Am I missing something or is it because it's a pun I'm not getting?
The God of Thunder, Penne ala Lightning, is now being referred to as Penne ala Vodka. There was nothing previous to this, everyone (including himself) just out of nowhere started calling him that.
Why doesn't it make any sense to me?

The odd bit is that when he names himself, VODKA is clearly bolded as if we're supposed to notice it. But if he were just suddenly revealing his dastardly real name, I'd expect either Torg to not use it two panels before, -OR- the Analysiser to have reported it last strip. So yeah, I'm lost here too.

Hey guys! Sorry about that. Meant "Penne ala Lightning". Wrote "Penne ala Vodka". There were 3 things working against me. I was rushing due to travel, I was traveling due to travel and holiday plans (working on the road results in sloppier work I've found) and I was preparing Penne ala Vodka that very night! My head was not in the game and it shows even in stick-figure mode! It's fixed now!
Anywho happy 2015 everybody!
