Ah, a fellow Gibbonite. I too, believe the dragon is either knocked out or faking it (maybe now they'll leave me alone) if for no other reason than the lack of x's in the ocular area (c8

I don't think that's Shelly and Monica. "Shelly" is too busty and not enough muscley, and "Monica" is blonde.

Is it symbolic, in the Sept. 28th cartoon, that the hilt of the Monica character's sword looks like a fountain pen? I guess the pen is mightier, especially when it's attached to a sword blade.

um, well if that were so, the 27th pic would be similar...
'mightier than the sword' ??? well, only if your opponent has only a pen...
In reality, most good swords need good muscles to wield, and and back in those days, people in general were far stronger,

'Quimby's reign ended when he was killed by a disgruntled poet during an experiment to test the truth of the saying "The pen is mightier than the sword". In his memory, it was amended to read: "The pen is mightier than the sword only if the sword is very small and the pen is very sharp".' ---Terry Pratchett

Oh. That explains why i didn't even have a clue.
I haven't re-read the first two in years; don't care for them particularly (not that i dislike them, or didn't greatly enjoy them when i read themk when they came out); so far as i'm concerned he started in the Right Direction with Equal Rites, and truly hit his stride with Mort - which is where i advise beginning the series for new readers.
