And here it is: the whole reason I had the idea for this comic in the first place. That image of the severed horse's head at the foot of that one playboy's bed in The Godfather still haunts me, so I decided to make something funny out of it. Originally I was going to put this together with MOTHER 2 characters, with Ness getting the stickhorse and the other Chosen Three getting fed up with his childish ways and taking the hatchet to his precious new toy; but I realized that it would be a liiiittle out-of-character for Ness (I dunno, maybe he'd be Mushroomized?), so I went with Lucas and Claus instead.

Let it be known that I hate drawing extras.

Yeah... about this mysterious Jeanine character Lloyd mentions... well, you'll see who she is (and *possibly* recognize her) if I ever get that far in my main fancomic. For now, I'll just say I designed her after one of the NPCs.
