Well, push has finally come to shove. Anyone ready to finally figure out what’s in the basement?
Let’s hear all your best speculation.
I warn you, though. I’ve already drawn the next couple of strips, and I’m not changing them, even if you have really, really funny ideas. The plot’s in place already.
I guess what I’m saying is, I’m really happy if you want to guess. Very gratified if you will, to be sure.
But try not to come up with something better than what’s already on paper, willya?
I said a few back, a rummage sale teddy bear that looks like Mr. Stuffins with a headstone saying ‘Theodore Beare, rest in pieces’
Then that they installed some sort of mud bog down there for biking
Allen VS is in a sleeping bag in the basement and was there to scare Lowell, now he’s ready to scare Hubris… (anyone hear from him yet?)
They installed a full tropical beach lounging scene complete with a pool and wetbar.
Bob dug a cave to live in, he was tired of the place in the floorjoists, think BatCave (classic Batman/Adam West) crossed with surfer dude…
Heck that’s it, they installed a wave pool.
Paste: “mumble mumble Betty and Veronica issue 1 comic mom almost succeeded in throwing out mumble mint condition mumble still in packaging…”
Lifetime supply of Viper cola?
Fake Sasquatch?
Next big thing helmet?
Sportsmart free sutff from outdoorfest?
Wait…
Fake Sasquatch, in the next big thing helmet, wearing Sportsmart stuff, on a throne of Viper cola/snake oil, riding a kayak with skateboards under it!
That’s a good answer.
Oh, and I’m guessing one of the strips is a cliffhanger, with Hubris looking at something that isn’t shown and being surprised.
I’m gonna go the innocent rout and say they’ve renovated the basement into a proper room for Bob.
Not funny, but the first thing I thought of: a morel (mushroom) garden. Dirt basements are creepy as all get-out. I don’t care how well braced, and how low the water table, it feels like you’re one sneeze away from being buried alive.
maybe a replica of mr stuffins ripped to shreds to really freak Lowel out should he demand they dig up the floor to settle things. but knowing Pasty proably some stuff from the store like kayaks and skateboard and even a store Maniquin.
I’m thinking he’s built a mini skate park in the basement.
I’m going to add they took a large inflatapool, a kid’s slide, put a garden hose on the slide to make it wet, and another in the inflatapool to drain it below a certain level, and made a fake kayak rapids….
