It is a Cricket equipment maintenance tool. Google "Squid Bat" if you don't believe me.

Heh, I was going to bump' this back to the main page, it seems to have disappeared...  Was just messin' around, and decided to read the whole comic backwards, and strangely enough, it makes as much sense going that way... More foreshadowing, but hey... |

Hurrah! The Fun-Sized Mobile Agony and Death Dispensers are back... This should be enjoyable.

There are 21 known functional FSMADDs in the story. Eighteen of them are in this room. Only one question remains.
Miss Agatha, can I ride the red one? Please?

It's the facial expressions that make today's strip- especially Agatha's huge grin and the "Oh shi-" look on the robotdeathkitty at the bottom.

Was slightly distressed to hear the Professora Foglio was in the hospital. Hope it's not serious...

La Professora has had a chronic digestive condition for a long time, and it flares up from time to time. I'm sure she appreciates all the kind wishes, but this is, sadly, a fairly regular occurrence. Last word is she is back home, on a restricted diet again.
Meanwhile, who else thinks Violetta is going to be dodging Devil Dogs on a swinging lantern until the control break is fixed?

IIRC - three have been destroyed so far, so that would total up quite rightly... |

Or maybe not. I have stopped trying to predict any "next move," because the Foglios always come up with something different, more interesting, and funnier than I can imagine. |

Looks like the double agent-turned-minion is... not changing. Tiktoffen is still siding with the group with the largest gun. Surprise.
(Now why is that so very surprising, but still totally reasonable?! FOGLIOOOOOOOS!

While I applaud your efforts in making Steampunk literature more widely available, I would appreciate you keeping advertising in the appropriate topics. Your scattergun approach is fast beginning to look like spam.
I shall feel obliged to bring any recurrence to the attention of the moderators. Please desist.
Thank you.

Never mind...I do offer my apologies to all concerned. This will be the last post on the Forum, and the Site. You've all been very kind, but I've evidently overstayed my welcome. Goodbye, and have fun.

Goodbye, and have fun. Apologies, Pakled. My post was aimed at Pax Britannia, who had posted after you. It appears that the moderators agree that some of his posts were spam, as the inappropriate ones have now been removed. Sadly this makes it look as if my post, and those immediately following, are aimed at you. I assure you that this is most definitely not the case. I suppose I should have quoted his post, but I didn't want to repeat his advertising spam. In future I shall try to remember to make it clear at whom my ire is directed. I have tried to PM you as 'Pakled', but the system doesn't seem to want to let me. A PM has therefore been sent to 'Pakled05'. Sorry for the upset, and please stay with us. Bellinger. |

It was not our intention to cause any offense or to "spam" the forums, we we’re just attempting to make members aware of our attempts to award Steampunk literature to loyal fans and bloggers. We apologize for any inconvenience and would ask you not to allow this incident to detour you or discourage our loyal and dedicated fans from reading Pax Britannia in the future.
Many Thanks
