| I get the "whistling past the graveyard" gag, but what's up with the frying pan? |
|
| Good question, Irek. Maybe a play on "out of the frying pan" (though he'd be going INTO the fryling pan? Or maybe the pan will flip up and hit him? Neither is satisfying. I tried to come up with a pun on the old time use of "pan" for a face, but can't. Anyone else have an explanation?
Who drew the Sherlock Monk story? The artist's bold line and use of black makes it stand out. Some funny statues, too. |
