Congratulations, Baseball

The righteous blog-folk over at i09.com have assembled a scientifically rigorous ranking of “10 scenes from the most ridiculous sports comic ever published,” and it should surprise no one that our fair game comes out on top! Congrats, cowhide and maple, and roll tape …

Indeed, why did Satan challenge a World Series team to a game of baseball? Considering his obvious mechanical flaws, could this possibly be wise? Given his stride length toward the plate, he’s surely overloading his shoulder muscles. Is it a cloven-hoof thing? Does having creepy beast feet lead to an unnatural landing point when airing out the four-seamer? In any event, I worry about our archfiend.

Still and yet, mechanical concerns will not stop me from giving the Angel of Darkness a doughty heckling!

Huzzah, black-hearted belly itcher, huzzah!
