Swan Eaters by Georgia Dunn for January 22, 2020

Oh, I don’t think you really want to do that. No one has even heard you yet, so it’s not too late.

(Why do they never listen?)

I think Olwen will care – and you boys will want that interest even less than Wiggy’s.

Guys, guys, you know the old adage! “Look before you leper!”

Is this the same town where the people were so nice?

I have a real bad feeling about this. Pass the popcorn, please. Heh, heh, heh.

Let’s not forget, Winnie is incoming. Whatch’all bet there is a convergence of heroes at the watering hole tonight? There’s still time to back out, Peckerwood Boys. Leave now while you still can.

Oh, this is going to be FUN :))

Well, I won’t care about 3 missing dipsh*ts…… (make sure the popcorn gets to this end of the row, please.)

I really hope nobody talks them out of visiting the waterhole tonight. Of course, I’d like CAMERA ONE to be there. Fiona’s got a good point—Winnie’s on his way—he can clean up whatever Wiggie leaves.

the question is: will hunters find our bodies some time in the future?

Somehow that blonde kid reminds me of Draco Malfoy.

This is how “Haunted Woods” begin.

Whatever they are planning involves her becoming a “Missing Traveler”? Wow, this situation went from bad to pitch black evil in three panels. Whatever Wigglesworth does to them will be well deserved. They are so awful that they deserve whatever Olwen would do to them…which would probably be waaaay worse than whatever Wigglesworth is capable of. He can probably only do physical violence.

This story line is getting dark.

Shrug. Nod. Grimace. Arm fold. Occipital plate scratch.

Okay, that who’s going to care about a missing traveler bit by itself speaks volumes even without adding the leper to it. These three need to be thrown into a prison showers with a three hundred fifty pound guy named Bubba who hasn’t had a conjugal visit in ten years. Have Bubba do to them what they have in mind to do to Vesper.

Kinda felling sorry for Mr. Wigglesworth, though. Not because their thinking about killing him (as if they could do so easily), but because I fear he’s about to reveal the truth to Vesper. How will she react to his having lied to her for so long?

Nice variation on “What could possibly go wrong?”

“Karma, party of 3!”

I would not recommend messing with Mr. Wigglesworth kids!

♫ ♪♪♫ I see the bad moon a-rising

I see trouble on the way

I see earthquakes and lightnin’

I see bad times today

Don’t follow her tonight

Well, it’s bound to take your life

There’s a bad moon on the rise

I hear hurricanes a-blowing

I know the end is coming soon

I fear rivers over flowing

I hear the voice of rage and ruin
