So I'm at bat again, huh? This one won't last too long, but it should be something different. Read the rules carefully, and enter accordingly.

1. Asiangirl2's been murdered! In cold blood. And one or more of the stripcreator characters are responsible.

2. Make your comic cover some aspect of the case -- the motive, the killing, the investigation, the trial, whatever.

3. This case is very straightforward, without too many red herrings. Therefore, your comic should be for the most part consistent with the entries that have been posted before you. However, the comics don't need to be in sequence. Just think of them as a set of snapshots of the case.

4. You know how in the game Clue you get one chance to solve the crime, and then you either win or lose? This is sort of the same. Only one entry per person! Make yours count!

5. The trail gets cold quickly. Entries close 36 hours from now. Judging will be based on humor, creativity, adding twists to the case, and whatever else I feel like.

I thought I'd start things off by giving everyone else a little something to start playing with. Enjoy.

Here's someone else's comic (kramer_vs_kramer, to be exact):

And here's where it ties into the case:

Currently rewatching Twin Peaks with a friend of mine, so this strip was irresistable...

not an entry (obviously):

35312

and this one makes the series comply with the comedic rule of threes, counting my official entry:

HAHAHAHA! Anyway, I think it was Wirthling that did it in the conservatory with the AssMaster 5000.

I suspect that HAHAHAHA is for andydougan, since 1 minute isn't nearly enough time to read and reply on a comic.

INTERCEPTION!

Now that that's taken care of, we still need a winner. And the battle was furious. To be sure, I had no idea what you people would pull out of your heads. But unfortunately, I can give out only two prizes today, though at least a half dozen of you proved worthy. So therefore I award ...

For volunteering her time, as well as her ability in brazenly skirting the rules without managing to disqualify herself, attitudechicka wins the opportunity to spend the night in sunny Scotland.

And for his expertise in modern police procedures, andydougan wins the right to inflict CC 66: The Nephew of the Beast upon us. Congrats, Andy, you're our new champ.
