There is the obvious racial thing with the Prince (forget his name), but also find it weird that the good Doctor eats meat.<br /><br />I loved the illustrations, and thought this was Edward Gorey when I first saw it. :-)Darius Whiteplumehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17950956139088139753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-21248091685205000902009-05-26T02:53:43.651-07:002009-05-26T02:53:43.651-07:00The entirety of Glen Baxter's career has been one ...The entirety of Glen Baxter's career has been one long attempt to match the absurdity of that one panel.steveasatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-60942843433111127622009-05-23T18:31:49.066-07:002009-05-23T18:31:49.066-07:00"My blessed matches are all wet. They won't strike..."My blessed matches are all wet. They won't strike. Have you got any?"<br /><br />"No, I'm afraid I haven't," I called back.<br /><br />"Never mind," said he. "Perhaps Dab-Dab can raise us a light somewhere."<br /><br />Then the Doctor made some funny clicking noises with his tongue and I heard some one trundle up the stairs again and start moving about in the rooms above.<br /><br />Then we waited quite a while without anything happening.<br /><br />"Will the light be long in coming?" I asked. "Some animal is sitting on my foot and my toes are going to sleep."<br /><br />"No, only a minute," said the Doctor. "She'll be back in a minute."<br /><br />And just then I saw the first glimmerings of a light around the landing above. At once all the animals kept quiet.<br /><br />"I thought you lived alone," I said to the Doctor. "So I do," said he. "It is Dab-Dab who is bringing the light."<br /><br />I looked up the stairs trying to make out who was coming. I could not see around the landing but I heard the most curious footstep on the upper flight. It sounded like some one hopping down from one step to the other, as though he were using only one leg.<br /><br />As the light came lower, it grew brighter and began to throw strange jumping shadows on the walls.<br /><br />"Ah-at last!" said the Doctor. "Good old Dab-Dab!"<br /><br />And then I thought I REALLY must be dreaming. For there, craning her neck round the bend of the landing, hopping down the stairs on one leg, came a spotless white duck. And in her right foot she carried a lighted candle!Sleestakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08512281434803286602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-46107429002334024912009-05-23T18:22:24.714-07:002009-05-23T18:22:24.714-07:00How does it walk?How does it walk?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14759247.post-85297552890903699642009-05-22T17:37:02.524-07:002009-05-22T17:37:02.524-07:00Duck or a clown.
