did anyone else have a flashback to a futurama episode? Going back in time, killing your grandfather, sleeping with your grandmother, and rendering yourself an inbred temporal paradox… thinking it through, Fry could fit right in at the school.
“Turning all of humanity into apes? *THAT* was your master plan? Listen up! From now on, I’m in charge of this operation. Anybody got a problem with that?”
Anonymous and Seth, you might find it instructive to read a famous Robert A. Heinlein story, “By His Bootstraps” (and a book of his called “Time Enough For Love” as well).
Smart villain. If you burn the Earth to cinder, you’re also on the Earth and go with it. To paraphrase The Tick, “Why would I meant to burn the Earth? That’s where I keep all my stuff.”
Graham is simply going to use the power of the Galliflox to turn evil Lord No-name into something smoke-able and conjure up some chains, a muzzle and some kneepads for enchantress. Also he’s going to gum Celeste’s mouth together like what happened to Neo in the Matrix before he went all “wooh.”
Well, we might know why Graham has problems with magic. If that thing is siphoning off his ‘charge’, then he’s essentially trying to start the car on a very cold morning with a flat Diehard.
I think Graham should start wondering at this moment exactly what’s going to happen to him after he’s been used as a catalyst. He’s been used this entire time, by good and evil, and I think he’d get fed up with it. If he’s sick and tired of being with the idiotic do-gooders, he should be really worried about being a pawn by the evil half-dragon, half-man monster.
Other stupid plans include: using a guy who’s sole motivation is blowjobs as your catalyst with a magic nuke. ’1 billion magical blow job hungry strippers coming right up!’
That is an extremely dumb idea. I think that going back in time to murder yourself might be dumber, though.

No, but I did just have a flashback to Wicked Powered, in which the protagonist is his own father and his own mother.
For some reason I now vaguely remember that and have a strange desire to go read it again.
Futurama? I thought that was Heinlein’s “-All You Zombies-”…
Actually, I think most of the students–and Profs– at this school are the Descendents of Fry!
No. It that was the case they’d be inexplicably more useful.
In the words of Lex Luthor..
“Turning all of humanity into apes? *THAT* was your master plan? Listen up! From now on, I’m in charge of this operation. Anybody got a problem with that?”
Stupid Child, why would I want to burn up the earth? That’s where I keep all my stuff!
And the plan is to make EVERYTHING my stuff… so burning it up would be kind of silly, no?
And who would want to share power with a bunch of dragons?
Hey–That’s where I keep all o’ MY stuff, too!
[DanMan, have you been 'a-touchin' my stuff!?]
Well, none of your good stuff. I’ve only been touching your junk…..er…..I mean NO!
To quote the Tick: “Spoon!”
George Carlin talks about stuff:

i love starship troopers
the one I’m thinking of is called “The Man who folded himself”

Stupid villain is stupid.

Except he probably doesn’t know how to do that.
he’ll get by on his dickish willpower.
Bring back the dragons? What for? So he can be second-in-command, at best?
So he’s not going to summon the dragons, because that’d make him, like, one of many dragons instead of top dog.
Maybe he could enhance himself with the battery somehow? Though it seems he didn’t want the mark, so maybe dragons and magic is a bad combo.
So… Destroy magic, maybe?
No one else has a comment about “Stupid Soon-to-be-murdered child”?
This guy is a dialogue genius.
And you know whats really sad? The STUPID child is still the smartest one at the wizard school…..It’s amazing the school has survived this long.
I am guessing tons of inbreeding.

((I’ve done that, btw. Not Fun.))
I feel like this comic is often missing some panels

Indeed, what would one gain from destroying one’s own planet?
Indeed. Humankind should start asking itself that question.
because if you make everyone else lose, you’ve won.
There-ya’ go!
Don’t do it, Graham!
I can practically guarantee it’ll end in tears!
[And a shorted-out brain]
A shorted out brain? With Graham, how would you tell the difference between that and his usual drug-and-booze damaged one?
Valid Point, ElfenDude!
Not knowing his real plan, the teachers dreamed up that one. Of course it’s the dumbest plan ever.
at least he didn’t say “soon to be eaten child”
Pass the ketchup…..*Burp*
Naw…..Celeste is probably too chewy, anyway
