And that’s how Captain Ultimo discovered his new favorite coffee creamer, Cyanide! 😛

…that really should be a running gag: claw tries to kill Captain Ultimo but since it doesn’t work, Captain Ultimo finds out things like his favorite coffee flavor is cyanide. XD

We’ve already got a running gag. Remember the first time Claw offered Ultimo a drink?

So Claw has been killing minions and serving them to Captain Ultimo every time they meet? @_@

That was a great strip (and I liked this one as well, obviously!) but I didn’t think it was a running gag (happening or constantly being referred to over and over again). The following is me explaining myself; please do not take it as me dictating how you should run your strip. I just have a vivid imagination at times, so I already conceptualized something for this.

All I (and some others?) were thinking is that it would be hilarious for Claw to constantly do things that seemed “friendly” or at least “polite” but were actually failed murder attempts against Captain Ultimo (whether they are seriously supposed to succeed or deep down Claw knows they won’t work, I dunno).

You then later have the option of having them boomerang as Claw eventually; perhaps Claw has to break into Captain Ultimo’s home or office or what have you and its full of death traps. Not intentional death traps, but Claw’s failed attempts at killing Captain Ultimo that lead Captain Ultimo to discover things like cyanide makes a good coffee flavoring for him. This works especially well if it is the minions doing the work.

*We see a minion staring in horror as one of the other minions was badly injured trying to sit in Captain Ultimo’s super-nice-comfy-chair*

“Why does he have this?!”

“Oh… that was a deathtrap that Claw used back in ’06. Since Ultimo’s so tough, he said it felt like a back massager. Guess Cap was being serious about that.”

Capt. Ultimo is one of the people who can smell the almond smell of cyanide, huh? Not everyone can. Yet another thing that evolved for who knows what reason only in certain lineages. Ultimo is a man of many abilities.

Well certain plants have very high concentrations of it evolving around these plants would require a way to tell which one’s are poisonous and which aren’t
