Endtown by Aaron Neathery for February 12, 2018

Unamused chicken is unamused.

Not too much need for a food critic in a town that subsists on canned beans. Just sayin’.

We may have just met our new Editor, and it ain’t Penny.

I think all of the wolves are too scared to stick their heads out for fear that a security rat may cut it off. However, they do not have enough brains to lay low for a while. Somebody is using the wolves as a scapegoat for some unknown agenda.

This story arc is making the lizard colony make more sense.

To be honest, I wasn’t expected this humor lol.

“Okay, I didn’t want to bring this up, but we’ve all seen your Fanfic.net page. You’re probably the best writer we have!”

(Next Day’s Headline) “Jackrabbit & Foxworthy Secret Romamce! This Time The Prey Caught The Preditor!”

you are not a chicken, you are human, remember that

Unknown to most and unknown to mostly others…..our newest character is the famous, the legendary, the irrepressible Col Sand…….errrrr…….SUPER CHICKEN!!!! He was just minding his own business disguised as a low level reporter for Endtown. Then he geard his battle call…….BUC BUC BACAW. Soon he will spring into action and do something un-chickenly heroic! Stay tuned kids for the next episode! Brought to you by Beans…..when you care the least.

Speciesism rears its ugly head.

I think being a food critic is a poultry excuse to not allow someone to be an editor. It’s not like they’d run a-fowl of being bias; except against pineapple on pizza. Hen you think about it, it just makes a lot of flock’ing sense.

OK. I gotta say it. Someone’s feathers are getting ruffled.

There’s that book again—-“New Lands.” Who was reading it before?

“Just so you all know…, that was the WORST mating call I’ve ever heard!”

If they wanted to share the duties, they wouldn’t be dumping it on you!

Them’s fighting words!

I’m wondering if he’s rooster enough to have spurs.

“What-I say—what in the everlovin’ world are y’all goin’ on about? Listen to me! I’m not talkin’ just to move the air around. Y’all are fixin’ to make me mad —-angry, that is.” Or maybe he’s not a leghorn.

In a town that’s already eating its pork-like residents, can chickens be far behind?

Looks like that poultry’s in a fowl mood. If he took the job would he pressed chicken? Where’s Henry Cabot Henhouse the III when you need him? That bird has a rapier sharp wit and a valet who has escaped from the game show What’s My Lion.

New Lands is the second book in the Chronicles of Egg series. Maybe there’s a clue in the about the missing pigs. But, which came first?

“no respect I tell ya …”

“You get the Super Sauce, and I’ll get the Super Suit!”

Fowl they cried!

Fowl they cried!

Looks a bit like Lou Grant… ;-)

Have a pleasant Valentine’s, Mr. Neathery.
