I thought that it existed so that the reader could know who was speaking, placing Roast Beef. It doesn't really matter who is speaking on the left, but it is important that the reader knows that it is Beef's story.

a) In that panel alone, the reader finds out that there's at least 3 characters, and they're hiding in the dark. It sets up the gag for the one-time reader and ties into the previous strip for the devotee.
b) That panel is the one thing saving this strip from having no drawings whatsoever. It's arguable that aside from the bold lexicon and devil-may-care syntax of Achewood, the best part is the aesthetic genius of the strip. In particular, I find that facial expressions are one of the more frequent topics discussed on AcheWorld

I like how Ray won't put the cigarette because it was a " kind of expensive" brand - it didn't even have to be straight-out expensive for him to keep smoking it. Classy?

I don't know about spelling out the name in smoke (though if you could do it with anything you could do it with a name like Ray) but it wouldn't be hard to steady the ashtray with your free hand. It's probably on her back or thereabouts anyway.

This strip demonstrates how great the dialogue is in Achewood, since you can almost always tell exactly which character is speaking, even if you can't see him.

So Cornelius is definitely here, since only he would say the first line. Obviously Vlad too, and Todd is the one with the stutter. "Didja" sounds like something Lyle would say, so he could also be the one yelling to kill the light, or that could be Teodor.
