Meet A Monster #3: Medusa Makeover

After Friday’s strip, I got some questions about Medusa in the planning meeting – as in why the two other committee members hadn’t turned to stone. At first I was thinking that because Vampire is undead, and Evil Future-Robot isn’t alive, then they’d be safe, but that logic would get tricky later on. So I read up on Greek mythology (Research, I know! I’m as surprised as you) and came up with this strip.

This will also be the last Meet-a-Monster Monday – now that Howie can finally go outside the house, thanks to the whole werewolf scheme, I can introduce characters in the main storyline. I may still do Meet-a-Monster strips from time to time because I think they’re useful for filling in character back stories, I’m just not going to lock them into Mondays anymore.

Tomorrow, discover more about the dietary habits of the adult male Skunk-Ape.
