Holy angel of God! This is so bizarre that I love it! In essence, Cosmo the Victory Bug is God or something close to it. It even seems to have the power to turn someone over to Satan. At least that what he says that he's doing and he tended to be rather literal everywhere else in the book.
I will say that the combination of "Mad Magazine" style art and dialog combined with relatively serious and straight-faced discussions is hard to reconcile. I just wish that I knew how Cosmo distinguished between victory, hope, and bravery for the two or three sides of a conflict. I have to think through this one.
