ALT Text: Scene is WAITROSE. Behind it is a staff member, whose name we will soon learn is BECKY. She is dealing with a customer, for now out of shot, while talking to her manager on the phone.
BECKY [on phone]: Yeah, hiya…
2 BECKY: Yes I have a customer here who wants to complain about the Easter eggs.
3 BECKY [putting hand over receiver while addressing the customer stood at the desk in front of her]: Sorry what was your name again?
4 [Pull back to show the customer is a very tall, green-skinned, PAGAN GODDESS, festooned with flowers. Stood next to her is her son, a normal human teenager in a hoodie, who looks mortified by his mum.]
PAGAN GODDESS: Eostre the Pagan Goddess of Fertility
5 BECKY Sorry - Your name is Easter…?
PAGAN GODDESS: Eostre.
6
[Vicky pauses, trying to take this in].
VICKY: Your name is Easter and you want to complain about the Easter eggs.
7 PAGAN GODDESS: Sorry love, what’s your name?
BECKY: Becky
PAGAN GODDESS: Well, Vicky -
8 PAGAN GODDESS: If it was you who’d shagged the solar god of the Equinox to give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here -
TEENAGE BOY: Muuum…
9 PAGAN GODDESS: ….only to have all your efforts totally forgotten by history, you’d have a complaint too!
10 PAGAN GODDESS: Aisle four is full of products, with no hint of the true meaning of the festival!
11 BECKY: You mean… Jesus…?
PAGAN GODDESS: I mean shagging, Vicky.
12 PAGAN GODDESS: Is it too much to see just a little bit of pre-Christian sex in Aisle 4?
transcription for the visually impaired?
Baaaased
Slightly differs from the actual comic, though.
“Give birth to Spring itself” and “hang on, Spring” vs “give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here”
And ends with TEENAGE BOY: MUUUUM
Methinks it was generated. Shame.
Too.
Much.
Fucking.
White.
Space.

Out of curiosity, why do you have an issue with author’s name?
In this specific case?
Do I even need to answer?
Yes, that’s why I asked. Not necessarily in specific case but in general as you keep removing these.
I don’t get it.
In short, to have a better ad free visual experience.
But a signature is not an add? Furthermore it makes you to do more work with cropping etc.
But the result is more beautiful comic that even I prefer to save on my drive, instead of the original.
