Weekly Webcomic Update

   This is really, really late this week. My apologies, but you probably
   shouldn't be surprised.
   [1]Sluggy Freelance -- Torg and Riff stumble upon the House of Cheese,
   a new pizza place that serves really good pizza and prominently
   displays the Hereti-Corp logo. It is, of course, a Hereti-Corp
   business. Furthermore, as Riff's already figured out, it's designed to
   draw out Oasis. Override B-1 and all the moment she spots that logo.
   [2]Day by Day -- Sam draws the attention of a calendar photographer
   with her shooting, so now she's off to a photoshoot for some calendar
   of women and guns. Jan and Damon accompany her to make sure
   everything's on the up-and-up, but it looks like Jan's very
   uncomfortable, possibly more due to the guns than Sam's skimpy
   clothing.
   [3]Scary Go Round -- Rachel's domineering personality has run afoul of
   the Satanic nuns, and they've decided to burn her in effigy--well,
   more accurately, burn her inside an effigy. Actually, it looks more
   like a wooden house, but whatever. Tessa tries to save her without
   getting herself burned alive, but she's not having an easy time of it.
   Back at the bachelor pad, Shelley's showing Ryan where he used to
   live, but it's hardly a happy homecoming, as his pet bat has died in
   his absence.
   [4]Dominic Deegan -- Just as it looks like Stunt's dead, he manages to
   reach his feet and cut Urban Eddie's throat. But he's been stabbed
   fatally, and we get a touching death scene where he tells Bumper how
   much he cares about him. Then Gregory shows up at the last moment and
   heals him, making everyone feel very embarassed. It's quite
   disconcerting to give your deathbed statement and then survive.
   Despite all this, Stunt's arrested for murder. Even if everyone feels
   his killing of Urban Eddie was justified, he did a lot of other nasty
   things, so Pam decides that his punishment is exile--which wouldn't be
   so bad if Bumper were going with him.
   [5]Schlock Mercenary -- Kevyn's nanobots are helping him to set his
   bones to make their repair work easier. It's a painful, often
   disgusting process, and way too much of it is shown. But moving along,
   Schlock and the others are heading farther and farther away, trying to
   discover where the air ship they spotted came from. Unfortunately, it
   was just out for a spin around the world, so they've got a long walk
   ahead of them. The aliens the air ship belonged to, meanwhile, are
   curious about what started the forest fire they witnessed.
