Nah, the Wiz is toast. Take a look at Panel 6 of #237 – he’s getting his kink on in order to project the shade, complete with nipple hooks (which the shade doesn’t have). Shade is also clothed in a robe with stars, whereas the physical Wiz (if ever a physical Wiz there was, the wizard of Id is one) is butt nekkid. Here in Panel 4 we got nipple hooks and a nekkid physical Wiz, because… because because because because be-CAUUUUUSE… he’s dead.
Now now now…. Who says that Hildy isn’t possessing Kit Walker? I wouldn’t put it past the old girl. But knowing how twisted JY is, I wouldn’t put it past it being a WIZ based infestation.
But the latin brother of the captcha seems to know that it esenot Shova. Which is good, cuz if it was shova, then we’d be in deeep trouble.
Oh and JY, what are those words in the middle of the panel with Hildy lying on fire and Kit Walker starting to spark in it? It looks like it says explosion 01??
And the captcha has the best solution, go to the Beach, eonotio Beach to be exact.
1) I do not get the ghost who walks reference. Please elaborate
2) what is all this talk about “projecting the shade” Is this the way the wizzard of id/jizz was able to visit Hilda as a projection. Is there more? What am I missing?
Either way, they are both down, so magic/dark science is gone. (BUMMER!!!))
Part of me is actually worried they may both be in the Ghost who walks. If he re-attatches his head, maybe we can get some answers.
Wow, long time reader, first time commenter… probably one of the best strips ever actually, especially in terms of artwork. Love the first panel… great ink work.
Ghost who Walks, Man who Can Not Die…Mr. Walker.
Now a shuffling headless zombie.
Hilda sensed it was her destiny to wait near the Corpse who Stands, implying that she needed to engage in mutually-assured destruction with the Wiz in order to…what?
Animate Mr. Walker, I’d guess, who, unkillable, is likely to play an important role in the real Battle Royale w/ Cal and/or Hobs.
All very deep and intricate and GODDAMMIT ONLY ONCE A WEEK
So yes, he is Kit Walker, AKA the Ghost who Walks, AKA The Phantom.
I love that he’s still in this, and that we have no idea if he’s possessed by Hildy, or the Wizard, or simply reanimated with his own will or some other consciousness. I also love that Hildy killed the Wizard. Really love it. If he’d killed her and survived I’d be mad. It’s not like he’s Cal.
Any time JY, my invoice will be in the mail. Also diggin the fact that you included the Gaylord totem/idol/charm on Hildy in panel 1.
The Captcha got psyched for a vacation I see. First he wanted to go to the eonotio Beach with me, but now he just wants to go to an amusment park that’s 100% Urban, ommuland!!!!!! It’s so awesome, it doesn’t need a capital for it’s first name.
Dammit I forgot about that Mondo amazing battle royale scene. Dick Tracy and Fearless Fosdick both getting shot up made me frown but was still fitting. especially for fosdick http://deniskitchen.com/docs/bios/bio.fosdick.jpg
The wizard is no longer frippin’ his krotz, and Hilda has made her last zap… and now we’re wondering which of them is making the “Ghost” walk. It’s been said before, JY, but ’tis time to say it again:
Ho.
Lee.
CRAP.
— Captcha had to use the `Janitor tioulet` because the regular one was broken.
Hey, JY, if I want to send a voice sample to apply for the voice of Weapon Brown, what would you want to hear to get the results you’re looking for and where would you like it sent? I was thinking about doing some of his monologues, and just about everyone I know says I’ve definitely got a voice for radio.
