    ST. CHARLIE?!?

    I will admit I didn’t expect Vicka to be back

    Oh dear! At least Vicka’s happy. XD

      I’m more impressed Tip is keeping that promise to try and remember that women have names.

    The fun thing about this strip is to the initiated every line is disconnected and nonsensical but the delivery is such that in some context the people involved seem to believe it makes sense. And to the initiated most but not all of it does. But what doesn’t doesn’t surprise us.

    Well, if I had to make a wild guess… Tip didn’t win in those three moves 😉

      Most any other time he would consider that outcome a win.

    …well…
    …a psychologist.

    Can I just say how much this I hope this arc ends with Tip/Artie part II, (the squeakquel!)

    unless we count “a stitch in time”. Then I’m hoping for part III

      “Stitch in Time” is part 1 1/2

    (TUNE: “Garden Party”, Ricky Nelson)

    I started in California,
    And ended up in bed
    With Vicka there, with the sapient hair
    Living on her head!

    The gerbil who steals my mojo
    Is giving me the creeps!
    But Vicka said when she needs some aid,
    She just asks her peeps!

     Something’s … not right, now!
     A case of mojo theft!
     For I … must free Ginny Lee,
     And there’s … only one move left!

      Do they make people peeps?

        Well assuming the stuff in this link isn’t all photoshopped, it would appear that people have made practically everything with peeps (most of them are peep bunnies, but Batman and Robin appear to be people).

    In any other case where two characters are lying half-naked in bed and one essentually says “Oh, hey, I know who you are,” there’d be a bit more drama…

      I think he’s waving in the first panel; that spike isn’t in any of the others.

        It never looks the same in any of the panels. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s in constant flux.

    As of today, “A gerbil is stealing my mojo” is totally my new go-to explanation for when things don’t go my way.

      I’d buy that T shirt but it need a base form Artie on it as well.

    The marshmallow people aren’t much help until they get a bit stale and firm up.
    Seriously, Artie has perfected mojo judo, redirecting the force of Tip’s mojo moves. That’s a bit disturbing on many levels.
    Still, Vicka and St. Charlie’s were both amazing twists. In the panel yesterday, you couldn’t recognize her from her distinctive hair.

    When gerbils start messin’ with your mojo, it’s *always* personal.

    We haven’t actually seen Artie in gerbil form at any point in Skin Horse, have we?

      No, I’m pretty sure we haven’t.
      What’s more, Helen gave him the man!Artie-form, but isn’t it possible that he figured out how to achieve other human forms? Couldn’t that be him now?

        Hmm, maybe Tip was able to make Artie hiccup….

    Fang is looking quite relaxed compared to [his/her/its/??] previous appearance:

    Does this count as one or two on Tip’s scorecard?

    Woot, after a truly epic archive binge, I am all the way out.

    Well . . . , at least this couldn’t be considered a complete loss.

    Serious setback, perhaps, but not without (ahem) benefits.

    Maybe Vicka can lend him some madtech that might help him when he finds his way back.

    All I have to say is does this count as threesome?

    Given that this is St. Charlie, that statement is most likely completely grounded in reality.

    Speaking of which, which St. Charles is St. Charlie named after? I’ve been looking, and none of them seem to really click.
