You've read my mind, Huggy. There's a newspaper comic strip from the 1960s called "Sam's Strip" - by Mort Walker ("Beetle Bailey") and Jerry Dumas - that used to work visits from other comic strip characters into their own daily strips. In one strip, for example, Blondie crosses past Sam and sidekick Silo on the way to her own daily cartoon. Hugbot's strips have been giving me the same sort of vibe and for a long time I've wondered how to have a recognisable comic character appear, without cribbing (say) the Blondie joke. Hugbot has not only done it, but done it well, and in fact, has already been bringing in famous faces such as the Cookie Monster and the Witch from Narnia. Huggy is a mind-reading wizard. But, Hugbot, that doesn't let you off the hook. I see what you did with the cinema trip strip, suggesting all the unfettered graphic nudity was my idea. Nothing could be further from the truth! The words "unfettered graphic nudity" never passed my lips. "Unfettered artistic graphic nudity", yes, but not "unfettered graphic nudity"! (What will Editorial say? I think they will live up to their name and my 'ed will get 'it!) Every time I read the words "in the nip", I can't help but hear it in Father Dougal's voice (from "Father Ted"). "Paul Darrow in the nip" needs to go on a t-shirt. It doesn't need pictures, just those words. |

Thanks for mentioning that. I looked up the strip - seems to be brilliant. From the few examples I read, the fourth wall gets shattered more often and more thoroughly than in an Advent Calendar story by TT! I see what you did with the cinema trip strip, suggesting all the unfettered graphic nudity was my idea. Nothing could be further from the truth! I thought I'd give you the complete writing credits as you did write the essential joke, even if I put it into a different context. Every time I read the words "in the nip", I can't help but hear it in Father Dougal's voice (from "Father Ted"). Actually, the only times I ever heard the expression "in the nip" was in Father Ted. "Paul Darrow in the nip" needs to go on a t-shirt. It doesn't need pictures, just those words. I think certain ladies would insist on having a picture to go with the words!
