It's a dark joke about a man who made a bargain with the devil for a steady income in exchange for having to write and draw 365 Heathcliff strips a year until the end of time.

Dunno, I think its supposed to be phantom of the opera but obsessing over meat? So without heathcliffe it males no sense to me - unless he thinks its actually supposed to actually be a joke about organs and meat?

So Heathcliff teamed up with the meat store to produce an opera about gay to be released during Pride month? Sounds about as HAM fisted as a lot of corporate attempts to turn support into exploitation. Apparently not even Westfinster isn't safe from the corporate pandering. And now we know where Heathcliff gets all this money to buy blimps and meat tanks. Those lucrative pride contracts.

That's quite gay.

I feel like meat would be more of a Gilbert & Sullivan light opera, rather than a Puccini sort of thing. But this is the first time in my life I've ever thought about that, so I could definitely be wrong.
