Strange Saturday Stuff

Well it is that time for a 'bit o' the strange' as another Saturday hits us. Strange Saturday seems appropriate on this fourth installment if for no other reason than it is the day after Friday the 13th. Did all go well for you all yesterday?

So we will begin this week with some of the strangest, funniest, and mostly bizarro humor of Jeff Strand, his heroes are bumbling losers, with the worst possible luck, drawn into the most horrifying situations. The beauty is, they are too busy stumble-bumming through to realize the horror themselves, and so handle it all with aplomb, and therein lies the humor.
