Can't Chase Me Here

Space Graffiti

Yeah, it's a shame they don't make that flavor anymore. It was my favorite thing about the seventies.

Pants you bastard.

…I have no idea what's being said in this page. Reone's the one who related this lil' flashback. He just gave me the letters… Knowing him, it probably says something like… Well, on the off chance that anyone out there recognizes this language, I'd like to disclaim anything it translates to, whatever it translates to. Those are not my words.

I do recognize the letters in panel four… a little… …I think they're from the Yaya language. (He's speaking a totally different language in panel four, though.) He's explained that the Yaya Qua customarily draw a beak next to their written words, so drawing a snout is… a joke… I guess?

…But for a lot of reasons, this page really feels, like no page previously has, like PHAYRH. It's like- "Yeah, this is what I saw myself doing with this." …Though, true to form, it's probably difficult to tell what's going on. I see myself, someday, pulling all these threads of experience, real and vicarious, together into something other people can understand as well as I do. But at the same time… I don't.
