She talks with Buffy, the pink-haired dancer in a pink bikini, who applies lipstick in front of the dressing room lockers. Simone carries her box of stage props while Buffy, in her pink bikini, grins and chats beside her. Morty the talking Necronomicon appears in the lower corner, glowing with irritation as he listens. Buffy throws her hands up proudly in the dressing room, declaring her importance, while Morty the Necronomicon floats beside her with a skeptical expression. Buffy is front and center in her pink bikini, full of confidence. Promotional comic panel titled “Aftercare & Advertising” with three neon pink icons on a black background: a globe with a cursor, a Bluesky butterfly, and a Patreon P shape. Below each icon are links: clubpinktaco.com, profile/zombieroomie.com, and patreon.com/zombieroomie. At the bottom, small text reads: “You don’t need the bonus panel unless you’re after nudity. In that case, you definitely need the bonus panel.”

Panel 1
Simone: Headliner set tonight?
Buffy: Obviously. This place wouldn’t even exist without me.
Simone: Like, figuratively?

Panel 2
Buffy: No. Literally. Building, stage, pole--
Buffy cont'd:--All me.
Morty: If I had a dollar for every time you stole my thunder, I’d finally tip the dancers.

Panel 3
Buffy: I birthed this club into existence.
Morty : Yep. Strip club’s a baby. You’re its mom. I’m its dad. Which makes the customers… yeah, this just got really fucking weird.

Bonus panel for the NSFW tiers on my Patreon. Bonus panels are NSFW, but not needed to get the joke/etc. in the more SFW version.

This is the introduction of the first entirely new character for Club Pink Taco, Simone the stage kitten and server. A stage kitten is the behind-the-scenes hero of a strip club or burlesque show. Their job is to keep performances running smoothly-- they collect discarded clothing, props, and accessories between acts, reset the stage, and make sure everything is prepped for the next performer. Think of them as the stage manager with better eyeliner.

We know Buffy is a bit narcissistic, but she's also apparently got a bit of a complex-- some might say it's deserved based on what she's gone through and done after.

I'm having a lot of fun with being super wacky again with comics. When I wrote last year's Christmas arc for Zombie Roomie, that was more zany than I had been doing comics since the reboot... this new title has been wacky like very old ZR stuff-- if not wackier.
