Tren: Spicy Encounters!
(click thumbnail for fullsize excellence)

?
??

Tren Neva created these portraitistic werks of aaart. You may have already surmised this because it is called Tren: Spicy Encounters (italics denoting a major canonical work). More modern than postmodern in the post, more yummy than sugary butter and (choose fruit) jam on toast, this is a political statement more relevant to society than any census by consensus. Better than any words, however, look, lawk, and on a lark, re-act.

Trennie is a friendie I made in the world o' Second Life somemonths ago. It seems so far away, and yet so near, having her make guest appearances on here.

Questions for further study & reading discussion:

  • Why is it relevant that "cronicals" is spelled as such?
  • The floor of the bathroom is a checkerboard. Explain in an expository paragraph how this relates to the epic struggle of Good vs. Evil within.
  • Is the subtitle of "Spicy Encounters!" literal, figurative, neither, or both? State your reason?and explain why.
  • In the first pane, there is an amorphous blobperson with a Giganotosaurus (not a T-Rex) on a leash. What relevance?does this theme of Domination/submission have to the plumber's butt crack?
  • The cat's name is not explicitly stated, but is suggested. What's?her name? Give your answer in four numbers or less.
  • How did the cat come to become black?
  • Select three pieces of music to represent the following sections of the narrative: A) action, B) action action, C) coming action/climax, and D) spacetime travelling.
  • "OMG", as proclaimed by the lover's anguished mate, is an acronym which stands for "Oh My God". Explain the irony of this statement since she is not the one actively engaged in intercourse with the protagonist of the strip.
  • In the dormitory chamber of the plumber hangs two pictures. One shows a watermelon in heat, the other an unidentified (to the viewer) stick person. Explain why:
    1. They are not both in the same picture.
    2. If you answered "abandonment, detachment, and loneliness" to #1, you're right. Why is such a poignant tragedy being touched on during such a vulgar act?
    3. Is the bed ergonomic, providing a comfortable posture of leisure and love to observe the pictures???
  • What is the meaning of "I'm a cowboy, toot toot?"
  • BONUS: Could the bed legitimately be a metaphor for the Wild West?
  • Draw a sixth panel that could also serve as the first.
