Skin Horse by Shaenon K. Garrity and Jeffrey C. Wells for October 04, 2021

Okay, seriously, are we sure that Tip is in the right building? I would have thought that A-Sig headquarters would be a bit more…normal? You know, less eccentrics and non-human sophonts, etc.. I really thought Anasigma hated non-human sophonts and the like. Am I just completely forgetting what their goal and modus operandi actually is? Did they somehow switch to embracing weirdness while no-one was looking?

Or perhaps it is, that this kind of weirdness is simply inevitable in the world of Skin Horse, no matter what A-Sig does to try and suppress it?

Tip: “You could have used the scroll to swat the spider, you know. Just saying…”

Perhaps Master B wants the spider out of the washroom without harming it. And this is Skin Horse, so I’d expect that it’s not a common household spider. It might be at least as big as a tarantula, and maybe able to speak.

Nothing so mundane as care of magical creatures? Now I want to know what magical creatures he has.

I think the previous commenters are way under-emphasizing the word “big” in the strip.

It’s name is Ungoliant, by the way.

Hopefully this won’t be like with the silverfish; Tip doesn’t have the time to get bigger down by side quests

So much wackiness. It really is amazing that things haven’t gotten even more out of control.
