It's Cyber Monday, a day for online shopping. The internet wasn't really a thing during Eerie's original run, so this is your chance to explore what that might look like. Does Mr. Wilson pop up as a helpful recommendation feature on Amazon? Is The Donald responsible for deceptive-yet-still-legal pricing techniques? What havoc is raised by Things Incorporated's early attempts at a price comparison site?

Milk pooled in the cracks on the sidewalk, trickling into gutters and turning the run off cloudy and white. Simon picked up a discarded carton, turning to the picture of an unsmiling Steve Konkalewski beneath the "missing child" banner.

"His eyes have been pecked out," he whispered, hugging himself inside his over-sized hand-me-down sweater. "Marshall, do you think the ravens have joined forces with the creepy garbage guys?"

Marshall shook his head.

"No," he said. "The ravens never align with anyone outside of other corvids. Plus the garbage men don't even have eyes, so as far as the ravens are concerned, they don't really exist."

Simon clutched the mangled cardboard to his chest, his own eyes darting nervously about.

"What do you think did it, then?" he asked, his voice still hushed. "Is someone going to war with the Eerie Dairy? Is that prophecy the Zoltar machine made about the Mooncalf descending from on high and feeding all of Eerie to the Great Moon Maw finally coming true?"

Marshall looked up, his eyes squinting against the bright and cloudless blue of the winter sun.

"Worse," he said, and pointed.

Above them wheeled a flock of seagulls

"Oh no," said Simon.
