"Investing."

I tend to take a pretty dim view of investing, and to Angel's credit, he's probably doing it wrong by modern standards; which would probably do something even more horrible than Satana could guess. I think Angel's looking at the bar as a project he could fart around with; while Sat has got the place comfortable, or at least good enough. I had to look it up, since Satana's been in these strips for over ten years (!) and in our continuity, she said she used to live in a deconsecrated church, which everyone seems to think meant she lived in a crypt. So, the bar is probably luxurious compared to those, and it's mostly so she can drink without seeming like she's drinking abusively. (She would be drinking the same either place, but drink like that in a crypt and everybody gets all judgey...)

Also, Kurt carrying Longshot; they only fell out of the shot like four times! I did a fireman's carry with some of McFarlane's Call of Duty guys some time back, but I think this one's better.

I definitely understand the struggle of getting that shot of a figure carrying another figure like Kurt’s carrying Longshot. It’s a huge pain in the @$$ to achieve the right amount of balance, so kudos to you Goo.

Sat’s not wrong. Recently a lot of known franchises are being taken over by their new breed of investment firms that do exactly what you described; take a brand over & slowly gut & hollow it out, stripping it for parts, before dumping it after bankrupting it with huge debt. Toys R Us & Red Lobster being recent examples.
