Is this the only comic that can be made about the Taliban without me getting my head cut off? Maybe, only time will tell, and I’ve heard time is being coy these days about telling us anything.

So yes! I am totally a dad now! Little Man is coming up to his third week of life, and his geopolitical opinions are a little rough around the edges. It’s ok, we have time to iron them out I’m sure. I had a whole lot of great gags written here but WordPress deleted it all. So this post is going to be much more brief.

Auckland just got it’s first lockdown in about a year due to someone walking in some Delta variant from Australia. Nice one guys I hope it was worth it. Although in all honesty I haven’t noticed any difference. I’ve been on paternity leave lockdown since Little Man was born. So my life has not been impacted at all.

Two fish are egging on a squid friend of theirs. The squid is gingerly using a rock to draw something on a surface.
“Come on, just do it.”
“This is wrong, guys.”
“Ah, don’t be a pussy!”

We see the three figures as tiny specks, swimming away.
“That wasn’t so bad, was it?”
“Guess not…”
We see that the creatures are heading away from a vast and sinister underwater city, R’lyeh by name, and in the centre of this city, lying as if in deep repose, is Cthulu.

He has awoken, after countless aeons, and has opened one baleful eye to stare after them. On his forehead is a cartoonishly drawn cock and balls.
