Weird Wasp....Tuesday?

I was getting kind of down in the dumps about not having any ideas for comics for a while, but I just had to find an excuse to draw an Evaniid today. The other two came into the picture afterward. Sometimes, it can be quite a challenge to come up with an idea or scenario that incorporates some kind of joke or pun related to certain insects, especially wasps.

I'm glad this one worked out. I suppose it would have made more sense to draw an ootheca in the picture, although I am curious about wether the ootheca "appears" externally after mating? I've seen photos of female Periplaneta americana without oothecae, either that, or I'm blind, lol. I welcome any advice or corrections!

The original accompanied caption:

When cockroaches are on the menu... Ampulex compressa and Evania appendigaster are both cockroach parasitoids. A. compressa is known for "zombifying" cockroaches, by stinging them in the brain and then dragging them into the wasp's burrow by the antennae. An egg is then laid on the host. E. appendigaster, aka Ensign wasps, parasitizes roach oothecae by laying eggs into the cockroach egg cases. They also distinctively have vivid blue eyes.

This will be an interesting match! Who will win!? 🤔 😆

(Also, if rock-paper-scissors doesn't require hyphens, I can easily remove them).

It's 1:03 a.m. EST. I'm trying to make friends with this cockroach. They're bathed in light from my purple porch light and also hanging out near my toes and feet, but won't come closer. Though, as I move my feet closer, they don't run off like their companions. So, I think I've made a friend. I need to think of a name. . . . #cockroach #american #smokybrown #palmettobug #americancockroach #smokybrowncockroach #palmetto #pineneedles #cigarettebutts #friends #friemdsnotfoes #pleasedonttouchme #crawl #donttouchme #bugs #bug #insect #friendly #friend #purplelight (at Raleigh, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgOMXMnsDdi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
