    Well. So the ingredients don't just materialise?

      But they gotta know in advance, i guess.

      I would hypothesize that they appear in much the same way as the cooks themselves did; nicked from somewhere in time.

      I think that would be the "things tend to go missing so this place is rumored to be haunted" phenomenon that the receptionist alluded to back in the beginning.

    "Go home", huh?


    Rriiggggghhtttt. (Imagine Bill Cosby Voice)

    I like Mr Cranky McSurly's way of making presenting his list into a little gesture in the next-last panel, BTW

      while that would be very amusing, he's just holding a piece of paper between two fingers.

      • Fairportfan 13 years ago archived

        Well, looks like three fingers, with the middle finger most visible...

        • GristleMcNerd 13 years ago archived

          Besides, Widdershins is in England, so 2 fingers are actually just as rude.

    Somehow, I don't think "home" is, well... home.

    • BrokenEye 13 years ago archived

      Well no, not actually his original home. They sent him to this big farm upstate where he has lots of room to run around and play...

      The cake is a lie!

    That old lady is way creepier than she has any right to be

  • SteinarB 13 years ago archived

    That little old lady scares the living crap out of me.

    Remember at the very beginning of this chapter when Alexa woke up and exclaimed she'd been kidnapped by grandmas? Prediction proved. Niiiiice.

  • LenaruHeart 13 years ago archived

    Well, not necessarily. Philippe might have been the best at baking bread or cupcakes, or he might have made the best-looking cakes. That doesn't mean that Alexa isn't better than him in some ways.

    "You keep using those words*. I do not think they mean what you think they mean."


    *'go home'

    • Fairportfan 9 years ago archived

      Widdershins is like the British "Avengers" TV series.


      There are no extras, except for crowd scenes.

    All I can say is I hope if this ever happens to me, that my recipe cards come with me! I'm a fantastic baker but I'm hopeless without my cheat sheets!

  • Lleyn 13 years ago archived

    I think that was his way of flipping her off without appearing to do so g

  • Nick Godby 12 years ago archived

    Ahh Mrs. Doubtfire reemployed..=)

    This is scary! Seriously, I'm not kidding! You manage to make a scary story while keeping the overall fun tone of the comic.
