The more Arnold uses this format of strip, the more I focus on the things that we catch Arnold's teacher saying in panel one to set up the gags/punchlines. I get the impression that this guy's lesson plans are very loose.

My translator app gets nothing scanning it (imagine telling me 20 years ago we could do that with a phone...) and I can't be arsed to install a Cyrillic keyboard to see if the font's the issue.

I can't tell if the Overboard guy is being progressive and this is actually intended to be a trans duck, or if, like every other animal he draws, he just doesn't know what female mallards look like.

I know that Aleta is a Just and Honorable Queen and all that, but she did kinda take a leave of absence from her homeland while still claiming authority (yes yes she was originally kidnapped, but she could have come back after a while).

The colour is slapped on by some secondary party who barely reads the strips*, so it's shakey grounds to assume the Overboard guy intended them to be mallards. Perhaps a female Lesser Scaup.

*at least, this is the case for many strips posted here.

Well this is Funky Winkerbean; in a world where Lisa was the only (or at least, the first) person to ever have cancer, we can assume that marriage is a rarity here. In the Funkyverse maybe only 10,000 people currently alive worldwide have ever been married.
