As a rule, I don’t read the Sunday comics at all, so I stumbled on the April 12 installment of Prince Valiant* without the slightest clue as to what was going down, but, apparently, three babes from King Author’s Court have been kidnapped by a gang of “beastmen.” Intervening on behalf of the chicks is “Butoka,” an African dude in Camelot-style dress, but the beastdudes, “Nudder,” “Bup,” and “Ig,” aren’t interested.
“Why,” asks Bup, “do these sand fleas howl for our hides when we only take brides as would any warrior? Feh!”
Feh indeed!
*Prince Valiant is an unusual, Sunday only strip. When I made the link, the March 1 strip was available. Presumably, it will be a while before the April 12 episode appears.
