Not necessarily the best way to start off a topic, but I was flipping through this past week's Weekend Web, when halfway down THIS page, I saw something strikingly familiar. Anyone recognize it?

Holy fuck, it's Ghastly!

Let's just hope the weekend web never finds this place.

The guy with the pipe. He writes (or used to write) Ghastly's Ghastly Comic. He's somethng between a Keenspace legend and a favorite perverted uncle around here.

He's not the only forumite on SA. See if you can find some others!

I dunno, this place is pretty mild and tame compared to other places.

Not to threadjack, but speaking of other places, did you know that a character named Evan-Li is playing a major role in a chapter of JACK just now?

Heh, yeah. Spooky, huh? And how come you don't post there anymore? Net and Jim pop up there sometimes.[/thread jack]

No time. Work got busy, and at home, I'm in relax mode. I had time for one big group of forums, and I picked ComicGenesis. :)

Besides, I write to Hopkins sometimes. He's even responded. I have a few of his originals, and one he did just for me for $35 once upon a time. I've really gotta get some frames...

A) It would not surprise me in the least if Ghastly posted in forums that would end up being on the weekend web feature.

B) I also wouldn't be surprise if that actually weren't ghastly, but someone using his photo as an avatar. The post itself doesn't really sound like Ghastly. I could be wrong though.

Doubt it's the real Ghastly. He would call himself Ghastly.

So... It's a forum for people who're sexually atrracted to fat people, right?
Ghastly did a comic about pretty much all sorts of sexual fetishes, right?
And said comic had no fat people in it, right?

Conclusion: It's probably not the real Ghastly.

(edit: Or maybe it is, and there's just something he has been keeping a secret from us... ;) )

I agree.

Or . . . disagree? Wait, I've confused myself now.
