This is Jesus Retardo (brother of Tricky Retardo, who's married to Juicy, whose best friends are Regular and Ethel). At the Big Climax he beats back all the armies of darkness with a cross in one hand and a switchblade (or switchblade pitchfork) in the other. The tattoo joke was my own idea.

This is based on Phil Austin's great "solo" album, Roller Maidens from Outer Space. Like David Ossman's How Time Flies, it's one of my favorite (semi)Firesign recordings. That's Austin on the TV.
