And we swing into strange territories with this arc! Meet Ixod Instanbul, the gonzo-ist journalist since Hunter S. Thompson. Enjoy the trip through his rancid thoughts. Ixod is a hyena journalist in search of the Truth. Fear him. Cubist and I are both fans of a comic book called "Transmetropolitan." Ixod shares a lot of characteristics with that comic's protagonists, Spider Jerusalem.

Someone is begging to get socked right in the nose.

For Ixod, nothing short of complete annihilation of your target counts as a victory...

You got to feel bad for Peter here... he can't ever live up to the expectations of a loon like Ixod, not that he'd want to, but it places pressure on determining exactly what journalism is: bringing comfort to the afflicted, or afflicting the comfortable?

The current strip is very film-noirish to me, the lone anti-hero, wandering the dark streets of the city, contemplating the meaning of it all... I wish Humphrey Bogart was still alive to play Ixod.

Actually I see Ixod more as Vincent Price or the guy who played Norman Bates. I wouldn't be surprised if Ixod had a few people tied up in his basement.

I'm not a drinker, so I have no idea what Ixod and Turk are talking about...
Will looks like he's seconds away from pounding ol' Ix, though.

And that concludes our broadcast day! Ixod, being in a bad mood but not dissuaded from his task, is not out of the game yet.
