Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for October 14, 2019

INCOMING!!!

Wiz, you said the magic phrase.

Keep dry leaves from combustion sources

Forest fire?

You HAD to ask, didn’t you….

How ( and why) did the wizard end up there?

Yep that’s the worst that can happen !

You should never ever ask that question.

There is your answer, Wiz!

Time for the Wiz to “poof” himself to safety!

what’s the worst that can happen, you have a several thousand-pound dragon who thinks that he’s a kid and lands splat on you?

Dragonball!

Evidently Id has a law against open fires.

I think a lot of you have the same idea, but a big belch of flame when Henry hits the ground with a thud, starting an inferno, would be the worst that could happen. Is ID in California?

Uh oh! I spoke too sooooooon

Now if Henry had done the same thing when Wiz was digging for more coal for Henry’s breath, Wiz’s funeral song would be in the key of A-flat miner.

So who was he talking to if he looks surprised in the 2nd panel?

If you’re dumb enough to move into the pile of leaves after encouraging your dragon to jump on it, then you deserve what is about to happen.

one of those questions that one should never ask

The leaves’ll be back on the tree.

It was fun to do,

Back in ’62.

Wiz you asked for it.

Cannonball!!!!
