Makes me both sad and angry just thinking about it.

STUPID OIL SPILL!

GRRRRRR!

Dziva, don’t just sit there and mope! You’re a goddess! Do something to help Merlin! Boody and Sir Dudley need both of you!

And they’ve got an even bigger gulf to cross if they want their homies back.

This arc could go on, like, forever.

And castles made of oil, Slip into the sea, Eventually.

The good news is that oil helps the sand stick together when building castles…

But I guess that’s not exactly GOOD news anyway.

What would the Stygian boatman do if he ran into an oil slick?

I suspect we’ll find out.

BTW, Hugh B., that’s a great icon…

Send in the ekert.

Agree - send the ekert

Does this seem like the summer of anger to anyone else?

1968 was the summer of rage.

This is more like the summer of whining.

Where is Dziva’s headdress? Have we ever seen her without it before? Great hair though.

What good is having magic (or super) powers if you don’t use them?

@my_discworld, Dziva looks frazzled, which is as good a reason as any to lose the headdress.

I see that we are not the only country with undersea oil leaks. http://tinyurl.com/26dyv3q

The old headdress had skulls, so I would call this an improvement.

Sometimes the headdress gets hot, especially in the summer. Dziva has been seen without it before. Here and there. Just check the Mythtickle page on Facebook to see another one of them.

Our young hero, Merlin, would appear to be a bit TOO young for what is being expected of him.

You must’ve been distracted, you omitted the TM after Go Yo
