Looks like Lex is knockin' 'em dead at the old aquarium!
Just to let y'all into a little secret – Gus spends the time he's not amusing Nicky over at Squid Row. You can tune in to his latest adventure here to learn more about him!
To experience this aquarium adventure from the start, go here and then click forward. You'll also get a couple of non-aquarium but basically it'll be the sequence.
Just gotta have today's crowtoon on your wall? Or on your very own self? Then it's time to visit The Nicky Store!





Isn’t “Gus” the name they JUST gave the octupus in the aquarium in “Squid Row”?

Wow, now that’s a funny one.
Patjade – Indeed it is. An amazing coincidence.
Or … is it?
eug4not – Thanks. Octopuses are well known to be excellent physical comedians.
It’s a little known fact that prior to settling on snakes, Harry Potter was first supposed to communicate with squids in the aquarium.
Funny how things evolve.

Barbara – Good thing they switched, otherwise production costs would have skyrocketed as the octopuses hammed it up for the cameras. There’s no way they could have kept them serious.
Didn’t Judas hang himself?
Excellent. This is exactly how I feel about…boring speeches! (Dang, speech is one of the few words I have trouble remembering how to spell)
Daniel – Maybe so. But Gus didn’t really hang himself – he’s just hanging around
Tough to actually hang yourself underwater anyway, I’d imagine.
He’s alive! Great balls of fire, Gus lives!
Now do a eight-tentacle split!
Oh, ho! We’re sharing Gus, are we? Well, Gus would belong to the Cypress Bay Aquarium… and it is a tourist attraction… I’d actually thought of crossing the paths of Randie and Nicky at the Aquarium… for that toon we discussed… Gus’ path got crossed first. (future toons?)
I do love the boredness of Gus there. And the last panel is adorable… in a morbid kind of way… (mort-ish humour) ha!
And thanks for noticing Patjade (with the link)!

I just thought it was a fun coincidence. Glad to see Bridgett agrees, and I’d love to see the characters cross paths.
There’s always Wednesday …
Patjade – Should mention that Bridgett and Crow go back a looong ways. Well, in fruit fly lives at least.
Turned out we both had our characters at the aquarium as part of our strips and the naming of Gus inspired me to take Nicky and Lex a bit further on.
I wasn’t aware of that. Both of your webcomics are fairly new to me as I saw them on baners from onother comic I enjoy, and thought I would check them aut. Now they are both on my RSS feeds!
Glad to hear it!
Hey, you got your own gravatar! Excellent!
I had this one on Wordpress, but I had to convince Gravatar I as me.
Ha, Crow! Fruit flies… yah, we is sorta new buds… but certainly, birds of a feather! Glad to have you Patjade, in both universes… they are colliding!

That nerd will end like the 40 year old virgin for sure…
is by any chance the pose of the octopus a reference to the persistence of memory by dali?
Perhaps subconsciously.
