    I was going to post the lyrics to Rocket Man, but I am afraid I can’t understand them.

    This is delightful.

    Still enjoying these black background strips, Mark. The contrast makes the colors explode. Nice. -v

      Thanks, Vince! I kind of like the color against the stark black, too, but filling in all that black with ink is a real chore!

    The Elton John song Rocket Man instantly got stuck in my head after viewing this strip…. that is not a firefly, that is an ear worm.
