    Only Tycho would find being curse as a snake as a good thing.

    according to my calculations, each passionate act of serpentine lovemaking would have lasted an average of 41.4 seconds.

    then there's Tiresias, who got changed to (and, eventually, back from) a woman due to snakes fucking.

    The expressions are so good, tycho panel 2 perfectly conveys the wistful nostalgia

    Ha! After re-reading the strip, I just realized that Tycho fucked 1,000 snakes in only 23 hours...

    There was love, or at the very least, fuck.

    I love this deep lore of Tycho being in that death cult, I like to think this is part of it.

    Let's not jump to conclusions! He didn't say he had to fuck all those snakes while he was a snake.

    I can only imagine the resulting confusion and then awkwardness whenever someone asks Tycho to 'do them a Solid'.

    It's heavily implied!

    He fucked a 1000 snakes and then was fucked by said thousand snakes, see my post above for specifics.

    One I need to know now...the question that consumes me is...

    Did the curse require him to fuck 1000 snakes. Or did it require him to fuck one specific snake, and he had to do that many to find the one that would break the curse? Like a Princess kissing random frogs hoping one of them is a Prince.

    I assume he tried it one way, then the other.

    He looks pretty mad about it in the 3rd panel. I don't think his intent was to break the curse.

    i like this comic even more after hearing the podcast. The fact that they start out with a pretty normal comic concept and eventually arrive at this bonkers shit is so great.
