   Dudley’s flags are more and more expressive: love the first one, but not sure I get the last one (help, anyone?).

   Oh but I love the flag in the first panel! And what does the Chinese (?) writing in Karma’s “exit puff” mean in the second panel?

   I think Dudley’s flag is an L for loser and pointing to Karma, cuz she obviously isn’t sure why it’s called the dark ages :)

   Ah! “L” for loser! That makes sense; thanks, JodieKay!

   Wasn’t that either the word “zip” or” zoom” in Japanese in panel 2 ??

   The Japanese characters are “zuumu” phonetic (katakana foreign language alphabet) a sound alike for “zoom.”

   Karma seeks to enlighten a dark age.

   Only Karma would have a hardhat to match her outfit.

    There is also some indication that, especially at the beginning, in the 530-40s, the Dark Ages may even have been physically darker than usual…

    Is Dudley’s first flag crying for/as Boody or is he calling him an S.O.B.?

    With her hat over her eyes Karma will remain in the dark.

    @whardin, I think Dudley’s flag meant to say sob as in sadness that Boody is still missing, not S.O.B as in “Son Of a (BLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!) .

    Now things are looking slightly better for Boody.

    I dunno, this string theory isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, methinks.

    Just check on the Igoogle & that indeed is the word “zoom” in Japanese (Pronounce in the western or katakana “Zu-mu” or “kyuujoushou”).

    I put the double u in “zuumu” because the middle character that looks like a hyphen means “hold out the vowel” big3469 must have found the official romanji (Japanese using our alphabet).

    Purdey, you spelled it absolutely right.
    Cheers.
