   And the “cold war” is reborn. I never did like Putin, or any Commie for that matter.

   A reader from the Czech Republic E-Mailed me back when Sarah Palin made her first appearance in the strip on September 27th asking if I could do something about the “Putin rears his head” remark, since a lot of people in Eastern Europe are rightfully worried about Putin.

   I said that I would be hesitant to stretch my mockery of Palin longer than I needed to, or get too political, but that the floating disembodied head of Vladimir Putin might make an interesting new character in the strip.

   So, Floating Disembodied Head of Vladimir Putin (which is exactly how everyone will refer to him in the strip from here on) is here to stay, or at least for the rest of the week and whenever I have something else funny to use him for after that.

   Credit where credit is due: my friend Michael Mills, back in 2000, created a character called the Floating Disembodied Head of Shakespeare for his TV show on the local TV station while playing around with a chromakey outfit, so I owe a debt of inspiration to him for this one.

   Great news to hear that the Floating Disembodied Head of Vladimir Putin is going to be a fixture - it’ll be rearing regularly.

   When I first saw it, I got a flash back to flick called, “Zardoz” …
