Daaaw!
Look, Armastus is having a bit of fun with his friend! Isn’t he adowable? (at this point, I think one begins to understand how he got in here in the first place)
As a sidenote: Let me guess, Schtein has decided to break out? Funny it took so long. *cue the music from “The Great Escape”*
No offense man, but it took you *this* long to understand how he got here in the first place? The gleeful reminiscing about driving nails into a guy’s legs didn’t clue you in?
Wait… you mean to tell me that driving nails into a guy’s legs is no longer considered socially acceptable behaviour? Why, sir, I’m shocked! Shocked and appalled at the decadence of our own society!
Oh, I long for those days when one could play polo with the severed heads of one’s enemies and no one would think any less of one’s character!
Whoa! Wow! Haha! What a rollercoaster of a strip that was!
First I was mildy amused, then I was depressed, then I was horrified, then I was intrigued, then I was horrified yet a second time, all in the space of five seconds! Bravo! Bravo, I say, Bravo!
Possibly the one of the best pages yet. I am liking Armastus more and more.
Also, I very much like Schtein in panel #6. Reminds me of some dictator or vampire somewhere.
I must ask, however, why is there so little shading on the Professor and the man who’se neck region he is biting? Is it so they’d stand out more starkly? I think it achieves that to some degree, but it also makes them look rather flat on a closer inspection.
Okay I don’t usually comment, but that needed to be said. I went from, “Aww, poor Krow” to wanting to strangle him to OH GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING in one page. Still, lots of good horrified disdain faces for Jayjay in this one.
I love the way the backgrounds reflect moods and emotions.
…And my face pulled an identical expression to Jacob’s when I saw that last panel. Oh my Jeegus, that’s the creepiest/scariest/ most disturbing thing I’ve ever seen!
It’s a good day for all! JJ gets weird out officially by everyone on in prison, Krow gets some attention, Schtein makes a dramatic decision and Armastus gets a snack :3 Good day. Good day.
Jayjay makes some of the best facial expressions in the whole comic. Funny how he’s the only one who isn’t a complete psychopath.
Love the colors on this page, you’ve somehow managed to harmonize vivid colors with heavy black shadows.
…Oh yeah, and Armastus is eating some guy.
Hey! This page is, sincerely, the most amazing page written.
On a side note, Beckey, what do you use to draw? I remember reading quite some time ago that you used OpenCanvas, but do you still? And a tablet too, as well, I assume? What type?
I’m totally not trying to stalk you. It’s just that you have awesome drawing skills and I wish I could draw that well with any program.
Why do I get the sense this wasn’t some random encounter? Phineas was called the warden’s “red right hand” for a reason, so I bet he does this kind of thing often, and gets away with it when he does it on his own time too.
Cannibalism — good end to a good Friday. Thanks for posting. <3 I like that you update when you finish instead of leaving off until the next Wednesday. It's like a surprise! A… a dramatic, cannibalistic surprise…
Oh I like how you develop your plots and characters. It’s like per plot segment it starts out really fucking subtle like you’re just enjoying the scenery, it’s a cozy ride then BAM hey guess what guys SOME ACTION and it’s so intense. And then you look back, and you see how it all unfolded into that moment. I feel like this reply is doing no justice but yeah I really do think how you put things down tangible is fascinating, and the emotion evoked is really personable?
Also I really like how you brought out Krow’s development. A few pages ago people were cooing, poor Krow. But now you totally hit us with this mack truck of emotion, and it’s fairly clever how you put it in. Not saying you were covering your ass, but you put that bit of information in a VERY good spot that would protect the integrity of the page from a lot of negative attention. It was abrupt, in the middle of a really quick paced conversation so some people might not even see it, and before it could /really/ sink in, you had two reactions that weren’t even to that: Schtein and Phineas. Beckey you’re such a lovely comic artist I look forward to your pages every week 6_______9
I wonder if Schtein will remember what his decision was after that interruption. I don’t think I would. Also, AWESOME sense of timing, Beckey. Really impressive page.
Oh god zombie Armastus
“Oh hey New String Theory.
Oh shit.
OH SHIT!
AAAAAAUUUUUUGHH!!!!”
My exact reaction XD
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Aaand now I won’t be sleeping for the next few hours, thanks Phineas. Don’t want that nightmare fuel in my brain… :shiver:
way to ruin a dramatic announcement, Professor.
phineas’d!
Daaaw!

i went from chuckling at lovedovey schtein to being vaguely creeped out to OH SHIT JESUS CHRIST
theeeeese guys. they belong there.
and on a second glance, krow what pretty eyes you have!
Whoa! Wow! Haha! What a rollercoaster of a strip that was!
First I was mildy amused, then I was depressed, then I was horrified, then I was intrigued, then I was horrified yet a second time, all in the space of five seconds! Bravo! Bravo, I say, Bravo!
And originally in the script this page was merged with the previous page. Can you imagine?
Possibly the one of the best pages yet. I am liking Armastus more and more.

