When there's trouble, you call D... er... GD?

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

Wait ... Blaze, if I construe your post right, does that mean that they still air it these days?! :o

Let me be the first to point out Greg's latest typo... "all right" should be "alright."

Let me be the first to prove you wrong.

[quote="Dictionary.com";p="570564"]Usage Note: Despite the appearance of the form alright in works of such well-known writers as Langston Hughes and James Joyce, the single word spelling has never been accepted as standard. This is peculiar, since similar fusions such as already and altogether have never raised any objections. The difference may lie in the fact that already and altogether became single words back in the Middle Ages, whereas alright has only been around for a little more than a century and was called out by language critics as a misspelling. Consequently, one who uses alright, especially in formal writing, runs the risk that readers may view it as an error or as the willful breaking of convention.[/quote]

Irrelevant. The point is that "all right" doesn't mean the same thing as alright. It means "everything is correct," and makes no sense in this context.

Whether the appropriate word is "proper" or not is completely moot... I'm merely pointing out that the phrase he uses does not make sense in the context.

I wish I didn't know exactly what he was talking about, Darkwing Duck is one of those shows that I think I shouldn't admit I watched and enjoyed. Something like Gargoyles however, kicked much ass.

Ah, yes, Gargoyles. Almost the complete cast of ST:TNG voiced it...

(Well, not really, but there were a LOT of ST:TNG voices present.)

Edit: May as well provide the IMDB link and a list of voices:

Jonathan Frakes
Marina Sirtis
Michael Dorn
Kate Mulgrew (ok, not ST:TNG, but still...)
Brent Spiner

So just four, but still...

Wow, I thought I would be the only one to think of Darkwing Duck when reading the comic. I should have more faith in people.... :(

Darkwing Duck rocked.
