Arthur, King of Time and Space

1/31/05

Previously in cartoons when Merlin and Morgan meet historical figures, those historical figures have been parodies of other comic strip characters. I meant to do that with yesterday's visit to Plato, with Plato and the cave dweller wearing the faces of some team of characters of whom one character is always taking advantage of the other. But I never thought of an appropriate set of characters to insert, and in the event I forgot these intentions entirely. When I was drawing I just went to Google Images and searched on plato, and for the cave dweller I merely tried to draw someone who looked like he'd been chained up in a cave all his life. Well, next time.
