A nod to the upcoming Avengers film in the final frame. Check the name of the range… yes, it’s small, buy try reading it at age 55. Yeah, you can do it.
Taking Bud and Jeff archin’ this week. Let’s see how they do. You know it’s never good. 🙂
Harry Nilsson is a legend in rock and roll. Besides writing the classic “Without You” ballad back in the early ’70s, he hung with just about all the heavy-weights of rock, including John Lennon on his famous “Lost Weekend” adventure (Google it if you don’t know what it is). Harry epitomized heavy drinking and bar fights. But for all that mischief, he was a great composer and singer. Today’s ditty is from a quirky, little known animated TV movie called “The Point” in which everyone in the world is pointy except one kid. Ringo Starr narrated and Harry Nilsson wrote the script as well as some songs. He got the idea while on acid. Say no more.

Why not make a comic based upon the 70s Avengers series ? 🙁
Now you HAVE to do Jeff dressed as Hawkeye! You KNOW you do!
Love the reference Byron – The Point was great & Nilsson was one of my faves with the LP that “Without You” came off of – Nilsson Schmilsson, a strong contender for one of my top 10. One minor point of contention: “Without You” was originally done by Badfinger – written BF’s Pete Ham and Tom Evans.
Then… What are you still doing there, behind him?…. Run for your life!!! 🙂
Jeff has deffinately got it right; a weapon is only as dangerous as the person using it. That said, it seems the is only a danger to himself. XD
Truly, you have to be remarkably stoned to draw a reversed arrow back. I can see lifting it to the bow accidentally reversed, but to then draw it that way … must have been partaking of particularly kind herbage just prior to stepping out on the range.
The final panel makes me cringe in sympathetic pain. I’ve skewered body parts before (knives and screwdrivers, for examples, on several occasion), and the thought of a bow under tension with the point of an arrow inside the palm of my hand just makes the bones in my wrist weak with horror.
On a completely unrelated note … placing a reversed cigarette in your mouth and lighting the filter is quite doable; I’ve even seen people repeatedly attempt to light said cigarette because it doesn’t seem to be burning correctly. I may or may or have ever done that … 🙄 😀
Lol! How does that work? A backwards arrow xD!
