Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for November 05, 2020

Another few years, and he might be able to light a birthday candle.

I have a crazy idea: Give Todd a flame pipe! Turns out it’s what Bowser has in “Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s inside story”.

I don’t usually LOL at this strip, but…third panel! LOL!!!!!!!

Damn! He burnt the candy!

You’re perfect as you are, Todd! Just ask anybody: (dietician, model, physician, dentist…) Nowadays, candy-spitting is much more frightening than fire-breathing!

Reminds me of the little swamp dragons in Terry Pratchett’s Discworld. He had hilarious descriptions of how they were always sickly and wheezing, and one wrong sneeze would make them explode, leaving you to find dragon parts splattered all over the place.

I want to unzip what he said.

(koff)

Maybe he can figure a way to split the difference, and spew hot fudge.

Smoke probably still smells strongly of candy, too.

I suppose I can understand where he’s coming from a bit, though. Dragons are typically seen as these big intimidating beasts…and Todd is anything but that. So what we’d need to do, then, is show Todd he doesn’t need to play into stereotypes to be great. :)

Besides, according to Ozy and Millie, firebreath is environmental, not hereditary. ;)

WHAT?!?

Yes! Stop with stupid candy and useless joy!!!!

I know there aren’t that many knights in shining armor around any more, but I have to think there will be fewer threats to the life of a candy-breathing dragon than a fire-breathing one.

I hate to burst your bubble, Todd, but Godzilla you ain’t.

this makes us love you more todd. chocolate smoke!

Judge me by my size do you? And where you should not. Todd probably just needs some more limestone in his diet for full 3 panel incinerating dragon blast. formula: crushed limestone + stomach acid (very high in a candy breather) apply tiniest amount of spark = FWOOOOOOAM

I don’t even know what’s he is blowing

He could try painting his horns red. Or have lunch with his great-great-great-great-great granduncle twice removed, Godzilla, and learn how to make them fluoresce.

Well, if it’s any consolation at least Todd’s old enough to smoke…

Oh no. Dragon’s going edgelord.

Best he’s going to consume a lot of Family Guy and Brickleberry.

that’s a definition of a smart tryhard

Todd should lay off the candy cigars.

aww… I liked how todd breathes (barfs…) candy! it makes the strip more unique

I wonder what Todd’s favorite type of compressed file is?

Soooo, Todd’s gone goth?
