Dr. Mat’s opening speech is a tribute to similar speeches made by Dr. Evil in the Austin Powers movies. “Gentlemen, welcome to my secret underground lair…”
The greeble came to me in a fit of madness. It might not be the big boob humor from four weeks ago, but I hope you’ll see some real howlers nevertheless. Oh, and a big change is in store for another member of the S-Team. That’s right; you read it here first.
Who?
That’s for me to know and you to wonder…
And on Friday the 13th, Snookums is officially no more. Poor Snookums, we hardly knew ye’. Onward to Dr. Mat’s next Evil Plan!
Here you can see the monster in better detail. I think it turned out pretty good, even cute (hence the name Snookums).
The joke in this strip is a device which was used a lot in old Warner Brothers and Tex Avery cartoons. It’s when you have a chase going on and suddenly both chaser and chasee have to stop for a moment to catch their breath.
It’s a lot funnier when Tom and Jerry do it.
I don’t have much to say about this one, except that anyone who speaks like this really oughtta be smacked.
Really, though, who wouldn’t want to watch Flavor of Love if the alternative was the care and feeding of a vicious monster named “Snookums”?
I’ve never actually sat through a single episode of said show; I’ve always found better ways to waste my time.
