Morty Comix # 2436





Morty Comix # 2436 accompanied me for dinner at an Elma, Washington restaurant. I placed the comic inside an issue of our local weekly, The East County News, which had a cover article about a former neighbor of mine being arrested and charged with embezzling a big chunk of change from the City of McCleary, where she was employed. Then I returned the newspaper to the "Free" area. Someone will get a special comics section of the paper! This was the same newspaper that used to run my East County Comix strip.

Fetid Lake of Doom, handy railroad for distribution of reptile eggs, steam plant where the caimans stay warm in the cold months, and the Legislative Building. It's all a little too cozy and obvious, I'd say.

Warning sign by the Fetid Lake of Doom, claiming that this body of water is infested with New Zealand Mud Snails. However, we know this is just a cover. The authorities really want to protect the citizens from caimans, which abound in the Lake during the warm months, but officials are afraid of causing widespread panic if the truth came out. Hence, this little fairy tale to keep people away.

I believe this was created for some event. The same buttons were issued in different colors to designate some kind of training groups, I think.
