Man, that's just lovely. And nice to know Death was playing chess before the Seventh Seal. (Although I hope everyone has seen that.)

Man, Doctor Doom, eat a sandwich already. Also, fire your British dentist. 100 pages for 25 cents! For people in the many parts of the nation who will be experiencing awful weather starting today, stay safe.
