The two birds then start bickering over whether it’s better to keep your wallet in your front pocket or your back one. Eventually it’s resolved that an inner breast pocket is the most ideal, and move on. Though where they’re going to find a place to purchase formal wear at this hour is anyone’s guess.
@werepixi : the image I now have of a crazy Digger nursing a living, sentient, evil Wallet and set of Keys with little shrivelled hairless wombat arms and legs growing out of them, and whispering in a creepy way “my babies, by beautiful beautiful babiiiiieeeessss!” is amongst the most disturbing I have had for quite some time, werepixi.
Well done! Eight out of ten! One internet to the next person to beat that with a horror image of a webcomic character (not counting Dave Hopkins: I’m not made of internets to give away you know)
Well, BR, somehow that spawned in my addled brain the memory of the scene from Alien Resurrection, where the crazy doctor is cocooned and watching the birth of the alien hybrid and calls it a “beautiful, beautiful butterfly”.
I leave it to you and El-ahrairant (apologies if I misspelled that) to untangle whatever tangle that makes with your current mental images …
But ‘real’ wombats are also rather horizontaly oriented… Since we’re so far from home who knows what the nursing/early life prodecures of the resident upright ones are. They may spend a lot of time in bed on their backs. And as rich as the backstory and socital development here is I doubt it’s going to come up
No, it’s metel bird for “Crap, I lost my wallet”

You have a somewhat twisted mind yourself, Eugene.
No wonder you like this comic so much.
😉
You don’t need formalwear for an inner breast pocket. Pockets are very useful, and need no excuse.
Another example of how wombats are more practical than humans (or hyenas) – they have built-in pockets 🙂
Only half of them.
The half of which Digger just so happens to be a part of! 😉
One to many “of’s” there, Raidell; but we get the point …
😉
Perhaps, but given that said pocket faces downwards while standing, it could be a rather inconvenient place to keep your keys.
kawkaw kawkaw I have her wallet. Kawkaw!
Wombat babies generally don’t fall out so i figure your keys and wallet are safe
I find Eugene’s comments to be almost as entertaining as the comic itself.
