From the expression he's wearing on the last panel, Quentyn either just realized his situation or is in a public setting, if not both.

The next strip is going to be awkward.

If Quentyn is ever featured in a Questoring novel like his heroes, he may want to leave this part out.

Has anyone else noticed the relatively low turnout for Tales of the Questor this month? I think this is the first time it didn't come out ahead of the others. In fact, at the moment it's in dead last this month.

Not unexpected but still....yikes!

Why does the word "busted" suddenly spring to mind after seeing the last panel?

And will likely loose tail hairs, too. He may not be out of trouble yet, not if the red caps decide to go through the wall, too. Quentyn said it was a tight fit. It's been mentioned before that he's somewhat on the small side. Everyone does keep calling him "runt" after all. I doubt the RedCap lead...

I wonder if the "here kitty, kitty, kitty" line was a reference to the elephant graveyard scene in the Lion King. One of the hyenas said it when they cornered the cubs.

That's a pretty cool escape. Do you the RedCap leader actually managed to grab Quentyn in the last panel or is he just reaching for him?

I don't think the Redcaps would be willing to help Quentyn. What's in it for them? Apparently they have a truce with the three gangs: Vipers, Trolls, and Royals and don't seem ready to break it for one "no-name." Besides I wouldn't consider them trustworthy anyway. The enemy of my enemy...is still m...

Personally, I'd advise running. Very fast. Pity he doesn't have his journey boots. Or any kind of foot wear, come to that.

Who or what is a "Toff?"

I hope he doesn't loose his pants, the last thing he needs now is to get arrested for running around in his underwear. Which is probably why he will get busted for something within the next two or three strips, assuming his luck doesn't change from what he's been having for the last ten strips or so.

Can't help but wonder what Penny was thinking in the last panel. Was it incredulity? Did she see Velvet off screen? Or was that a expression of remembrance? Has she ever seen Velvet? Or maybe heard about him from her Grandfather? The one Ben freaked out at Lily's family reunion.

But who are they then? There are three established gangs, none of whom wear red. Vipers wear green and yellow, Trolls wear black, and Royals wear purple.

Could this be a unknown or new gang, or just one guy who doesn't stick to the color rules?

No, one appeared prior to this. I think he was a deer too, the first person to congratulate Tuck on going out with Thelma.

Would you trust anything a surely teenager made? I know I wouldn't want something she prepared for dinner.

Actually, that analysis is pretty spot on in some areas. The perception among the Arabs is that the Israelis understand nothing but force (The Israelis feel the same about the Arabs of course). The Arabs believe that Israel would never have returned the Sinai to Egypt in 1977 if Sadat hadn't gone to...

I was not speaking to defend Islamic Jihad or suicide bombings or justify them in any way. They cannot be. I consider indiscriminate terror, be it in Israel, Britain, the US, Iraq, or anywhere else a kind of fascism. That the bombing was condemned by other Palestinians underlines my point. Not all P...

Uh the Catholo-fascism was from me. I wasn't saying it existed I was citing it, and "Judeo-Bolshevism" as an argument against the belief that Islam or Muslims have a natural affinity towards fascism. It was an example of reducto ad absurdum. Reducing an argument to its most logical, or rather, silli...

The Bahai recognize Prophets who came after Mohammed. According to Muslims, Mohammed was the last. Period. Hence the ostracization and persecution of the Bahai. Were I not born Jewish, I might have given Bahai a lot of thought. But for me conversion is out of the question. And there actually have be...
