I think I understand the last panel! The reflection you see when you say “Bloody Mary” in front of a mirror… is actually a being from another universe, which can sometimes connect to this one, through the looking glass, as it were.
You are as strange to her as she is to you. And if both of your magical efforts happen to synchronize perfectly and the connection happens, she will be eager to photograph you, to prove to her friends that you really exist.
The first thing Bloody Mary does is snap a pic of girl with her digital camera. I bet that pic is on Bloody Mary’s FB already. To access her FB you have to log on to FB and say “Bloody Mary” 3 times while moving your mouse in a circle.
There’s hard work in the old ways of doing things, which, I’ve noticed fairly quickly extinguishes the magic, except in the masochistic, the obsessive, and the poor who got stuck there and do it out of necessity without seeing any magic, just hard work.

Life is where everything happens.
Of course we keep seeing these dead tourists, and of course they don’t realise how annoying they are.

You don’t understand. I am so scared of Bloody Mary. It is like a lifetime terror. I seriously still get antsy around mirrors at night.
I am 33.
Good God. This strip will give me nightmares tonight. Okay, not really, but I will think of it when I go to the bathroom this evening.

Bloody Mary is actually Robert Mapplethorpe.

Your comic rocks. Love the conversations and the characters and how they mix the artist style and body language of everyone. Brilliant!

I think Grrrl is right — what magic is there when we look backwards? It’s like looking at a picture of last year’s best apples.

It only works right if you say Bloody Mary three times, not four.

But what is the present?

Dragging ass this morning after having too much fun last night. Office cubicle is starting to spin. I could use a bloody mary about now…

Still in love with the fact that Cat was thinking of postage in the 2nd panel.
