TRANSCRIPT: This is the text of the comic, for purposes such as translation and internet searches.
1.)
(A title panel - the whole comic is in the format of a Sunday edition of a daily comic, but in black and white with
splashes of yellow. We see nerdy demon in bow tie and thick glasses, sad oversized toothy smile nebbishing at us.)
GREY ACTIONY TEXT: REAL ADVENTURESTM IN
YELLOW DRIPPY TEXT: ORGAN REMOVAL
SMALLER FANCY TEXT: FEATURING
YELLOW AND GREY TITLE: DISCOMFORT, YOUR CONSTANT COMPANION
SPEECH OF THE DEMON: You're very welcome
2.)
(Kelly continues to lay about in misery as Chronic Pain perches atop his torso,
but a medical professional in protective gear is offering him a potion with tongs.)
INTERTITLE: HOSPITALLIN'
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL: Drink this.
KELLY: What izzit?
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL: Lidocaine 'n' stuff.
CHRONIC PAIN: Good for MP? (magic points)
3.)
(Before and after panel split down the middle of our protagonist. On one side we see him relieved to see Chronic Pain
melting like a wicked witch. On the other side he is expressing disappointment at the appearance of another spirit.)
KELLY: Haha!
CHRONIC PAIN: Nooooo! I'll be back
KELLY: Who T.F. are you?
NEW DEMON: Discomfort. You god damn know me.
4.)
(The medical professional explains the deal and Discomfort answers for him. Kelly is looking glum and wishing for escape.)
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL: Alright, you just sit here watching Curious George cartoons
with no volume for hours ... & we'll occasionally do uncomfortable tests on you, OK
DISCOMFORT: Sounds good.
5.)
(Later Christopher checks in and Kelly is still being prodded with clunky old-fashioned medical foolery.)
INTERTITLE: HOURS LATER ...
CHRISTOPHER: Still here?
DISCOMFORT: Still here.
6.)
(Weary Christopher and Kelly look at each other relieved they are soon to go home, when medical professional appears with ill tidings.)
INTERTITLE: THAT NIGHT ...
KELLY: Almost home.
CHRISTOPHER: Almost home.
DISCOMFORT: LOL
MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL: So, ah ... How attached are you to that gall bladder? |
