The nautical strategy game Battleship is the subject of today’s strip, which produces inevitable results with our least stable character, General Bastid (who, as has been made clear in past strips, is not really that).

It would seem illogical to even initiate such a game with such a person, but maybe Meany was just feeling charitable, or wanting an easy victory. Who knows.

Updating around here continues, if at a slightly slower pace that we’d like. This might be the norm from now until a holiday is bestowed upon us; I’m lobbying for one specifically created for the purpose. Space Monkeys! Catch-Up Day, perhaps.

Maybe they could get that approved in Canada, at least.
