Death Is Cheap: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[Casey and Andy]]'', main character and [[Author Avatar]] Andy was killed in the very first strip!

The first time, C&A appear at the Pearly Gates... but after Andy starts dating [[Evil Is Sexy|Satan]], they always seems to end up going to the [[Hell|other place]].

'''crowd''': ''Ohhhhh.'' }}

* ''[[Full Frontal Nerdity]]'' muses why lots of superheroes visit the "[http://ffn.nodwick.com/?p=347 Limbo Lounge]", but don't talk about their afterlife experience.
