Back to the storyboard! (See yesterday’s strip.)

Little does he know that the spear had been rubbed with fecal matter. A slow death ensues…

This is what North Korea attacking the USA would look like.

Spear me the trouble……

Fat chance a silly spear has against adipose!

What a prick!

Yes, we do. Yes, it does.

Well, we can wait around until it gets infected. In a few weeks he’s BBQ.

One of my favorite bits from the movie Rooster Cogburn:

Look, uh, I got me a .22 pepperbox here. Now, this thing shoots five times, sometimes all at once.It is called a lady’s companion, and that is what I intend it be used for when I leave you two off. Now, back in Fort Smith, there is a sportin’ lady named Big Faye. She was shot twice with this thing, but she dresses out at about 290, so, none of the bullets found their way to any of the vitals. But, against ordinary people, this gives good service.

Maybe I am a bit dense, but I don’t understand what’s happening in the third panel? Did they try to spear him again and miss?

Not sure I would eat meat that was green to start with.. I toss mine when it turns green.

Oh, but it does! (He gets up and grabs three of the hunters by the necks…)

“Obesity kills” well, it will if you step on him.

The Roman gladiators ate a special diet that gave them a layer of protective fat over their muscles.

You’re not obese, just gargantuan…

Huck, Nab???

“A mere flesh wound.” Fearless Fosdick

(from Li’l Abner)

Well, bub, it still bleeds, gets infected, and turns to gangrene. A good butcher will simply cut the bad part out and sprinkle on some garlic powder.

Does it hurt? Maybe just a little?

Good aim but you need to work on your forward thrust…..

I have several layers of natural armor.

You mean there’s an upside to my lifestyle? Sweet!
