Commentary

Panel 1

Who knew it would be easier to draw chili and fire than a fork?

Panel 2

I think panel 2 is the most detailed panel in Com'c so far. Definitely. Might as well strike out "I think". No, not that "I think", the other "I think" before this. Ugh, I give up. Auto-strikethrough is so hard to control.

Wait, what? No, that's not even "I think", that's "give"! Now you're just messing with me, auto-strikethrough.

Anyway, what was I saying. Oh yeah, panel 2. The fire was tricky-ish to make, but for once the spray paint tool was useful.

Panel 3

As for panel 3, yes, that is the waiter talking off-panel. And yes, that's smoke coming out of Marc's mouth.

Other

The waiter could have become a character shown on-panel, but I decided against it. Also, the title isn't lying - if the waiter had been included as a visible character, Marc could have been seen in panel 1 ordering "your least spicy meal" (the "Mexican Firethrower Lite").

...I wonder how Max Pice (which for the record is a name I made up and not a real restaurant from what I can tell) treats people who order their most spicy meal.

They probably have to sign a waiver or something.
