t lying. We all thought “Rapture” was a joke.

       It certainly is an odd song. The chimes are cool. Chimes are always cool. Chimes should become the new cowbell.

         It’s all about the tubular bells. (And, of course, Tubular Bells.)

    When I read about the football sequence, this Fletcher Hanks panel was the first thing to pop up in my head. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-M6dwcbR7GiY/Tchk5StT_aI/AAAAAAAAAHs/pjjrlIe1PRA/s1600/hanks2.gif

      Oh shit, now I feel like I wanna see a “commentary track” in the book to point out that stuff. Off topic, the strip looks smaller now. I guess the page is coded differently?

         Yeah, it’s a bit reduced this week. It’ll be back to normal next time.

    the football panel is gold

    edit: aw, man. I had loaded BB and immediately put this page in a separate tab from the “latest comic” icon. after browsing the main page, I switched tabs into this page without refreshing and posted. your comment wasn’t on my page and now I look like a dick-rider, but whatevs. that panel *is* dope, and the inspiration panel is dope, too.

    Great like always. After hip-hop is the New Wave music series coming or is the the punk rock 70′s?
