What’s it mean….now I am afraid of death and words I can’t understand.

It wouldn’t be Monday without a healthy dose of dread, right? (Colin gives a translation in his punchline. I just wonder, in retrospect, if Mr. Bloodharvest isn’t a little small in panel three. Que sera sera…)

As a child, I had a little plastic skeleton I carried around whose name was “Mr. Bones.” I can identify with Sprout! Hahahah

Deathblade Bloodharvest…. hmmm… doesn’t he come down the chimney and hand out presents on Christmas? I could be confusing him with the Easter Bunny.

Samantha: I want a Mr. Bones! That’s awesome.
David: No no no. On Decemberween, Abraham Lincoln rides a golden chariot down the rainbow bridge to bring deathnotes to all good cats and dogs.

Deathblade Bloodharvest, huh? That sounds like the name of a fearsome sesame street gang.

This looks great Chris! I don’t know what you were so worried about. I have to admit I didn’t realize the figurine was Death-blade - I thought it was just a toy - not that it matters to the story. The figurines size is fine Mr. Puckerpants…sqeeee. Our house also has a Mr. Bones that the kids play with. it can be positioned and glows in the dark.

George: You may be on to something there…
*squee*
Greg: Thanks! The massive shrink-down from 15″-high wall art to 290 pixel high web art helps a lot

Decemberween? Kudos for the H*R reference!

Anything for you, Biscuitdoughhandsman! I mean, Bryan!

I love all the cross-cultural references in O.P., Chris - very interesting!
By the way, could you spell out (roughly) how that is pronounced (I have a feeling that info would be very useful on trivia night)!

Ha! Trivial Pursuit: Tower of Babel edition
It’s read: Chimatsuri DehsuBurehdo.
Really glad you like the culture mix, Robert!

My favorite Halloween decoration was a full size blow-up skeleton. I used to tie floss to it’s head, and yank it up out of a seating position to scare other kids. ahhh, meeeeeeemories….

ANNND cultures clash!

dgriff13: That’s beautiful. You must have had one of those houses on the block all the kids want to visit on Halloween.
John: Clang! Tonight, for a snack, I ate some popcorn, and my wife ate cup ramen. How’s that for a pair of cultural signposts?

Chris, I can hear the tightening, but you have nothing to worry about as far as quality. I don’t notice any drop off in cripness from you computer generated strips. Yeah, the figurine is a little small to read as mr. Harvest, but doesn’t negatively affect the strip.

Thanks, Tom. I was generally pleased with the transition of the art to the computer. Or the Satan-box-ophone, as you call it.

Since the dawn of civilization the good thinking and all that is good are culture. It is complete picture of life. It represents what we do in our daily life. Language ,music,ideas about what is bad and good,ways of working and playing, and the tools and other objects made and used by people in the society-all these are part of a society’s culture.Cultures vary from society to society or country to country.
