Rabbits Against Magic by Jonathan Lemon for August 15, 2013

@Simpson, yeah but only one panel for the lead-in to the pun? Pastis has been framed…

@Brian, wouldnt Pastis be AT the beer amusement park? He might be the drunk in the castle?

Fantastic!

And she wasn’t kidding eitherCause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddockI’d ever seen come down the pikeHe was covered with mussels

He came over to me and said“Listen, shrimp, don’t you come trollin’ around here”What a crabThis guy was steamedI could see the anchor in his eyes

I turned to him, I said“A-balone, you’re just being shellfish”Well, I knew it was going to be trouble and so did Gil‘Cause he was already on the phone to the cods

The haddock hits me with a sucker punchI catch him with a left hookHe eels overIt was a fluke but there he wasLying on the deck, flat as a mackerelKelpless

I said “Forget the cods GilThis guy’s gonna need a sturgeon”Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriendShe came over to me, she said“Hey, big boy, you’re really a game fishWhat’s your name”I said “Marlin”— Kip Addotta

love it!

Just because he cod?

Rather fishy, but upscale.

“Pearls” are everywhere.

BTW, is that just his tail in the first panel?

I love cross strip puns.

Uh-oh. Better prepare for “Punny Pastis”!

Fun one, as my Random comic tonight.
