I have seen the universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim –
Where they roll in their horror unheeded,
Without knowledge or luster or name.

I wonder how Jack Kirby did his famous Kirby crackle.  He didn’t have photoshop.  The thought of hand-drawing all those interlocking circles…it’s just amazing.

    Oops… empty. Was it enough? Or will Joey be up and happy the next moment (week)?

    By the way, when Jacob touches him (sits on him), shouldn’t he be affected, too?

    …so, we know way back on the ship Jacob’s gun showed 297 shots left. Assuming he didn’t reload since then, and assuming Joey brought a full gun with him…

    … that’s a lot of hurty.

    @Sonja Rubber Underpants – Not just a fetish item in the Genocide Project.

    Jacob, you should have used Energizer Batteries. (plug about how nothing outlasts them here with the infamous bunny banging its drums passing by)

    The only sure way to prevent a recovery is get that shovel and separate the head…then watch these jaws snap about like that of a beheaded fire ant warrior…

    @von: Well, he said he switched loadouts for the drones. And I suppose it’s possible that all the abuse he’s been heaping on those guns depleted the batteries early.

    @Mox: I’m half-convinced that DB’s are the driving force behind the Genocide Project.

    @Remus: If they are, I’ll hurt you.

    Stick a fork in him. I think he is done. Extra crispy.

    Whew, I hope he’s really dead.

    @SCAScot: I wouldn’t do that to you. 🙂

    Thanks for directing my attention to the Kirby Crackle. I ran across it in a few Marvel releases and never perceived it actively.

    An old fashion electroshock massage. Nice one Jacob.

    The psychopath slasher in the movies always gets up and strikes again because the teenagers never take a wooden stake and finish the job. If Jacob leaves it here and does a “come on, let’s get out of here,” I’m going to slap someone.

    Yes, he definitely needs to burn the body. There’s a fire and a pitchfork already, its the only way to be sure!
