Okay, self-indulgence time! I was particularly pleased with how Bob Zombie turned out, and wanted to share some details. Since the flesh needed to be dropping from his bones (à la Henry Lee :)) he needed a skull under the flesh of his head. Additionally, a later strip calls for the skull to be articulated and for him to have a thick, meaty tongue. Add in a few cutesy worms crawling about in his hair, and there you go – Penny starts another new year with another new boss!
A special nod of thanks to Jason Freeny.
In which Cy Klopps begins to tell Penelope Dreadful of the story of the Bobs.
In which Cy Klopps explains that a simple congested word can have lasting impact upon the lives of others.

In which Penelope reveals just how fragile a thing management can be.
I’ve had some fun lately studying up on various cryptography topics. One thing that’s caught my fancy is Steganography – a way to embed encoded images INSIDE other images. Pretty neat stuff. Hypothetically, one could use a program such as SteganPeg to take an image, like say, today’s comic strip, and embed within it another picture using a password – maybe something like “easteregg” – and no one would even know it was there, unless they knew to look for it. Neat, huh?
In which young Penelope fails to get more green paper because of a stack of white.
