This is the best strip Achewood has had yet. I only regret that Lemmy's too busy to take on his mayoral duties, and frankly it's causing Drinkin' Island to lose tourist traffic to Girls Gone Wild Island.

I figured every branch would end on the blackout box if that is indeed what it is. After drinking island there would be a huge tangle of decision lines that get denser and denser and ends on the box. And then a box that says "inspect vomit for matchbox cars."

Yes! It sucks so much that no one else realizes this! You have no idea how much it pisses me off when I hear some doucherag start going on about "the good old stuff like the black album". God damn shitty arena blues rock is what that is.

I think this is my favorite flowchart of the three so far. It expands on what we already know about Lyle's character, and it does it so well that you're seriously in a tough spot not to laugh out loud watching him go to Drinkin' Island.

Lyle is my favorite character. He knows how to live.
Honestly, yes. Onstad's description of Lyle's actions (especially "Two scoundrels got fresh with a chain-smoking trailer-pixie who later attacked them when they said that her arms were all skinny like a tall dog's leg") have the ugly, measured cadence of a Tom Waits rap. I can hear him practically snarling "It's Jacks pint night at the Scow and I ain't want to get booted." Sort of like a Southern Shan Macgowan maybe, with more teeth in his face and more piss in his pants.
The Pogues would indeed make a great soundtrack to so much of Achewood. You are Correct.
(Right now in my brain is running certain of the mass-brawling strips of the GOF arc to the tune of "Turkish Song of the Damned." Ace.)
