Tip, make sure they're happy! Inspire them, make it snappy! Treating friends like crap, we see her stress! Each time Captain Bram would zap, he'd Add a little ruthlessness!
Michael Brewer (wusemajor) says:
So, is this one the equivalent of that time on the desert island in Narbonic?
We pulled a heavy dogsled, Made tracks across the snow ... We very soon could be dead, As we rest on this plateau ... We're hungry, cold, and weary, But Sweetheart's eyes shine clear ... And the northern lights shine eerie In the ionosphere ...
I'd tell her I adore her, And I cannot look away As her face, lit by aurora, Turns a brighter shade of grey ...
Thankfully, Shaenon and Jeffrey aren't so predictable as the foreshadow the (eventual) end of Skin Horse so directly here. Sweetheart, with Tip, as a wolf, in Canadia? Not likely.
Sweetheart, with Tip as a lemur, in Hawaii, though...
Rob (rrreed) says:
No, if Narbonic is anything to go by, Sweetheart will have to spend time as a human before there's any decision on settling down.
Besides, there's still Dr. Lee to consider!
Benjamin Whetham (crosshair) says:
Poor Tip, stuck as a a wolf with dichromatic vision.
Michael Brewer (wusemajor) says:
Well of course he isn't. She's back at the main camp.
Naomi H (starbright) says:
Did Tip somehow never hear of the Great Coffee Rampage?
@johnwwells: *golf clap*golf clap*golf clap* Very well done! My virtual hat's off to you ...
(TUNE: "Hit The Road, Jack", Ray Charles)
It's coital lock! Be careful, now Doc- Tor Tip, don't slip, don't slip, don't slip! It's coital lock! Be careful, now Doc- Tor Tip!
Oh Sweetheart, oh Sweetheart, are you all right? I'm sorry that we had that little fight ... Yeah, sex with Sparkle would not be smart, 'Cause nothing could pry our parts apart! And then I'd be stuck inside, Even using Astroglide! (Oooh, ow!)
It's coital lock! Be careful, now Doc- Tor Tip, don't slip, don't slip, don't slip! It's coital lock! Be careful, now Doctor Tip! Make sure you're feet don't slip ... Better get a good strong grip ... She's the minority whip ... Careful, now Doctor Tip ...
John Ames (commodorejohn) says:
Is this what "the talk" is like for dogs?
clark brooks (czark) says:
Awww - Tip looks just like Artie not understanding people ^H^H dogs - so cute!
(TUNE: "Bridge Over Troubled Waters", Simon And Garfunkel)
You're a zombie ... You're undead ... And when you face Your foes, You might lose your head! A sight to see, You've achieved entelechy With blood and guts galore! And that darn U.N. resolution Means there won't be more!
The U.N.'s called a Tribunal Bet your henchmen's funerals That tribunal Will be fun!
Just thinkin' bout that Tribunal Scares away the goon'll Very soon'll Feel my gun!
When they've run out of armies to disarm me I'll say thanks for the hand, and sew one on! Oh!
It's time to convene Tribunal! Bring your death machine to the tribunal don't be late! Tribunal! Tribunal! Top secret tribunal! You're my very special day!
Andrew Kunz (miyaa) says:
Oh, come on. No one ever follows UN resolutions.
Bill Livingston (billfl) says:
Isn't the official UN Resolution set to 1280 X 960?
And what plans would those be, Miz Sweetheart? I still swear she's chasing Tip's tail (or would like to, at any rate.)
Camille Dumas (camidumas) says:
Yeah, I'm kind of alarmed about the hints of a Tip+Sweetheart romance. Tip is an extraordinary character and he would have to become ordinary, in an psychologically unrealistic way, for a relationship between him and Sweetheart to work.
Ronnie Simonds (ronrab) says:
Naw, the teases about a relationship are totally just for laughs.
Camille Dumas (camidumas) says:
I don't think so -- it goes back to Sweetheart being angry that Tip doesn't regard her as a 'real woman'.
