Cue The Dodecabots’ catchy 80’s intro theme! Yeah! Just feel those synths!

106. Dead Kings
Past me has really been on point lately – here’s the verbatim news post that accompanied this strip back in 2007:
“Lord knows where this week’s strip came from. It popped into my head while I was shopping in Tesco and singing ‘The Great Pretender’ (not an Elvis song, I know). Anyway, it means the Satellite Girl gets the last word in the regular series, which is kind of nice since she was the one who got the ball rolling in the first place. Next week: Violence beyond reason and the end of the way that was.”
4.1. Missing Parts
So in case you were wondering, the informational superstructure that underpins reality? Its basically just Tetris.
105. Funny?
Okay, so here’s the news post past me wrote about this strip back in 2007:
“This is the 105th Brain Fist strip, which is a milestone of sorts as it means every character in the series has had exactly 15 strips told about them. Next week one lucky character gets a sixteenth strip all to themselves (haven’t decided who yet) and then we’re into the final seven – a series of double-sized strips to see out the end of the series and bring a little closure to proceedings. Who lives? Who dies!? Find out soon!”
Thanks for building the hype, past me. Onward to the end times!
3.6. A Technicality
That tiny flash in panel two? That’s the last little bit of crime being removed from reality. It was mostly unpaid parking tickets.
104. Harem
A classic theological conundrum.
3.5. Mighty Warriors
All credit to my wife for coming up with “Apple Cyphers” as a drink name. Thanks, baby!
103. Sights Seen
It’s important to take pleasure in the little things. And also occasionally the larger explosions.
3.4. What A Shoal
I think making up transformer names might be my new favourite pass time.
102. Cat Future
A somewhat naive point of view from past-me reflected in this strip. As most Cat “owners” will tell you, cats obviously are already in charge, and have been for some time.
