A rare interview with the creators of the always-funny, always-brilliant, and *usually*-sexy—or occasionally anti-sexy—OGLAF!
Cooper has kept a low profile over the years, but is legitimately one of the very best artists in comics today. Read OGLAF if you're old enough to drive!

His attendant is a “penitent” - a criminal, ritually strangled, reanimated, and doomed to eternal labour (his conscious soul still trapped in his skull, according to local beliefs) (3/3)

The local beliefs are that the body contains several souls - with the head being the home of the conscious soul/self (a not uncommon real life belief system, where your conscious soul can wander while you sleep, and your body souls can be individually sickened or attacked - thus illness)

one of the things i really enjoy about these comics is the worldbuilding detail. the table could have been a flat thing with legs, but no: at a glance apparent how the slabs interlock and the curve of the uprights implies a style, vernacular karazithian or whatever. just a pleasure to look at.

Behind her are stacked habitation pods, each assigned to one individual iteration of her extended replicated line.
