Forgive the lack of updates - this was one hectic week. Fortunately, I've gotten a lot of necessary travel and apartment-hunting done (more on that later), and I'm now up in Massachusetts for some event planning (more on THAT later). It's gorgeously autumn-like here.
Have a good weekend!

Damn ants!
Is this a canon?
TELL ME IT'S A CANON ;-;
Niallsb
I knew it! I knew there would be someone asking if this was canon!
CWR
Actually, questioning if it's A canon – perhaps (facetiously) confusing the term with artillery?

Well, my plan of going to the Halloween party as grapes from Octopus Pie just popped.
morgan
ha ha
popped
Leith
Grapes from octopus pie? Cheeky!
Ruth
Man that recipe sounds amazing.
Christian Vegas
i smell a twist
THE BIRDS
The swan did it.
Rezmason
Before she died, do you think Eve let out a little whine?
By the way guys, if you're in the market for a giant pointy mineral crystal to make shish-kabobs out of your Halloween guests, I *highly recommend* the Astro Gallery on 34th and Madison. http://www.astrogallery.com/ It's like a little museum. It's just magnificent. And some of the pieces are just huge.
Sela
As a jewelry and gem nerd, I’ve always wanted to go there.
hobotron
Haha, I'm normally not much of a fan of puns, but that was pretty good.
Huntington
You win pun points. Seriously.
M
…. >.> …… <,< ….HA! AHAHAHAHA! Oh i so get it now! XD good one! goood onnnne!
Dylan
I just want you to know that pun still made someone laugh some ten-and-a-half years later

I know this isn't canon but I really gasped when I saw that first panel.
Rare violence coming from this strip.

The only other time I can think of is Will beating the bejesus out of Bertilak:
http://www.octopuspie.com/2008-09-08/192-uhh/
But he deserved it for the awesomeface, "Sir Blochus of Cochus", and "Tulta munille!" (Finnish for 'blue balls'?).
And because Will has a TEMPER!!!
Now I can't stop giggling.
NextChamp
Well that was just Will being awesome.
I guess this is the first time we've seen 'Saw' like violence in the strip.
Luke
I think it was a battlecry that meant "shoot for the balls".
AKA, the best god damned battlecry history has yet seen.
Mayday
Hahaha poor sixth panel Marigold.
But… where's Greg? J'accuse!
Ian
this. he's my prime suspect.
Rezmason
Yeah, at first Greg is totally going down for this. I hope this month pans out like the Tim Curry movie Clue.
David
That's my hope for all months.
zem
the latest storyline button goes all the way back to a door next to this door
zem
also marek’s reaction and hanna’s entrance are hilarious
Higgy
Where is greg indeed!?
wykstrad
Just like Drew Barrymore in Scream!
lamelama22
lol dead eve’s face in panel 1 is hilarious!
what if eve is faking so they won’t suspect her sour attitude as the reason for murdering the rest?
Dengarde
…Mareks ears…
They're actually moving like real wolf ears do.
…I want to scratch them. NOW.
Tim
I am also amusing by his adorable moving ears 😛
Alain
What! WHAT!
"Have a good weekend!"
You suddenly turn Moebius on us and you end up saying "Have a good weekend!"!!??
Sela
Lol, so not canon.
Munkiman
WELCOME… TO DIE!
AnDrew
she died the way i live…jumping on spikes
Daniel Nicolas
guys, every single character is going to die this october.
it's called October Die for a reason.
Fady
Clearly cosmic karma for having a laaaaaaaame costume, Eve!
Sarah
I love sad face Navi!Meredith.
Also… yyyyyikes!
Joe
Good. Eve's dead. It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the cast interacts without her presence.
Just a thought–were all the guests shown in the first chapter of this arc, or is Meredith hiding some of them from us?
wogzi
From now on the story will just be about David Bowie, trapped eternally in an ever more comfortably-sized apartment, regaling us with tales of his youth and the occasional but well warranted moments of contemplative silence.
Orion Moony
YES. YES. MAKE IT SO.
hobotron
haha, it's not every comic that is willing to have the protagonist be the first victim in a murder mystery. I love it.
Shifter Comic
Next storyline: "Eve Lives"
nvm88
Damn it! Why is it whenever I go to buy the original piece of art somebody has already beat me to eeet!
Damn your popularity.
Fish
How the crap did she manage to fall on the spikes?
Professional Mole
That… that was sudden! O_o
…wait a minute! What happened to Eve's costume? XO
Taylor Lopez (TeaLo)
It popped! (hense the popping in the last strip)
you can even see a few dead balloons taped to her in the first pannel lol.
Daniel
I never tire of X’s for dead eyes. Can’t wait to see what happens next!
MrJM
I'm intrigued by your comic's new direction, Mr. Shyamalan.

tripleaces
Is that a Finn costume I spy?
preds
thats what i thought…..i totally want one.
tripleaces
Dito 🙂
nathan
Got it – he's from Scribblenauts
nvm88
Scribblenauts? I figured he was "teen wolf" ?
Jax
I think we're all ignoring the more important issue here:
EVE KILLED THE SWAN.
Jimmy
Marek is hilariously innocent.
tripleaces
*flashlight* It's always the innocent ones.
*lays creepy msic*
jakob
found the webcomic today, spent all day reading it. very very funny
must. have. it. /heads over to amazon…. greetings from germany 🙂
/oh, cc licensed – nice!
AlmostLiterally
Please let Marigold be next, please let Marigold be next, please let Marigold be next…
Liz
Best. Prank. Ever.
Eve's coolness just skyrocketed.
Damien Walder
That's not even a grape press!
Oh well.
(Cue "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" theme)
Brinna
WHHAAAAAAAAAAT?????
:'(
Thomas Overbeck
Well, Frank… it looks like this vintage evening… *dons shades* …has gone sour.
(YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH…)
krisnaaa
the dude's dressed up as finn from adventure time ahhahaha
and noooo poor eve!!!
GoatsAreTerrible
I shotgun next go at main character.
Hey! Stop pushing in line!
Shras
I bet all Marek had to do for his costume (for the wolf bit) was put the ears on. He had all the other fuzz already, oh and whiskers lol and nose paint or w/e
Patatas
Eve was killed first because she would have been able to figure it out.
