Apparently nobody thinks much of Tyrant’s abilities. Even I couldn’t resist getting a personal jab in there. LOL
Yes, it was Tiny. Congratulations to those of you who guessed correctly. Tiny was mentioned wayyyy back in #0299, but this marks the first time he’s ever been seen “on camera.” I’ll admit I did have some other possible triggermen in mind, but I’ll keep those to myself should I ever need to use one later in another plot twist.
I picture Tiny as kind of a cross between Verne Troyer and a rabid Jack Russell Terrier. For such a little guy, expect a him to be at the center of a lot of plots in the coming year. Now that this epic storyline has reached its climax, it’s on to #600 with a wink and a smile and I’m sure you’re all wondering how I can possibly top this. Well … 😉
I unapologetically present this last cheap joke at everyone’s expense before tomorrow, when I promise the true identity of Tyrant’s shooter will be revealed.
Quid pro quo, for those of you who’ve never seen Silence of the Lambs or Austin Powers, means essentially that for information received, information must be given in exchange. It’s, like, Latin.
Watch for a Very Important Announcement on Friday. Tell your friends. It’ll be a Big Deal.
I kind of like the existential aspect of the characters in the strip getting to meet their creator and discovering he’s just as flawed as them. For the record, though, I’d rather someone didn’t sacrifice any goats on my behalf.
