CHAPTER 8 - PAGE 04
(Transcript and visual captions below}

      Jack couldn't help but listen to the kids' creepy conversation. Even though he could choose to focus on the words of anyone in the club if he wanted, somehow their talk of eerie ghost sightings and why you shouldn't look into the mirror in the dark... horrifyingly captivating. It reminded him of all those stupid tales his brothers told him when he was tiny and they all still lived together, he hated them then and he hated them now. Why would anyone LIKE to be scared? Yet, he couldn't stop listening.

In which that song has a lot of notes, apparently.

      "I thought you say there was snow," Tristan said after a moment, and Jack was delighted that someone had changed the subject.
      "There was... You know Harlan-- oh wait, you don't. Well, that will happen about twelve more times and then it might snow properly, but no one gets out of school or work until it's too late and they're on Godmas holiday anyway, and it will all melt two days before Godmas and never return."
      "Dude, Tristan.. is it like, a frigid wasteland in Hodden?" Darren asked, losing his faux-uninterested act he'd been holding up for a few minutes, "--and like, there's nothing else to do but practice guitar your whole life? I can't even imagine how else anyone would get that good."
      "Huh? No... It's about the same as Jack says, weather is okay. Lots of bands like that in my country, I don't even hear of that one special, I thought they play okay. 'Sindssyg Kniv' MUCH better, these guys too slow."
Darren frowned, "I bet they came from the extra cold part of Hodden."
      "No, I don't think so--"
      "ANYWAY... why don't you dorks talk about the weather some more. Damn it."

Ugh sometimes I have a really hard time with a page. But-- I'm always happy I did it. :) Wow what kind of weird concert was this with 'Tricky Slicky' opening for these guys? I don't even get it and I made it up myself!

             TRANSCRIPT:  This is the text of the comic, for purposes such as translation and internet searches.

1.)

(Jack listens to the kids talking, creeping himself out.)

BEANIE KID:  They say if you hear a knock on your door late at night-- and look out the peephole and no one’s there... DON’T OPEN THE DOOR! That’s how Minchin gets in!

2.)

(Jack is surprised by Tristan's approach, he brings Darren with him.)

FRIZZ HAIRED KID (OFF CAMERA): Hahahah I remember believing that.

TRISTAN:Here he is! You excited to see Rød Knytnæve?

DARREN: I don’t think it’s pronounced that way...

3.)

TRISTAN:  Rød Knytnæve is Hodden words, I think I know--

DARREN:  I can’t believe that roadie is trying to tune a guitar like that! What an idiot. People should not even be allowed to handle nice shit that way!

4.)

(A roadie attempts to do something or other with a guitar.)

HAPLESS ROADIE: Oops! Heh... um

JACK: Wow I forget that you were like a sorta rockstar. Why don’t you play the guitar now?

DARREN: Man...

5.)

DARREN: I was tired of it before, and now I ain’t got a soul. No one cares anyway.

6.)

JACK: I never even heard you, but people seemed to really like the Belfries.

GUITAR: DNNNNNN

7.)

(The band comes out on stage, and the crowd reacts joyfully. Some wispy fog covers the stage.)

GUITARIST: We are Rød Knytnæve! Song called... Dræbe Gud!

8.)

(Jack, Tristan and Darren react to the music. Jack looks startled, Tristan is pleasantly inscrutable and Darren is in awe.)

9.)

(A bloody figure lurks in the darkness outside the club, leaning against a wall. It hears the music from the club.)

BLOODY FIGURE: Dræbe Gud...

10.)

(A man crosses in front of the alley, two glowing eyes in the background, he lights a cigarette.)

SMOKER: Smells like a fuckin'... Damn what is that...

11.)

(The bloody figure slits his throat, and blood sprays.)

12.)

(The figure sinks to the ground, a spurt of blood going in front of its face.)

13.)

(Our three friends walk outside the club, Tristan has his arm around Jack. Darren lurches forward, nearly senseless.)

TRISTAN: So cool!

14.)

(Tristan looks happily up at the sky, Darren is actually showing some excitement which Jack notes.)

TRISTAN:  So many come to see band from Hodden!

DARREN:  Didja..didja see that part where he was like behbeh BADABADA! SO COOL.

15.)

JACK: Hey maybe you should play guitar like that!

DARREN: What. No. No.

16.)

(Jack points at a big poster on a wall, that has been somewhat pasted over, but still visible as a Minchin related paraphernalia. He points at it accusingly.)

JACK: Augh what’s the deal with this Minchin thing? I don’t get it!

DARREN: Oh yeah, kids like that stupid horror shit. “Don’t open the door,” scary knock-knock jokes. Lame.

17.)

(Tristan points off camera, presumable at the poster, Darren continues ahead unimpressed.)

TRISTAN: Haha! A clown. Looks funny.

DARREN: I never believed that crap. It’s not even scary.
