Meeting both parties down the middle. Smart. And if they’re idiots, double for your side.

Will the bald and psychic boss within be called C. Nostra Dome-us? XD

This could end badly… I’m surprised no-one has caught on to what “C Nostra” means, though.

I suppose that the meaning of “C. Nostra’ was so obvious that nobody felt the need to mention it. However, I could see a disappointed Sandra finding out that it is merely a conspicuously non-Sicilian exterminator with an odd sense of humor. Also, her hair looks odd.

Of course, the mob may simply send her a photograph of a dead fish if it wishes to avoid hits unless they are absoultly necessary.

Well, Google isn’t helping, so would some of the more world-wise fans mind enlightening me as to this “C. Nostra” punchline?

Try looking up Costa Nostra on Google Ken Cypher. That seems to be what they’re talking about. At least, I think it is.

Closest guess I got is Cosa Nostra Mafia. Took some looking to get that, which a good punchline it does not make. Then again, I might just be dense, so there’s that.

I think the punchline is humane pest control, not C. Nostra. It’s just a little additional joke.

C. Nostra, uh?
As an Italian I can say it reminds me of something…. sadly.
But the strip is funny, anyway.

And laying traps like those would be dangerous to any human who didn’t know about the traps in advance, like Sandra, right?
I’m actually curious in how did Woo know that those are illegal traps, too.

I dont think Sandra’s gunna be havin dealins with the Mafia here. Maybe she’ll buy a bunch of anti-pest stuff and throw it all at the pyscho animal killer woman and hope for the best?

Interesting use of italics in a shop name. ‘Course, there’s Italian before the italics.

(and I can’t believe this hasn’t been said yet…)
Something tells me that this is less humane pest control and more human pest control…and while I hope Sandra’s not aware of that, the fact that she went with her devil would seem to indicate she is…

Humans don’t play fair.
It’s not in our best evolutionary interests to do so, since we didn’t invest in claws or sharp teeth, but in brains and generalization.
I know it’s just a comic, but still.

I like Sandra’s thought processes. Scrap choosing between right and wrong, whichever one comes up with an idea first wins!

Well…she already sold her soul to the devil. Might as well embrace that evil side and give it all she’s got, eh? X D

Come on people, it’s a lighthearted comic. Nothing lethal is going to happen to the nasty woman. Nothing violent, even. I’m sure our artists have some creative and funny solution in mind.
