This story contains the worst translation I’ve ever encountered in Heavy Metal. Look at the dialogue in the second panel. What’s a “waistlock,” exactly? Is that anything like a belt? And I’m fairly sure they meant “odds” instead of “shares” just a sentence later.

Aside from that, it’s a passable story. The art even suits the subject matter.
