Far Out There

“Meh, not too bad… I GUESS.” Heck, she didn’t even get DIRTY, and I’m not sure that’s possible!

Now, this page presented a bit of a challenge. Aside from the fact that bloody dismemberment isn’t really something you normally see in a Christmas story (at least, not the ones I know), this is SUPPOSED to be a rated E comic. I’ve never been good at gauging how much violence it too much for squeamish folks, so it was a bit tough working out how much gore was enough to make the page work without bumping the rating up. I THINK this did it, though I REALLY had to hold back.

(Historical Notes: First off, I’d totally forgotten that Drunk Duck actually had ratings for all the comics.  Second, there’s some infuriated hipster reading this and preparing a rant about how Die Hard totally counts as a Christmas story.  Third, the ACTUAL Christmas story involves a lot of dead babies if you go far enough into the epilogue, so some ravenous bloodbeasts should barely even register as a problem.)