Thank you Bartleby! Folks, all I ask is that you all worship me like Bartleby does and name just one of your children after me. That’s all the reward I will ever need.
Actually, I also love art and when I have money (i.e. when my tax return FINALLY arrives), I’ll be buying a piece or three from ya. I don’t remember which of my artist friends directed me to you, but it was one of ’em.
Is there something I have not found on the site about updates? I thought they were happening Mondays and Thursdays but the last 3 weeks it’s only been Mondays. I need my fixxxxxxxxxxx
I reduced the number of updates only briefly so that I could begin work on the Weapon brown animated commercial. Next week will also be one update, but after that it is back to beeswax as usual!
I’m grateful for the awesome. If JY ever decided to get a high-paying corporate job, draw on the weekends, and keep it all to himself, I would cry a ot.
Well the good news is that if Kit Walker did still have a head, he would probably have inhaled the character that couldn’t possibly be Witch Hazel, which would in turn have gotten him stoned almost instantly. Then he’d be headed for a 7-11 with extreme munchies. Are we going to see the Skull ring?
Y’know… it seems a waste for the phantom to have such protective knee pads if he never hits the floor!
Seems like a bit of overkill for the walking spook.
But hol-y shit! This just keeps gettin’ better and better!
Wow, I missed this key plot point the first time around. The magic battle is what animated The Ghost Who Walks. This, er, MAY be an important thing in the future…
Awesome. Good jog squeezing out the Fresh Brown right on time. Awesome job!
Looks like both Helda and the Wiz are done, but we got a walking (heh) walker zombie
The Wiz isn’t done, just his “shade.” I’m guessing it doesn’t need a head to function.
It also infers Broomhilda is dead because of some fire. If anything, the burns might make her look BETTER. =/
“The Ghost Who Walks.”
Fuck me if this thing doesn’t keep getting more incredibly awesome with every update.
@Nostalgia
Alright, but just a quicky.
The Wiz is dead for sure, but I don’t think it would be beyond Hildie to get back up.
Nah, the Wiz is toast. Take a look at Panel 6 of #237 – he’s getting his kink on in order to project the shade, complete with nipple hooks (which the shade doesn’t have). Shade is also clothed in a robe with stars, whereas the physical Wiz (if ever a physical Wiz there was, the wizard of Id is one) is butt nekkid. Here in Panel 4 we got nipple hooks and a nekkid physical Wiz, because… because because because because be-CAUUUUUSE… he’s dead.
well, that was a surprisingly short battle. i liked hildy, though you know, platonically.
Could also be that whatever is left of the Wiz is what’s animating what’s left of the Ghost Who Walks (Again).
Oh shit, If the wizard’s dead does it mean he fell ass/junk first on his spike bed thing. DOES IT MEAN THAT WE WILL BE FORCED TO SEE THAT TOO?
My captcha doesn’t want any ruchnic. Racist.
Nah, Hildy is the one animating “The Ghost who walks”, not the Wizard of Id.
Now now now…. Who says that Hildy isn’t possessing Kit Walker? I wouldn’t put it past the old girl. But knowing how twisted JY is, I wouldn’t put it past it being a WIZ based infestation.
But the latin brother of the captcha seems to know that it esenot Shova. Which is good, cuz if it was shova, then we’d be in deeep trouble.

