Couldn’t recall the name offhand. Kept thinking “5 Element / Singing Squid / Orc-Pigs in Space / No, not 5th Elephant” + Liltle Madeline Mouse-feet skittering. Now brain can stop revving.
Old black and white cartoons like Steamboat Willie, well okay technically, Steam boat willie was a talking picture and therefore didn’t require the captions that appear after a characters lips moved but none the less it harkens back to the silver screen cinema.
Does anyone else remember that posting on Dragon Magazine’s letter page oh so many years ago sent by a guy whose 300+ level wizard had destroyed the world of Greyhawk and wanted all players to mail him their character sheets so he could tally his XP award?
The best part was when a huge number of readers sent in letters with their plans to kill Waldorf, and Roger Moore (the mag editor, not the actor) declared that they had succeeded. And then someone sent a letter explaining that his party had resurrected him . . .
Mimic as a Xenomorph with a chest inside his chest is just brilliant. I didn’t get it the first time I read this, trying to think what he could be referencing in a Star Wars scene, before recognizing Leelooline and realizing that it was just “sci-fi movies”, not SW in particular.

PIrate Duel — Monkey Island style? (Hey, where’d Cube go to? And has Rusty caught up yet? “Eat Belt” ala “The Cockroach that Ate Cincinnat”‘)
Cube’s probably taking care of the rest of the pirates in a dashing, heroic, and, most importantly, OFF-SCREEN style.
Cube doesn’t care about the spotlight. He knows his business, and gets to it with minimal distractions.
And where’s the green jello fun in that., hmm?
Madeline as Leeloo is AWESOME.
Yes! Thank you! Leeloo.

Yay for Milla Jovovitch! 😛
Has Mimic always had a chin like that?
What’s holding Madeline’s knee protectors in place? They stick like a mermaid’s sea shells!
“their just B-shells but thanks” lol
I’m glad someone’s been paying attention.
So I wonder if the mimic is going to copy a ninja?
The Belt of Genre-Changing bit may have been the best stuff you’ve ever drawn or thought up. Just completely, utterly brilliant.
can someone explain the second panel? what is it referencing?

Fightin’ a treasARRRRRRRR chest instead a’ gettin’ its booty? That be retARRRRRRded, cap’n PlaidbeARRRRRRRd.
If you don’t get XP for killing the universe, you’re playing the wrong game… 🙂
I concur, but only because when I did it I only killed ‘a’ universe, not ‘the’ universe.

Just to save anyone else the trouble of looking it up now that you mentioned it:

That made my week. Thank you.

I miss Dragon.
First panel really needs a “They’ve gone to plaid!” joke. (Love the plaid lightsaber, tho.)
