Oh well, you can always count on my scanner to reinterpret things. The actual comic was a lot funnier than I thought it would be. Which just goes to show how stupid it is to have preconceptions in the completely random world of mini comics, I guess. I figured that a comic based on two blobs would mean that the artists couldn&#8217;t draw their way out of the proverbial paper bag and that their storytelling skills probably wouldn&#8217;t be far behind. Happy to say that I was way off. This was a collection of shorter stories and the funny parts were actually funny. What more can you ask for? Oh, and if you&#8217;re wondering, you can tell the two blobs apart because they have their corresponding letters on their bodies. And Scuzzball is a real prick, making the letters unnecessary, mostly. Stories in here include Scuzzball corrupting Fuzzball&#8217;s gay friend, their (the two main characters, that is) quest for an evil totem, and Scuzzball corrupting a nun. It&#8217;s $3 and mostly funny, so feel free to <a href=\"mailto:leightonc@mindspring.com\">e-mail<\/a> the folks responsible and check it out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/fuzzball2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"363\" height=\"604\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Fuzzball and Scuzzball! #1 Ew, that&#8217;s not that color of the cover.
