i just saw possession with sarah michelle gellar…which makes me think ‘If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.’ now in princess gina’s case, douglas adams would be wasting time considering. nonetheless, the pragmatic frank might take longer than sarah michelle gellar to convince that a possession has occurred.
I read this particular strip and think that Dave has either itentionally or unintentionally included Peter Falk’s ‘Detective Columbo’ character as part of Frank’s persona. Which means he should figure this whole thing out … just about the time my grandchildren start reading this saga.
Hey Dave, you think you could bump up Frank’s IQ level by 50 points or so?
i use a jiggly jog geiger counter to measure the mammary jocund.
this rates a treacherously amoral 8 out of 10
Personally I hope she does succeed in fooling Bill, or even reconvincing Frank. In these scenarios the person who’s trying to fool the others always fails, well this time I wanna see her succeed, or at least trick them for a good while. Or maybe i just wanna see Bill act totally goofy when Princess “Gina” starts coming onto him.
Uh oh, I sense an imposter in our ranks, Frank, though I’ve gotta say, you can’t hate her for the belly ring. By the way, I’ve gotta ask just what is Giles oggling in the second panel…I’m curious to know if he and I are focusing on the same points of interest.
Also, (bleep) you, Internet Connection for making me miss out on over a week of Billdom. Next time I will not be so civilized…You’ve been warned..
Frank, Frank, Frank. You never, ever question the presence of a button ring on a flat female stomach. You just admire it (not creepily though – twitchy eye).
For some reason, I think the swirly plates look like eyes, the clasp like a nose, and the belly button ring like a mouth…
I can’t unsee it.
Best keep your nose out of other people’s bellybuttons, Fred!
…Frank. Whatever.
One more slip like that and you’re busted, “Gina”…
Ah, swirly boob covers! I remember watching in fascination many moons ago that they sometimes switched directions between panels. I didn’t mention anything at the time because it was too much fun to watch (and could be magic). They have been well-behaved for a long time now (darn it!), but boob covers are never boring.
David, I especially love the expression you gave Gina/DQ in Panel 2 and Frank’s suspicious eye squints. You really captured the window into their inner thoughts.
Methinks Frank’s gonna be in the Dark Queen’s target soon…
Glad to see that Herr David’s playing with the Big Question: where did her black eye go? (And that he implies that more’s going on than the Normal Toon Propensity to Heal of Comic Bodily Damage, invoked by Herr Don as a sort of deus ex cartoonia.)
And oh yeah: tsk, tsk, tsk. Obsession by the Loyal Readership over Jiggly Boobs, Swirly Boob Plates, Navel Rings, and on and on (and on)…
A lot of men (and women) have never learned that modesty is often more exciting than bare skin however strategically exposed.
Hmmm. Something amiss here…. You sure you’re not Princess Julienne, she who chops into little matchsticks? Or Tress Magenta of the Contact Lens? —the first panel
@Johanan Rakkav — objectification gets rid of the drama.
is this not what art is. drawing a few lines, putting a meaning to those lines to which means those lines before an object.
Objectification describes an event when an abstract concept is treated as if it is a concrete thing.
you are making the error of reification. you are treating some lines on the computer screen as if they are real. but those lines (the drawing) is merely an idea from David Reddick.
@TimAllen Hey now, no insulting Columbo. In most cases, Columbo knows who did it very quickly. It’s finding the proof that takes time. He simply allows the killer to provide the proof by letting them “help” with the case and then constantly annoying them till they make their mistake.
Which does indees sound like something Frank might do.
Hurray for Frank and Giles. Giles is looking in astonishment at Frank becuase Frank in his amazing Dragonie powers is starting to figure it out!
And P.S. I love swirly boobie plates. They are awesome. As a girl of ummm…fuller cups, I know how difficult it is to get a good fitting, swirly, boobie plate bra.
Exellently drawn and colored gentlemen. And I have to say Dave, I love the way you can go from action and suspence, right back into comedy without the comic seeming choppy or unorganized. Very well done!
@Pixie == agree the door is now open for frank to show his IQ in different ways he can put 2 and 2 together.
@Johanan Rakkav — women treat their bodies with objectification …. just see how many there are plastic surgeons who do bigger boobs, smaller boobs, fat off belly, a bigger buttocks, eye jobs, and nose jobs. == then go to the hair dresser, and see how many get different hair color or wear wigs.
and by the way, dave, are those botox enhancements i am seeing in the first panel. enquiring minds want to know.
love your artistic flare, dave. you bring artwork to life. i care about the characters, and want to know how they will get through their problems.
I suppose that sooner or later her evil fashion choices will give her away!
So the black eye was a magical illusion? Did the DQ get some of her powers back, or did someone else like the orc mage do the illusion? Or perhaps this isn’t the DQ at all, but a shape shifter pretending to be Gina.
Rutro!.. =)
