My Flesh & Fur deuteragonist, Jobe, has already been eaten by six Disney villains, one of whom has eaten him twice -- Legend of Tarzan villains Tublat, the evil gorilla, and Kaj, the evil Leopard Man who worked in the service of Queen La, Merlock, the main villain of Duck Tales: the Movie - Raiders of the Lost Lamp, even a human predator, Stromboli, the gypsy serving as a minor villain from Pinocchio, the feral form of the evil Shere Khan from The Jungle Book, the anthro form of Shere Khan from Tale Spin, and, most recently, Tick-Tock, the evil, Hook-obsessed crocodile from Peter Pan! We will again continue this series of comics involving Jobe getting eaten by more of my favorite Disney villains. As I have said before, I'd always imagined them making meals out of me. As Jobe is based on me, appearance-wise and personality-wise, he'd be the closest thing I could have to me getting eaten by these villains myself. So I could live it vicariously through him, so to speak.

In this short story, Jobe has re-formed from his digestion by Tick-Tock and has now moved on to the opera house of an unnamed city (as far as I know, at least), where he will meet his next villain: the evil, fame-starved Sewernose de Bergerac, a one-shot villain from Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers. And just like the previous winners, this encounter will obviously end the same way it did with all of the others. . . .

The large alligator stepped into the dressing room, continuing to look at Jobe, who likewise continued to look up at him.
“For that matter, I know not whom you would be!” Jobe added to the large alligator.
The alligator simply put his own hand over his chest and sported a prideful look on his face. “Then allow me to remedy that,” he said. “I am Sewernose de Bergerac, and I am here to make a meal of Clarence Dudley, an opera star whose place I intend to take in the upcoming show.”
Sewernose, as a young alligator, had been accidentally flushed down the toilet and forced to live his life growing up in the sewers of his hometown. However, he’d spent most of his time in the sewers beneath the city’s opera house, and as such, he heard the music over the course of years and had gained a love and appreciation for opera. Eventually, that grew into a desire to become an opera star himself.
That very evening, Sewernose was planning to make his own operatic debut by doing as he’d just told Jobe — kidnapping and devouring the lead of the opera, Clarence Dudley, and replacing him. It was how he dealt with most victims in his life. Like any normal alligator, despite his eloquent, poised, well-spoken demeanor, Sewernose engaged in the predatory lifestyle by eating any victim he hunted down and captured. Shortly before Jobe’s appearance in Dudley’s dressing room, he had just attempted to make a meal of the very animals who’d tried to stop his plan: the Rescue Rangers — two chipmunks named Chip and Dale, and two mice named Gadget Hackwrench and Monterrey Jack. Accompanying them was their fly friend, Zipper, but he had not been a near-victim of Sewernose’s hunger.
Jobe looked around the dressing room once more and spread both arms to his sides as he saw that he and Sewernose were the only two people in the dressing room. “Well, as you can see,” he said, “he is not here.”
“Apparently not,” Sewernose said, also looking around.
But then, he got an idea as he looked back at Jobe. A very sinister, deadly idea.
“But seeing as how I am nonetheless hungry, and that you are here before me,” he said, grinning evilly and hungrily as he then put his face into Jobe’s, “you will just have to do until he returns.”
Jobe, meanwhile, looked surprised and scared all at once. He knew very well where this was going. . . .