Pete Bleackley (petethemadscientist) says:
As Dave once put it "I forget how often my hypotherical statements have serious answers round here."
(TUNE: "I Just Can't Wait To Be King", Elton John & Tim Rice)
We're on the run; here comes the sun ... Hey, what if I change back? Can't help our cause with two less paws, A tail and coat I'd lack! In knee-deep snow at ten below, The frostbite risk is real! And I'll find out, without a doubt, Just how brass monkeys feel! Yes, we'd be adrift if I should shift my shape ... Oh, I hope I wait to go ape!
He'll pull together your team You'll think he's heaven-sent He'll rekindle all your dreams Get you elected President He'll look deep into your eyes Where spilled coffee lies Hey Sweetheart he's the leader of your pack He's a dog, he's a man He's a ladykiller, werewolf They're barking his name across this snow-struck land - But he ain't gonna kiss Your fluffy rear end
Drew (pseudowolf) says:
Umm....what just happened? I feel like I've missed something between panel 1 and 4.
(Tune: "Puff, the Magic Dragon" by Leonard Lipton and Peter Yarrow, in memory of
Mary Travers)
Tip, the urpy werewolf pulled a sled with Unity,
And frolicked in the winter snow without dear Dr. Lee,
Captain's Fancy Sweetheart made plans that need Tipwolf,
To save Fairbank's inhabitants from looking just like Rowlf.
(chorus) Tip, the urpy werewolf pulled a sled with Unity,
And frolicked in the winter snow without dear Dr. Lee.
Tip, the urpy werewolf pulled a sled with Unity,
And frolicked in the winter snow without dear Dr. Lee.
Together they would carry a cure for Bram's Revenge,
A vaccine whose dispersal can't be done with a lozenge,
Racing other werewolves that lacked Tipwolf's restraint,
But under north auroras bright, urpy Tip felt faint! Oh,
(chorus)
Shapeshifters have one thing that they can never change,
To stay one form forevermore to them is rather strange,
No telling when each one of them will feel the shape-change push,
And Tip, et al, forgot this fact—so he urped into a bush!
Will Tip now need less waxing? Or will he now need more?
Can he pull the rescue sled with Sweetheart's doggy corps?
Stay tuned to this comic through this werewolf moment,
Will Tip the wolf psychologist escape this new torment!
So It Begins (soitbegins) says:
Hoooo boy. Now I'm sure something's going to happen.
Kita Ross (lithium_delusions) says:
Third panel: Not hard to see exactly where Unity is looking!
Dave Van Domelen (dvandom) says:
Even naked, he manages to cross-dress. Check out the frilly lichen!
Kealakalai Barela (arrowatch) says:
Tip naked looks masculine, but somehow... incomplete. Wait... Nobody remembered to bring Alice?! I'm very disappointed in Tips forethought and Sweethearts leadership abilities...
Is there any woman out there who enjoys a boy, yes, Not affected by his superpower? Just remember that he only does it to annoy us ... Sweetheart, could you leave us for an hour?
Oh, Ti-ip ... (*sigh*) Oh, Ti-ip ... (*sigh*)
Showing off his naked butt, We all can see exactly what He's got ... Plus, he's a psychologist Who knows how girls like to be kissed! He's hot! Got Quite a lot!
Oh, Ti-ip ... (*sigh*) Oh, Ti-ip ... (*sigh*)
John Ames (commodorejohn) says:
Man, for standing naked in the snow, he looks pretty energetic. John Quincy Adams would be proud.
Maricruz Villalobos-Zamora (maki_p) says:
No way! I though it was one species at the time! Man naked man got power.
It even works on the other side of the fourth wall! D:
Also, is his hair longer?
Either way, I like the shaggy look on him. Rawr! :3
Jon Stout (brasswatchman) says:
Jeez. Since when has freaking *UNITY* been drinking the Tipp kool-aid? Up until now, I just figured that that part of her brain(s) was devoted to killing things and taking names.
William Tracy (afishionado) says:
Just so you guys know, Skin Horse is now the second result in a Google search for "coital lock". Congratulations.
