“She” in my comment was the spider, all spiders that matter are “she”, the males don’t live long in most species and tend to be tiny, puny and not really scary at all.
Has the background of panel 1 been created with an A.I. tool? Not a criticism, I’m just noticing some oddities like what appears to be two stoves, the left stove top extending over a wooden cupboard, two handles on one cupboard, no handle on the freezer door, etc.
Obviously you don’t live in my home: the other stove hasn’t worked for decades… but the oven does work, what is not the case in the main stove. Like, you know, “obviously…”
Heh heh, I found AI to be the perfect tool for representing the fever-dream nightmare realm of the Devourer in which Brian and crew now find themselves. Oddly enough, back in the day, when I was really interested in lucid dreaming, I made a point of analyzing my surroundings very closely whenever I achieved a fully lucid state within a dream, and I discovered that things were often a little “off”. For example, I remember picking up a cheap ball-point pen inside a dream and observing it closely. It had the proper weight in my hand and felt as though it was made of plastic, but the cap that you would normally be able to pull off was not a separate piece. It was just a nobby, extruded part of a single object, like the pen was a low-poly 3D object used for set dressing in an old video game with a colored texture map overlayed.
Now that AI is capably of rendering its concept of our world, I find it a little spooky to find so much in common with the way it sees our reality and the strange, ever-shifting reality of dreams.
Well played, sir! Certainly dream-world and reality-world are two quite distinct things. Cupboard handles can have an annoying tendency to fall off, while the freezer could be opened by the door-rim.
Again, interesting angles of viewing, rather cinematic.
Who says that that is a separate fridge/freezer? Or even that the freezer is on top? 😛
Have seen a few single units with a similar band around the middle, and of course ones where the handle is recessed into the rim (but those tend to have the recess on both parts, and no handles at all)
The spider came handy in the end. I’m however sure she could have woven a broader bridge if she tried…
You mean Neal the spider? Or Mandy

The spider was introduced as Neal, Brian’s Fear of Spiders
Hope y’all have a happy new year 🙂
No, Mandy
