Well, kitsune show up sometimes, and those are foxes with nine tails.

Well, I did the last resort thing and asked Gont what was the deal with 'Yi-Kon!'. His response:
It's a version of Kiiii-YAAAAAA!

Also note that, in Manga/Anime as well as places like Tsunami Channel, 'KON!' is used to denote a fox's bark. So instead of Bark! or Wolf!, it's Kon!

*blinks*... dayamn, we could have had a 'WOLF!' here!
How often do fox show up in anime or manga? not much, that I've encountered. I think he's using some Furry Fandom glossary...

(Actually, it's the Ducktales theme in Finnish)

It...doesn't look that good. Offers the opportunity of a rousing game of Count the Cliches. There was one part I liked though, and it has to do with grass.

"Yi-kon" means nothing in Japanese, either regular or giongo (sound effects and such), that I have been able to find. In fact, "Yi" isn't a regular Japanese syllable. Ya, yu, and yo are, but not yi and ye.

Actually, the B-cup Scarlet in the last panel is better looking than the usual udder-sporting version. However, in the first panel she looked like she'd just walked into a pencil sharpener.

Note that Scarlett has abruptly gone all B-cup.

Well, she is a product of mad science, after all. Since they're unlikely to be functional mammary glands, perhaps they act as a hydraulic fluid reservoir which empties slightly during high demand.

Or they're backward airbags.

Or his nibs couldn't figure out how to draw the panel and keep the giant tits. Which I guess means he's a slightly less consistent artist than Rob Leifeld, or at least slightly less dedicated to giant tits.

According to Google (and I only went 2 pages in), "yi-kon" has something to do with Asian jewelery stores. One Korean site translates it as "earth-fire," which sounds like a Kung Fu method in a bad movie.
Another site:
"Yikon tea is watered by melted ice and snow, and the chemical fertilizer"
Fertilizer? That follows!

While simple logic who lead one to believe that she's beating up 2 different people, I think that she clomp!ed the first guy with Open-Fist style Fertilizer Kung Fu, then whammo!ed the same guy by using the same hand...backwards 'n' shit. Somehow. Her Fertilizer Fu is strong!

She's cleverly thrown the gun into Lisa "Left-Eye" Retail Clerk's hands, so as to totally mess up any fingerprints on it. And possibly get shot by her. Given her left eye's glaucoma or whatever, that has a pretty good chance of happening.

Davey:
"What can I say? We've reached a milestone, people"

One can only wonder what THAT meant. Does he mean he hit 50 strips before something actually happened?
Maybe it was supposed to be spelled "millstone."

Note that Scarlett has abruptly gone all B-cup.

And that Davey still claims that this comes under the heading traditional drawing.

Speaking of cheese, New Scarlet
FIFTY strips on and we finally get some non-talking.
Oh my. As if weird onomatopoeia in ENGLISH was bad enough, now he's moving onto...Japanese? WTF does 'YI-KON!' mean??
To whom is La Scarlet referring in the last panel? She's gonna go postal on the poor shopgirl, who's now holding a gun? or the other mugger... who presumably is also holding a gun and hasn't shot her by now?

We DO have american cheese. it ain't competition for all the wacky local cheeses, though.

What would you do? Carry Big Brother on your hip for $20?

TOTALLY. they sell all sorts of wacky stuff outside our campus. Basilisk lizard plushies, cat shaped pottery, and books at $1. the original James Bond novels are INSANE.

Ernst, that Utah thing is absolutely scary. at least there were no casualties.

Hoo, boy. Get your sense of moral outrage ready, gang-- here's a little something to go along with Bill's mention of Cheney's America in the news:

Helicopters, assault rifles, tear gas, camouflage -wearing soldiers.... why?

[edit: Like a bunch of flowers, there's a big 'B' in 'Bill'. Sorry.]

negs:Not much good for you in pasta & cheese, and I'd ahve to DDR my poor little feet off to burn away all the extra fat calories.
I always got the half-fat variety myself. Yeah, it's still not very good for you and I didn't eat it often, but still yummers...

I always describe "Event Horizon" as the thing Clive Barker dreamed after watching "Alien".

We have the thing known to some as American cheese here, but by law it's labelled (no lies) Cheddar Flavour Processed Cheese Food Slices. This mouthful is repeated in French, of course. I have not knowingly eaten any since I tried to use it like real cheese for a meal in 1986.
Kraft Mac n Cheese
or, Kraft Dinner, as it's known this side of the border. Avoids the clumsy labelling.

Oh, I have fond memories of that stuff too. Yes, the cheese needs to be liquid (well, semisolid). The powdered stuff is just nasty tasting. I don't eat it often 'cause, well, I read nutrition labels. Not much good for you in pasta & cheese, and I'd ahve to DDR my poor little feet off to burn away all the extra fat calories. 8^p

Hey, I am not one to deny a bit of comfort food crap now and again. I developed a fondness for Kraft Mac n Cheese while over there - the deluxe ones, with the sauce in a liquid form in a pouch.
Mmmmmm....:)~

American cheese is pretty blah. The one thing it's good for is grilled cheese sammitches. Which I hardly ever have, but, y'know, sometimes you just feel like eating some real crap.

Oh, and American cheese is also fun to fold. It splits and you can make shapes with it. That's the real reason lids like it. You can get some baloney and American cheese and do art projects with your lunch.

No Bill, thankfully we are spared that orange plastic crap that calls itself 'American cheese'. We have plastic cheese too (Kraft singles), but it's ordinary, less-alarming yellow.
Luckily, Australia also makes some awesome cheeses..oooh, King Island cheeses. So bad for you(pure cream content), yet so goooooood....
