Here in Scotland, on the 25th of January, we celebrate the Scottish poet Robert Burns. For most people who participate this simply involves eating Haggis that night. However, lots of people hold a ‘Burns Supper’ where you are expected to memorise (though some people just read it)one of Burns poems.
Usually participants wear kilts and other Scottish dress, the poem “Address to a Haggis” is read before the feasting begins and lots of whiskey is consumed!
Ahh, but a homonculus is the hideous offspring of alchemy, a protoscience that contributed to the development of modern chemistry and medicine. Of course with a little voodoo thrown in for bad measure…
The real question is what ‘try one more time’ means. Sounds like a loaded request to me. I’m more interested in seeing the retribution if the next time doesn’t fix it then any potential fix.
Burns night was last week! Haha! 🙂
Say Spencey, can you enlighten me about Burns night? I’m not familiar…

That sounds great. Any excuse to consume whiskey sounds good! Appreciate you letting me know. Just curious – do you own a kilt?
Yes, I bought one to wear to weddings. It’s quite comfortable though a little drafty 🙂
I’ve always thought it was a good look. Draft or no draft, lol.
I don’t think Zombie Boy wants to see what happens if he does strike three.
It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you cast your spell…
Maybe his next spell should be to make himself disappear.
What, and miss out on all the fun? You know he’s enjoying himself in spite of the danger…
Gosh I feel so sorry for Claustria! Her situation is just getting worse and worse! Heehee
I wouldn’t worry too much about Claustria. She’s a formidable adversary!
hum … will have to use a spell phoenix feet
Haha, phoenix feet is a pretty funny idea! Maybe they go up in flames and return as beautiful, perfectly proportioned feet?
LOL! I believe that unless the clutch is Phoenix, but should return perfect XD.
She’ll still have big feet, only not THAT big…!
ZB just jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire!
You can almost feel the sizzle!
Fire is never a good way to get rid of stuff.
Especially bad juju!
Wow, ZB went to a lot of effort just to give C a hot foot! :—)
I’m not sure that was his original intention, but I’m sure he’ll take that, at least!
I’m no doctor, but that looks like a case of Grierson-Gopalan syndrome. [wink] #LookItUp
I really don’t think a vitamin B5 supplement with a B complex is gonna help much, Jynksie! #LookedItUp #NeverHeardofitBefore
I guess she sort of deserves this after the bird hex she put on him not so long ago!
That’s right Jerry. One bad curse deserves another!
That’s very true… especially when I can’t find something, or when a comic is lost after the computer crashes…
That there is about as bad as any curse can get. Especially when it’s something you spent so much time on!
Man, hexes are more stubborn than … I don’t know … grass stains!
Quality hexes are never easily removed.
Zombie boy, whatever you do, please just don’t make her feet bigger!
I’m with you there, Dr.! But she’s gonna need to get ’em back first!
Voodoo is not a science. Well in most places anyway.
Ahh, but a homonculus is the hideous offspring of alchemy, a protoscience that contributed to the development of modern chemistry and medicine. Of course with a little voodoo thrown in for bad measure…
I think he better dip the hex in burn cream now
I think at this point that hex is almost a lost cause.
Now that’s some bad Athlete’s foot. Get some tough actin’ Tinactin.
That Tinactin might work if it’s mixed with the white of a dragon’s egg and a dab of nightshade.
Boy… Zombie Boy has really been getting it from all directions lately. Funny stuff.
He’s just having a bad spell spell.
He just can’t seem to get it right
He needs to find a better Big Book of Curses.
I love this series. I hesitate to call it a running gag, though; it’s hard to run anywhere with no feet.
Well, it’s crawling to its conclusion now… I’m glad you like it Justin. I’m a big fan of your work too!
The hex won’t be the only thing that gets burned if ZB doesn’t soon set things right.
Hell hath no fury like a witch girl scorned.
The real question is what ‘try one more time’ means. Sounds like a loaded request to me. I’m more interested in seeing the retribution if the next time doesn’t fix it then any potential fix.
The cure is worse than the disease.
If Zombie Boy’s not careful he’s going to have to give up his own legs :S
That may be true, but Claustria won’t be putting her foot down anytime soon!
Oy! Talk about giving someone a ‘hot foot’. 🙂
And a cold shoulder.
I have missed your comics! Love the new banner!
Well hello Hjortur! Welcome back! Thanks about the banner, I’m glad you like it!
Try one more time… “I’m scattering the ashes?”
His options are getting scarcer and scarcer.
Haha I guess burning that wasn’t the best idea!
Burning just seemed to make the matter worse!
Magic does take practice just like everything else.
You’re right Frank. And Claustria made him eat his words!
