Ah, nothing beats ending on a cliffhanger. I eventually stopped trying to do end-of-the-week cliffhangers because a lot of readers miss the Saturday strip anyway. But this one's great because the cliffhanger starts on Friday and continues through Saturday without advancing the plot. So nobody misses out!
And, yes, I worried about the magically changing haircuts.

My favorite strip in this arc has always been the one where Dave wonders why he doesn't look more like J-Lo.

Saturday:
Personally, I'm more concerned about those magically changing skeletons - as indicated by Dave losing many inches off the top. That part of the transformation not only defies biology but is also likely to be the most painful aspect.
Mentioning that they're in a comic strip: 23.
Indeed, why
doesn't Mell have to go through with this? ...Well, the reason for this is best explained by my new fanfic, "
Mell and Testosterone: Together at Last ", which might or might not be available
here.
