The Comic Strip That Has A Finale Every Day by John "Scully" Scully for July 19, 2019

The Tale of the Giant Frog Creature from Outer Space (Ep #16) :

“The ancient alien ship was never an alien ship. It was one of our own ancient ships!”, says Dr. Frogestein.

“Aha, so that explains the long forgotten ancient frog language Bribbitta which was written all over the control panels and the rest of the ship. I recognised that language when I saw my wife reading a book on the ancient frog languages the other day* (*see episode 5 on July 5, 2019). But now, she and my kids are in danger. I’ve got to rescue them!”

“Don’t be a fool, Brekk. It’s obviously a trap and you’ll all get killed if you go there. And the writer is a stupid bear who is hell bent on not doing any of the convenient coincidental easy way out of your protagonist predicament that you usually see in movies and most of such fictional works. We’ve got to outwit the supreme ruler and his frogs using our brains and that’s the only way. What we need is a crafty plan”, says Dr. Frogestein.

“Okay, doc. You’ve probably got a blueprint to that palace of…”, said Brekk, but Dr. Frogenstein interrupts him, “No, that dumb movie trope won’t work. I told you that bear is adamant on not doing that trope. What we’ll do is call for a truce; peace talks with an offer to stop the rebellion as we all face a common enemy from outer space who may attack us anytime. Also, something is the forcing the snake creatures out of their sanctuary. They’re an additional threat if they choose to attack us.”

With a heavy heart, Brekk gives a croak of approval and says, “I don’t trust that looney ruler. If something bad happens to my family, I’ll hold you responsible, doc.”

“Okay, Brekk, I understand”, says the doc and proceeds to send a message to the supreme ruler."
