That third panel of the first comic just makes it. It's still funny if you remove it, but that panel included just makes it top tier.

In 2009, Charles Boyce sent me a very nice email explaining what body english was, because I had never heard that term before.

Thank you for being a reader of Compu-toon. It's always great to receive comments be it positive or negative.The term
body english is used a lot when trying to guide something to its
destination by moving your body to help it out. Like a golfer would do when attempting a putt...a bowler does it when trying to hit the pins.
Thanks again for your readership.

A little boy is pushed down and because of that does not get run over, an old man gets pushed down and because of that does. The circle of life.

Um Moy, if Wilbur actually gets this guy killed or even just wounded by a car, that's kind of past "loveable dopey oaf"

Oh, of course. My first thought was that it was Miss Haru herself in her previous career, but then, she used to be a soldier.

I refuse to believe they'd have the guts to kill that guy in Mary Worth. The worst that'll happen is the car stops short of him and Wilbur wanders on daydreaming and literally running into more people.

Don't worry. The car will swerve to avoid the old man and run down that kid from last week Final Destination style.

Fate and muffins are the two inescapable constants of the Worthverse.

Boyce is even bad at explaining things that he think are his explanations. Bless him.

"English" is just spin, as in when you strike the cue ball left or right of centre to manipulate the way it interacts with other balls on the table.

I like that he either didn't even bother to remember Bok's name or refuses to use it. Good detail.

Also, given that Fria has Giant blood, it's not even the changing times, since clearly the royal family of Frigia were, ah, closely entwined with the Giants long before Korro was a sparkle in his parent's eyes.

True, although I wonder how much of her ascendance to the throne was predicated on "I have ancient blood ties to the giants, I can make peace with them" as opposed to whatever status quo Ancient Enemy stuff there may have been. Just speculation.
