He’s talking about a commercial for Child blocks on TVs, a lady is like “Boys, I love watching your prison show, but I can’t let my kids seeing you shiv each other.” and one of the prison guys sitting there is like “Shank. It’s a verb. Y’know, to shank?”
It’s a hilarious commercial XD
Teeny shiv was able to get past the search. Larger shiv would’ve been found.
I’m also kinda sad (assuming everyone is correct) to find that JayJay is a snitch… :( Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised in the next few pages. ;)
Maybe it’s just a random search? Like searching Schtein’s cell before she turns him over to Kevin?
And if the Warden was able to recognize the object as a detonator, then logically, there would be explosives to go with them. Maybe JayJay’s not a snitch! *holds tightly to this hope*
Poor Schtein. Smashed into the wall twice… that’ll probably leave a mark. The detail you put in this page is excellent, and I especially like the composition in the fourth panel.
Never mind “where’s JayJay,” where’s *Krow?* Guy who’s been helping you with all your secret kaboomplans, who Beck has said before is a Not Nice Person and, who’s said himself that he’ll do whatever he’s gotta do to get by in there, that seems like a person to keep track of.
tiny, maybe… but this might not be just any tiny shiv. This is Dr. Schtein we’re talking about.
If there’s LSD, mercury, or some other agent on that tiny shiv, that guard might not be holding him against the wall for long.
First thing I thought was “poison” myself. Or maybe he smuggled in some nanomachines via Krow and now the guard is about to become his personal nanozombie slave!
Also a small shiv would be useful for cutting a throat or jabbing in an eye-socket, while still being easy to hide. Poison was the first thing I thought of too.
@Cryolisk. THAT WOULD BE THE AWESOMEST THING EVER. Also, some bio-warfare, like a foot activated switch that sprays the room with something the doc took an antidote for earlier – too much i guess.
But since Schtein should be able to get out (some people will cry if he fails), somebody might come help him any minute… Crow or JayJay? Hmm
Also, nothing badass about being a snitch, and awesome cut
Hah, it’s weird considering the content that all I can think of is how beautifully these pages are drawn and coloured.
Yeah, I saw more comments in that spirit.
The correct response is “Explosives? What explosives? I only made the detonator. For fun, see?”
That really is the tiniest shiv.
Wait is that a toothpick wrapped in duck-tape he’s using as a shiv…
I feel like the correct answer to “where are the bombs” is “what bombs” not “wouldn’t you like to know”
Or at least, “Wouldn’t you like to know? Because I would also like to know. There are bombs here, what?”
Boys, boys, if you tranq him, he won’t be able to tell you where the bombs are.
Yeah, but with him tranq’d and the detonator in the Warden’s hands, there’s no need to hurry.
Unless the detonator is a red herring and they’re on timers!! Ehhh, that’s probably too devious. He’s not that much of a supervillain yet.
Oh my yes. I’d love that.
It seems to me that Schtein’s gotten pretty adapted to prison life if he can get a shank past a patdown now.
It’s a shiv. Shank is the verb.
I’m not sure we should quibble over makeshift weapon grammar. Especially since you’re wrong. ;)

…Jay-Jay’s a bad guy, isn’t he…? I have this theory….that he been spyin’ on Schtien…That would be bad-ass.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Schtein you’re getting into worse and worse situations!!!

It did leave a mark! On the wall. D:
Looks like the wall will need therapy, then. It takes a while to recover from that sort of trauma. :0
Fine by me if it means we get to see those beautiful bruises Grundy does SO WELL.
this is getting too intense.
Oh gosh. o:
I feel like Krow would be a more likely snitch. He just has rat written all over his face.
If that were true, then why would he plant the bombs rather than hand them in? And if he did hand them in, why is the warden asking where they are?
hey, he can’t help his ratlike face, okay

Man, it might be small, but he really went for it. Right in the wrist and everything.
So much artistic progress! Argrafargleahhhhh! It’s amazing! Facial structure! Anatomy! Lighting! WOOOO!

You’re giving him too much credit I think, heh :D
Oh god, this page. THIS page. Such beautiful work with the composition, the colours and their expressions!
Obviously he got the tiny shiv past the check by hiding it in his glove!

Really doc? A hollowed out book?
He’s clearly been watching the Shawshank Redemption. ‘Salvation is within,’ and whatnot.
I like the Guard’s teeny weeny pencil mustache in the first panel. He’s like John Waters almost! :D
So awesome. But when I look at panel 3, I’m still imagining something like this.
When Schtein finally gets himself busted out, he is going to have the most bitchinest collection of concussions.
he should probably have his head checked. In multiple ways.
Wait, when did the doc chip his tooth?
check the comments on the last page, we’ve been over this. short answer is “when tattoo-head punched him.”
Go Doc. Go!!! show them what your made of.
Don’tcha just HATE when your shiv fails you?
obligatory non sequitur:
I think I just found Schtein’s teenage social handbook:
http://www.quickmeme.com/Pickup-Line-Scientist
Well ALLL RIGHT! YEAH!
Hilarious! and that guy’s smirk is perfect!
why is it every time i read the line where she asks Schtein were the bombs are, i hear a concerned motherly tone?
Damn, now I can’t read it any other way either.
Crap, he’s ruined the page for us :V
Might be tiny for a shiv, but it’s the perfect size for injecting someone…
I’ve a feeling JayJay is the snitch. He’s a Something Republic and hasn’t been executed, leniency in return for information?
Great Page! You’ve really hooked me on this comic! NEED MOAR e.o
Oh Jayjay you little shit
Man, Schtein keeps getting more and more hardcore.
Another hollowed-out book, doc? He uses that trick a lot, it seems…
Also hot dang the last couple of pages have been GORGEOUS. They always are, of course, but these recent ones really stand out somehow.
I was about to say when did he do that before, but then I remembered. Oh yeah. In his own apartment. This time it’s not to hide speed, though.
