Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 03, 2024

Ewwwww…

You better give them back. Otherwise, you’ll have robbed her blind.

That’ll be a real eye sore!

How does human eye sight compare to unicorn eye sight. I’m thinking Marigold will be disappointed. “Poor pitiful Phoebe cannot see the color of magic.”

Ouch!

………..No Arthur Dent, we little white mice need to read your mind, but it must be removed, treated, er….diced!

Sort of like the saying “Try to look at the situation through someone else’s eyes”!

Look me in my brand new EYE

This is getting weird. Run and tell your parents!

O wad some Pow’r the giftie gie us

To see oursels as ithers see us!

It wad frae mony a blunder free us,

An’ foolish notion:

What airs in dress an’ gait wad lea’e us,

An’ ev’n devotion!

Oh, would some Power the gift give us

To see ourselves as others see us!

It would from many a blunder free us,

And foolish notion:

What airs in dress and gait would leave us,

And even devotion!

She’s seen everything?! I knew I should have wiped my web brouser!

… didn’t they swap bodies a while back? Surely Marigold saw using Phoebe’s eyes then!

Woah that’s gonna be creepy looking!.

Or will they look like the puppy dog eyes Marigold did once?.

And will Phoebe get Marigold’s eyes or just have empty sockets until she returns them?.

I would be screaming no right now I think.

just the idea of giving up my eyes for a few seconds and being vulnerable to everything is unbearable.

Brilliant way for Dana to introduce horror ideas into our minds.

on a better note, I’d like it if finally we got to know if Marigold sees the same colors as a human or not or if she is in fact colorblind like other animals.

I absolutely can’t wait to SEE what this becomes.

Is she trying to obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan?

I don’t think it works like that. Maybe if she could read her mind… but I want to what she looks like with her eyes, you know?

The eyes have it. The motion passes.

I don’t like where this is going.

Sorry, Marigold, but that’s not how it works.

Are they going to switch bodies?

Nope. Can’t see it. Not at all.

Wait…are we about to do a Freaky Friday storyarc? Because that could be fun!

The last three speech bubbles would make a great entry into Revtrosity’s “Saying lots of things as (Character)” series.

This strip is taking a turn. This would be a great Halloween storyline.

Is this gonna be like that scene in The Mummy? ;)

Demand a really big damage deposit first, Phoebe.

Maybe you can forge a telepathic connection? The eyes “merely” transport visual information, but it’s the brain that makes us see.