Simple: I forgot! :C
I seem to have forgotten to do a lot of things on this page. Better fix all the mistakes tomorrow.
the colors on this page, the colors! I-I’m speechless. this entire page shows that comics can be masterpieces.
Oh no, Armastus! How will you be able to creep on Schtein from solitary confinement? D:
this page seems to be a full effin’ rainbow. Weird! Usually I’m all about two tone color schemes because color is hard. :X
How did Jayjay even get into this comic! He seems to be a decent human being, he’s attractive, he’s basically normal as far as I know. Poor guy.
No wonder they were shock Doc survived!
Armastus is good at showing affection, it seems. If he likes/is interested in you or thinks you are funny, you live. If not – OM NOM NOM.
Biting – it’s like hugging, only there’s a winner.
This has made my day! XD
AUUUGH.
Okay I don’t usually comment, but that needed to be said. I went from, “Aww, poor Krow” to wanting to strangle him to OH GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING in one page. Still, lots of good horrified disdain faces for Jayjay in this one.
And y’know, they say once prisoners lose their bite inhibition, there’s no going back. He’ll be biting people left and right.
The last two panels are great.
Doc “Hey guys, check out how dramatic I can look.”
JJ and Krow “Whaaaaat The FUUUUUUUUUU-” ARMASTUS’D
holy shit
I love the way the backgrounds reflect moods and emotions.
…And my face pulled an identical expression to Jacob’s when I saw that last panel. Oh my Jeegus, that’s the creepiest/scariest/ most disturbing thing I’ve ever seen!
was your idea “i shall now soil my pants!!”?
I have a feeling we’ve turned a corner , into crazy-town :D
One could also say that we’re going off the rails on a crazy train.
Also: Jesus tapdancing Christ, Phin.
OHMYGOODNESS O.O
goddamnit, armastus, schtein was talking >:(
I honestly was not expecting that to happen, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. Of Phineas, you CHARMER.
“That’s it! I’ve made a decision! I’m getting the fuck away from this table!”
such pretty colors on this page!
It’s a good day for all! JJ gets weird out officially by everyone on in prison, Krow gets some attention, Schtein makes a dramatic decision and Armastus gets a snack :3 Good day. Good day.
I’ve made a decision. We will all have KFC for dinner tonight….OK, lets just get a salad.
Well THAT’S a conversation stopper. How awkward…
Jayjay makes some of the best facial expressions in the whole comic. Funny how he’s the only one who isn’t a complete psychopath.

…Oh yeah, and Armastus is eating some guy.
YAAAAAAAAY!!
Zombie!Phineas will fit PERFECTLY into my collection of avatars!! \o/ I shall wait until you ‘fix’ the page to make it though.. :3
With all the contamination out there, I can’t imagine those inmates taste good. Do they?
Damn, what the hell, Kr–oh god phineas oh god aaaaaahhh
Such pretty colors here though. I dig those greens.
I dig the reds.
Well, at least he’s eating at a table.
Manners first. :)
Down fido! Daddy was talking!
Auuugh son of a-I JUST SPIT WATER EVERYWHERE!!!
AAAAAUGH IT’S ALL OVER EVERYTHING MY POOR COMPUTER AAAAAAH PHINEAS WHYYYY
Even when telling his horrible origin story, Krow is overlooked.
Hah!
YOU WERE SAYING, SCHTEIN?
Oh man, I laughed way harder than I should have at that last panel. Phineas has a nice set of chompers on him.
Also, you do a great job of making otherwise empty backgrounds visually interesting. I especially like the Kirby dots in the next to last panel.
Ummmm…
they’re just playing.
It’s true! I mean just look at how much fun Phineas is having!
Are we ever going to find out who Jayjay pissed off to get in to this prison?
I love EVERYTHING ON THIS PAAAAGE lkjsakjhaskdgaaaaggghhhhhh ;A;
Phineas is foreeevvveeerrrr

Schtein: “I’ve made a decision!”
Phineas: *Surprise cannibalism for the win!*
Me: “WHAT THE CUSS JUST HAPPENED!”
Cannibalism — good end to a good Friday. Thanks for posting. <3 I like that you update when you finish instead of leaving off until the next Wednesday. It's like a surprise! A… a dramatic, cannibalistic surprise…
Yeah, I’m late a lot of the times, but I REALLY REALLY REALLY hate actually legit missing an update. The story moves slow enough already. >:P
I usually only miss updates if I am actually sick or out of town or something.
i like phineas’s hair like that
he should try to style it so it’s that way even when he’s not swooping down to bite people
I wonder if the dressings on Phineas’ arms from him getting bored and mutilating himself.
you’re close.
Oh I like how you develop your plots and characters.

Oh go, I love how JJ and Krow notice Armastus’s fun and games before Schtein does! It’s like some kind of comedy-horror… horredy?
Glad I’m alone, because I screamed out loud. Which is damn impressive for a static medium!!
i was reading and i was like, “Huh. So is Krow like a serial rapist/killer or something,” and then i was like, “WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-“
He can’t NOT look aghast at that!!
His heart’s gonna be in trouble if this keeps up.
I wonder if Schtein will remember what his decision was after that interruption. I don’t think I would. Also, AWESOME sense of timing, Beckey. Really impressive page.
