Commentary by Kevin McShane

So halfway through the first semester of my sophomore year, I dislocated my knee and tore my ACL. How is not important. Let’s just go with this strip’s explanation: I was saving nuns and kittens from a burning convent.

And so, being out of commission (not to mention hopped up on painkillers) led to this very bizzare strip.

This strip was fun because it gave me the chance to draw some stuff we’d probably never see in a regular Toupy strip: the boys with moustachios, Toupy in an SS uniform, rubber duckie blueprints, and – my personal favorite – Samurai Teeter.

I never received any feedback for this strip. I’d still like to see someone try to make a coherent story out of it.
