Random Happenstance

"(Almost) Deleted Scene: An excuse to slap together a new set."

This was originally going to be the start of next week's strip, but it doesn't have anything to do with Deadpool and his therapy. It's just a way to justify redoing the apartment set with some cheapo furniture: I built the damn thing so it would fit in the lightbox, then took the pictures on the table as usual anyway.

I wanted to use this in a Nightcrawler proposal I submitted to Marvel in that Epic thing a couple of years back: Mystique leaves Kurt a dump truck full of cash, ostensibly to make up for being a bad mom (you know, the abandonment, attempted homicide of his friends, and so on) but probably just to mess with him. Disposable income would be a good excuse to get Kurt out of the X-Mansion, since while he and the other X-Men never seemed like they were short on green, how? Granted, they didn't have to pay for rent or food or the Danger Room, but still. Did they get a stipend or something from Professor Xavier? Because that seems like it would suck. Like getting an allowance for fighting Sabertooth or the Toad.

Ah, hell: there was probably another joke there about Mystique being registered and law-abiding, while Kurt's apparently still not...oh, and shape-changing mom, that's why everyone thinks he's a Skrull! Blah, I should've deleted this one, but Deadpool's therapy on Monday, see you then!
