GOOT/ the typo that became dialogue that was reused for dialogue.

[EgoSumNoah]

I just remembered why Achewood's ro-bots are so fulfilling: they look like the tin-can and krazy glue formulations of a seven year old, only they're alive and "kickink your ass, sister!"

I bet Vlad's none too stable on his feet, but he is made of metal, so if Lyle just starts swinging instead of pushing him down, Lyle could probably hurt himself.

[Dr. Sodomy]

after Lyle played Eye of the Tiger, I think he'd play the theme song from the Karate Kid, but maybe that's just me

or perhaps "Takin' Care of Business."

Yet another person reporting in who thought that Mr. Bear was about to play his trumpet with his appendage.  I thought he was opening the drawer for a special attachment.  Then I read it correctly and thought I was the only weirdo in the world who misinterpreted the joke.

I just realized that Philippe goes to hide behind the chair but still look at the screen. Like he can't bear to look in case Ray got hurt but he also has to see what happened.

I interpreted it that way as well. But then I got it. EYE OF THE TIGER -- hahahahahhaha. So now I finally "get it."

[Emergent_C]

EYE OF THE TIGER -- hahahahahhaha.

If it weren't for Bobby, I'd probably never have "gotten it."

Education

The first two panels indeed look like TOUAMB's logo - I had not noticed it.

The best thing for me in this arc is the unnatural urge to kick ass that takes hold of whomever starts talking about the GOF. Also, Lyle should get a chance to explain properly to Philippe what's so great about fighting. Just both of them alone in a room.

Well, don't you feel like kicking ass for having discussed it? I know I do.

[wombat]

You can't really see it, but there is a look of worry in Mr. Bears eye that maybe playing a trumpet with his cock isn't a new idea for Lyle.

Oh God.

Second reference to Arsenal. He will be a major player.

The entire team?

I relate with this strip.  The last time I was drunk and figured it a good idea to fight, I ended up with a rugburn covering half my upper arm which still hasn't healed to this day (about a year).

I like that, in the first frame, Vlad is thinking, "Is SO good." Like, even in his head, he speaks broken English, not his native Whereverthehellhesfromese.

EDIT: frame /= strip

I completely missed Vlad on my first viewing, and I was wondering why Teodor was thinking like Vlad.

As an American formerly from a Soviet Socialist Republic, it is my duty to inform you that Onstad totally nails the accent and broken speech of Vlad.  He sounds just like all of my damn relatives.  Seriously, that is my favorite part of this strip, and all others with Vlad in them.  No other writer comes close.
