Monty by Jim Meddick for October 30, 2011

I think Monty may have soiled himself.

Monty should know better than to wear a Red tunic.

Is that Brad in panel 1 or a guy in a Brad costume?

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!And when I read it all again, I noticed Pilsener.

Monty is at the party as Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard, Moondog is at the party as a pirate (with the assistance of Pilsner, sort of), and Brad is the party as Brad the zombie. Love the Red Death costume!

Love it!!

Too bad Monty wasn’t dressed up as Riker … Then we could say “Number 1 did a Number 2 in his pants.”

Ay-Yeeee!!

I love how Pilsner is falling asleep in panels 3, 4, 5 during Monty’s story. The “Snirt” is panel 4 is a classic.

Picard wearing glasses? Must be a costume.

I like Red Death’s costume hands.

Pilsner says it all-SNORT!!!

When my grandmother was a young girl her father was a plantation supervisor in the Arkansas Delta. One of the old workers died, and there was a wake in his shack that night. My great-grandfather went to pay his respects, and as everyone was gathered inside in the dark, the door creaked open and the silhouette of a person could be seen. A deep, slow voice said, “I am the Devil, and I have come for this man.” People screamed and jumped out of the window until my great-grandfather and this “devil” were the only ones left. It turned out to be a prank by another worker; he had to speak slowly so his stuttering wouldn’t give the joke away. Since someone had to remain with the body my great-grandfather had to stay in the shack for the rest of the night, and he made that worker stay with him. For the rest of his life that worker refered to himself as “Devil”, and that’s what my grandmother called him in her stories.

Monty, calm down and get yourself a cup of “tea, Earl grey, hot”.

And when the mask was pulled away, Monty’s battery was dead.
