Dual-purpose Anansi. Recapitulation and explication of the strip; ironic set-up for a version of Pride goeth before a fall with Kermit as guest-villain!

does Kermit really eat bugs?…I never thought of him as a real frog before!

::giggles:: nice guest shot of Kermit, but as Kajunklown said…I never though of Kermit as a ‘frog”

?????

I’ve seen this cartoon before, but with different dialogue.

But something occurs to me….what do Kermit and Spiderman now have in common?

( See today’s Steve Benson cartoon. )

I hate to say it but I feel like I’ve seen the last 2 panels before! Is this a partial repeat? Love it anyway, but still…

I seem to remember Kermit snapping a fly out of the are a time or two on the Muppet Show. Or was it in one of the movies? Either way this is the closest I’ve ever come to seeing him as the bad guy. Perspective, eh?

kajunklown: Have you never seen the beginning of “The Muppet Movie”? “The tongue is always the first thing to go”

kajunklown said, about 4 flying hours ago

“does Kermit really eat bugs?…I never thought of him as a real frog before!”

As Kermit says, “Time’s fun when you’re having flies!”

Looks like Anansi should have gone with.

You’re right Simon_Jester. Except for the coloring and the dialogue in the first 2 panels this strip is identical to the strip from July 1st 2008. JT must still be having problems.

Actually, as Justin has said a couple of times before, this is a re-write of a previous set. It was good the first time around, and the slight change is dialogue and imagery shows that he is improving!

Just another reason to love Mythtickle! Guest shots!
