#813 Side Effects...

I think the list of side effects is really what sold him on it. Vic is a mean brother!
Zerlocke having to clean up the mess reminded Nick of the Futurama episode where they try to market "Popplers" and find out they're delicious babies, and a horrified Leela drops the baby Poppler and reflexively licks all her fingers because it's so tasty. Yeah, that's what I was going for, only Zer's just slightly more panicked because he's trying to get Vic on his side.
And yes, Vic just is that tall. I think I posted somewhere he's like 7 feet tall (or 6 feet 10-11 inches give or take) and maybe Zerlocke is playing up his shortness to garner a little sympathy, but he's not much different from the last time the two were in the same page. Maybe it was me playing up dramatic angles that made it seem so severe though too, oh well!

Voters today see 2 panels without the text bubbles and other art over them, especially the penultimate panel where Zer's other hand is covered up. He looks like a total dweeb!
