[Panel 1](At a nearby watering hole...) Matt the Henchman: I don’t get it! You’re the highest-ranked hench in the biz! What’s got you down?!
[Panel 2](Argus the Minotaur sighs, sitting at the bar with Matt, drinking beer.) Argus the Minotaur:sigh I used to hench with a woman. She was… amazing.
[Panel 3](Flashback of Argus thinking about the past.) Argus the Minotaur (narration): I couldn’t bring myself to tell her how I felt about her because it woulda wrecked our working relationship.
[Panel 4](Flashback continues.) Argus the Minotaur (narration): When she got promoted, I left henching and just… kicked around for a while.
[Panel 5](Another flashback, showing Argus sneakily capturing Lightning Lady from behind.) Argus the Minotaur (narration): After years of trying to forget her, I decided to give it one more try.
[Panel 6](Argus and Lightning Lady sit next to each other, playing video games.) Argus the Minotaur (narration): Now I’m back where I started. I’m henching again, and she’s close enough to touch, but too far to hold. *Caption: After a brief stint at the Silver Agency.
[Panel 7](Back at the bar, Matt looks at Argus.) Matt the Henchman: So… what? You’re just gonna suffer in silence?
[Panel 8](Argus grins sadly.) Argus the Minotaur: Trust me. You do not want to hear a minotaur suffer out loud.
It’s the fifth episode of Hey Comics — Kids! On the drive to school today, the boys and I discussed Microsoft’s purchase of Mojang, the company that produces Minecraft. That brought us to a discussion of the console wars, the health of Nintendo’s Wii U, its salvation through the 3DS, and, inevitably, Pokémon. Always, always Pokémon.
Microsoft buys Minecraft
The boys are really enjoying recording the podcast — and reading the reactions on Twitter, Facebook, etc. So if you’d like to hear them address a specific topic or if you have a show idea, please hit the comments below.
