Ah Lenny. And to save you from having to look it up “Porphyria’s Lover” was a poem by Robert Browning, in which her lover comes to visit her and strangles her with her own long hair.

The house I grew up in had a dirt-floor stone-wall cobweb-covered basement. And a sump-pump which always reminded me the animated Disney movie “The Rescuers.” Hated going down there.
I am terrified of horror, gore, or ghost stories. But sometimes I like to dabble in writing them.
Ha! I mentioned the sump in the blog a few strips ago, I’d forgotten I actually used it as the source of death. How funny! I mean, you know, funny in that death kind of way.
Even in freaky experiences, Bruno is enough at the core herself that she has to ask. I like that.
There’s that Shakespeare influence coming in, there’d always be a cock crowing after a midnight spectral guest.
I find that sometimes people (including myself) can be accidentally far too revealing when trying to be helpful.
It was REALLY fun drawing Stanley as a younger man. Hell, in general it was really fun to draw Stanley.
Symbolism in fiction can be broken up into two categories. One is based on societal preconceived ideas that the reader brings to the table, such as a four-leaf clover might mean luck. The other is based on things established within the story, such as the original Cinderella where her mother is buried under a weeping willow, and her fancy dress and such come from its branches.
I like the second kind. I like that this car carries a lot of weight of the relationship between Jay and Bruno.
