Issue 2(1998) - The Puppies and The Troublesome
Fireworks
The image will take some time
to load...
TRANSCRIPT:-
Frame 1: The puppies had a problem. They had been invited to a
bonfire, and promised they would bring all the fireworks. But the shops were
closed!
Frame 2: As they were heading to the party however they had a
stroke of luck
Frame 3: They passed a wizard, who was selling fireworks by
the side of the road
Frame 4: They bought the fireworks. But these were
magic fireworks (surprise, surprise). They automatically went off whenever the
password 'Light' was said
Frame 5: Button activated the first one - "We
better hurry up! It's not very light out here!"
Frame 6: All the puppies
were blasted away
Frame 7: Eventually they crash-landed in the middle of
the Kitara Desert.
BACKGROUND INFO:-
Sorry about the size
of this image but, as with all of the '98 strips, my handwriting is so much
smaller that I have to make the images larger!
The strip itself is an unusual twist on the old 'password cursed everything' idea, this time password cursed fireworks. At least this time there's a reason for them being magical! The next thing to note is the speechbubbles. They're red, as opposed to the usual white. This was to be used in the next part alongside a key to identify which puppy was speaking. Pretty nifty eh? Well, it might have been if issue 3 had ever come out. =;) Finally, I'll be damned if I can explain how all the puppies could have been holding on to that one firework!
