Wait. Benedict XVI resigned, right? Does he still get the talking portrait in the Papal Office?

Meanwhile, in the catacombs underneath the Vatican, Ratzinger is being fitted with adamantium claws, founding member of the X-POPES.

The new Pope will be presented to the crowd once he has finished consuming the customary stallion heart without throwing up.

WE HAVE TWO POPES THIS YEAR. Cardinals Sodano and Arinze pulled the old “suicide berries” blackmail.

Just wait until the Quarter Quell edition next year. All the current and former living popes, locked in mortal combat.

WHITE SMOKE! This is either a linguistic coincidence, or the Catholic Church just declared war on the Oglala Lakota.

Now the new pope has to consume all the losing cardinals, to gain their powers.

Please, please, PLEASE let him take the papal name George Ringo I.

This Smoke Cam is pretty much the lamest reality show ever. Hope they don’t renew it for another season.
How the cardinals pick the pope:

A conversation with exactly the right amount of reverence. 😀
It bodes kind of ill that they chose a pope that is under suspicion of human rights violations during the 70s, including the kidnapping of two liberal jesuit priests in ’76. Just after they got rid of the old one that made it a large part of his lifes work to protect pedophiles from prosecution. (Can we get him prosecuted yet?)
Preferred the pic of the pooch. Does that make me a bad person?