And the captcha has the best solution, go to the Beach, eonotio Beach to be exact.
Questions for all:
1) I do not get the ghost who walks reference. Please elaborate
2) what is all this talk about “projecting the shade” Is this the way the wizzard of id/jizz was able to visit Hilda as a projection. Is there more? What am I missing?

Good God. Just when you think Weapon Brown couldn’t possibly cram in any more awesome, it does.
Wow, long time reader, first time commenter… probably one of the best strips ever actually, especially in terms of artwork. Love the first panel… great ink work.
@llkjsdlfkj
if that that walking headless guy is “the ghost who walks” then he is “the phantom”
aka Kit Walker http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Phantom
also my I say in my opinion one of the most bad ass heroes in the history of comics up there with batman and the shadow. Fuck Yes!
Ghost who Walks, Man who Can Not Die…Mr. Walker.
Now a shuffling headless zombie.
Hilda sensed it was her destiny to wait near the Corpse who Stands, implying that she needed to engage in mutually-assured destruction with the Wiz in order to…what?

All very deep and intricate and GODDAMMIT ONLY ONCE A WEEK
@llkjsdlfkj – Perhaps you missed the last strip, which tells us all we know about the Wizard and his shade: http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/2011/05/30/weapon-brown-237/
Also, note the nametag on the headless corpse, “Walker”. His beheading occurred here: http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/comics/2011-02-02_A.gif
So yes, he is Kit Walker, AKA the Ghost who Walks, AKA The Phantom.
I love that he’s still in this, and that we have no idea if he’s possessed by Hildy, or the Wizard, or simply reanimated with his own will or some other consciousness. I also love that Hildy killed the Wizard. Really love it. If he’d killed her and survived I’d be mad. It’s not like he’s Cal.
I’ve come to expect awsome-ness with every installment but this was friggin’ outstanding! Once again, I thank you.
Shit. Shit, shit, shit. Hildy died. SHIT.
Good catch, Nick. Those words were an Illustrator glitch.
All that carnage. And all I wanted was a lifetime supply of Twizzlers.
Any time JY, my invoice will be in the mail. Also diggin the fact that you included the Gaylord totem/idol/charm on Hildy in panel 1.

Great job JY, but did the Wiz of Id have to jizz all over the wall. That kids is what happens when you choke your chicken.
Dammit I forgot about that Mondo amazing battle royale scene. Dick Tracy and Fearless Fosdick both getting shot up made me frown but was still fitting. especially for fosdick http://deniskitchen.com/docs/bios/bio.fosdick.jpg
*continuing from the masturbating Wiz of the last page* Looks like his head…*sunglasses* just blew its load all over the place. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Pretty sure we haven’t seen the last of Hildy. When she woke Snoop up, she told him something ‘off camera’ I betcha that’s gonna help save Chuck.
The wizard is no longer frippin’ his krotz, and Hilda has made her last zap… and now we’re wondering which of them is making the “Ghost” walk. It’s been said before, JY, but ’tis time to say it again:

I was thinking about doing some of his monologues, and just about everyone I know says I’ve definitely got a voice for radio.
You’d think she could nuke Calvin’s ass off the face of the earth O.o
To all that is holy I love, love, love this strip! JY, if you’re in the Indianapolis area and run games, I’d pay cash money to participate.
Well, I would if I had any.
-Bartleby the Scrivener
Thank you Bartleby! Folks, all I ask is that you all worship me like Bartleby does and name just one of your children after me. That’s all the reward I will ever need.
I have two cousins named after you, does that count?
Actually, I also love art and when I have money (i.e. when my tax return FINALLY arrives), I’ll be buying a piece or three from ya. I don’t remember which of my artist friends directed me to you, but it was one of ’em.
-Bartleby
(…or Subjugator, take your pick)
@C. Mage – Are you sure you’re hearing your friends right? They might be saying you have a face for radio. That’s why mine keep telling me, anyway.
Is there something I have not found on the site about updates? I thought they were happening Mondays and Thursdays but the last 3 weeks it’s only been Mondays. I need my fixxxxxxxxxxx
Steve-
I reduced the number of updates only briefly so that I could begin work on the Weapon brown animated commercial. Next week will also be one update, but after that it is back to beeswax as usual!
(or as Captcha put it: More Ovsame)
Beeswax as usual, or one update a week, with a sporadic extra update on some random days.
I’m grateful for the awesome. If JY ever decided to get a high-paying corporate job, draw on the weekends, and keep it all to himself, I would cry a ot.
@Gus – Way to project there, Gus.
Well the good news is that if Kit Walker did still have a head, he would probably have inhaled the character that couldn’t possibly be Witch Hazel, which would in turn have gotten him stoned almost instantly. Then he’d be headed for a 7-11 with extreme munchies. Are we going to see the Skull ring?
Capcha agrees about the head: not thereati
KarlM— it’s in the gif Gus posted on the 6th.
Fresh Brown tomorrow. Cannot wait. I know you’re usually late. Push it out JY. Squeeeeezee!
Thanks JY! Now I know not to check my phone’s browser 30 times every Thursday praying for an update!
I just got the joke. It blew his mind!
ubjoyeas $336
Y’know… it seems a waste for the phantom to have such protective knee pads if he never hits the floor!
Seems like a bit of overkill for the walking spook.
But hol-y shit! This just keeps gettin’ better and better!
Talk about blowing yer load !!
-speaking of which; JY, I’d name my kids after ya if I knew who they were…
Wow, I missed this key plot point the first time around. The magic battle is what animated The Ghost Who Walks. This, er, MAY be an important thing in the future…
