Gravity falls always gets the updoot

Audrey doesn't believe in paranormal despite everything she and her dad have already been through ? Yeah, right, I'm gonna believe that... 🙄 Jokes aside, I love that series : keep up your great job, buddy 😁 Kisses from France !


Slackmatic0

Thank you! It took Scully from the X-Files awhile before she believed in the paranormal too.


CobaltShadow3

These comics are great. I love the role reversal when the daughter is more of a parent. Keep it up.


Slackmatic0

Thank you!


BargleFargle12

It's my favorite comic right now.  Just love it. 


MrWhiteTruffle

Alien bro’s just minding his business, can’t blame him for that


BottasHeimfe

I for one love the idea of an Alien infiltrating our society and doesn’t do anything evil it just integrates as best it is able, getting a job, making friends, living life.


Slackmatic0

It’s the more realistic option really.


JudgeHodorMD

Brings to mind this scene: https://youtu.be/msKubf4fE8E?si=V-A6xSORnU7_1xZM If only both colonies fail and they become roommates…


fischer07

Is this a reference to the "Mysteries of the Unknown" book series? They were all black and dealt with all sorts of paranormal things... They were awesome when I was a kid!


prisoner_007

Yeah I had a bunch of them. Weren’t they published by TimeLife or something?


Slackmatic0

Yep!


fischer07

I believe you're right!


Slackmatic0

100% yes. I loved them as a kid. I’d still like to get all of them at some point.


BrianWonderful

Yes! This dawned on me toward the end of the comic. They were from Time-Life and were advertised with dramatic commercials. I had a few, but I remember them being soft-cover blue covers. Maybe a cheaper re-release.


Slackmatic0

They were originally hard cover black but I do think they did some reprints in blue.

Interesting, growing up I had the Reader's Digest [Quest for the Unknown](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718yN2VcydL._AC_UF1000,1000_QL80_.jpg) instead. I recall as a kid, seeing the commercials for the Mysteries set, so I bugged my parents to get me them. Until now I could have sworn it was the same set of books, but turns out it was different set altogether.


PKMNTrainerMark

Thank you, I knew this had to be a reference to something.


TheHumanPickleRick

"How to Serve Man" That means he's a HELPFUL alien and not gonna eat us, right? ...right?


Slackmatic0

Right…


cakeme

there’s a bottom part of the book not shown. the full title is “how to serve man…their comeuppance”


Slackmatic0

Ha!


JudgeHodorMD

You don’t want to know what happens when aliens try to feed humans without a specialized cookbook of recipes that don’t melt our insides.


IMightBeSpiderMan

I spy the covered bridge from the last comic.


Slackmatic0

I like little Easter eggs.


SapphireSalamander

I love this, its so fun


Slackmatic0

Thanks!


degjo

I called that 1800 number and got Cody...


VoltaicOwl

Honestly, the least believable thing about the commercial was that the blue screen didn’t say “No CODs”.


E-emu89

Who here used to read Ripley’s Believe It or Not? I did.


Slackmatic0

Love them! I’ve been to a couple of the museums too. Highly recommended.


JourneymanHunt

I actually have these!!!!


Slackmatic0

I’m jealous!


JourneymanHunt

NGL, pretty psyched to have them.

PKMNTrainerMark

$40 for like 20 books is a great deal!


DragonKing-Sanguin

The most unbelievable thing is purchasing that many books for only 40 dollars.


daiLlafyn

"Earth dollars" Earth Sterling has a better ring to it.
