Ok, this is the part where we point and laugh. I don't get it. Someone said fascinated and creeped out. I'm neither. I look at it, I see it, I recognize words and images, but there is no understanding or emotion triggered. I could as well be staring at Andy Capp, or a medium sized piece of wood. I get the Victorian oddity-fixation slant, but little else. What am I missing?

i re'd above comics and thought: "Twisp and Catsby!"
Insubstantial!
Ja, that'd be them, it, him. Twisp.. I think. Catsby's the devilish looking fellow. I could be (and often am) wrong.
I always assumed that Catsby was the cat.
but what i meant was: Cochlea & Eustachia are very much in the "How much does that weigh? Ham!" category
my lord.
that's just great.
reminds me of some of the hernandez brothers' work.
