Ralph, you are a twisted SOB.

Mebbe so....but don'cha just LOVE the expression on Quentyn's face in the last panel? Hilarious.....perfect "Bill The Cat" look. Well...at least the 'rents ain't upset with him......although it's gonna be real hard for our boy here to try and explain what happened w/o mama cracking up an' good ol' Pa tryin' t' keep a straight face.

Wonder if Squidge told them about Meribeth being in the audience?

S'aaruuk

*holding sides* Hehe! The evil old goat strikes again!

Ahh the silent treatment .... sorta

that second last panel had me worried for a split second, i can only imagine how quent felt ... WHAT A CRUEL CRUEL TRICK TO PLAY RH!

although im happy that he seems to have gotten a good reception for once ^^

Yup. My parents would probably have the EXACT same reaction.

That he is.

From my own experience whenever I laugh at my kids when they do something stupid it has a much better (and longer lasting) impact than when I yell at them.

Told you, I did, he wasn't in near the trouble he thought he was...

Looking again at the first and second frames ... It almost looks as if his father is following quent around the room with that newspaper.

Must not look at kid, try not to laugh, must not look at kid, try not to laugh ....

Very funny. I always thought the expression was "buck nakid" but that might be a bit too colourful language for rac conan if they hold the white stag as a religious symbol so "Butt" instead of "Buck" is like "Cripes" instead of "Christ" or "Hokey" instead of "Holy" to us.

Hey RH, there is a bad button image on you comic main page (I'm using Firefox browser) linking to:

(If I take off the extra f I get a single white pixal and same goes for then changing 02 to 01)

I made these for you:

Ha ha haaaa!! Oh, c'mon, I knew they weren't really giving him the cold shoulder. Whatever his parents may be, they're not total jerks.

OH! Air! AIR! (gasps for air)......RH, THAT WAS WONDERFUL!

Its one of those gags that you see coming a split second before its hits, then WHAM! it smacks upside the head froma completely differant direction! GENIUS! I love it, and, of course, I can't wait till next one.

And for those that don't know, there is a BIG differance between being NAKEDand being NEKKID.

Being naked means that you do not have any clothes on...

Being nekkid means you aint go no clothes on and you up to something!

I don't think my mother would even try to hold it in.

Anyway, now it is time for hugs and healing.

"Momma? Could you please start crying?"

Boy that strip is great. I love the way Pa has hide behind the newspaper and coughs to keep from cracking up. Mom cannot look at Quentyn and is doing well hiding behind her dish towl when Quentyn asks her not to cry but she she totally loses it with the Butt Nakkid Remark.

I made these for you:

You forgot "Toons" "Characters" "E-mail" and "Games".

But the party wasn't out in the lawn.

no but the questor was (when he was leading the guards (remember he didn't turn himself in because there was a female amidst them) on a merry chase and I think that's what he was referring to.)

you should try looking at this thing with our slow dial up connection where the picture S.L.O.W.L.Y. starts appearing from the top down and it makes you wait. the tension! the TENSION!!!

it reminds me of a Calvin and Hobbes tenth anniversary book we've got where the author makes commentaries about the page or panels therein. on one page he quoted this "you die a thousand deaths before you even get into trouble" or in this case get laughed at.

my fearfull side was going all "oh no! they're gonna disown him and he's gonna be all depressed and turn his back on everyone and yadda yadda yadda!!!" it just wouldn't shut up!

I nicname this comic "you know your parents love you when... )

the main page already has:

but a button like:

would be nice if there was a character page to link to (hint hint)
