    Didn’t everybody get to go?

      They just let Nick fly them, so I think panel 1 is everyone who went.

    And we’ve come full circle.

      If you’re just referring to Leo pinning Tip to the ground, we’ve come full circle twice. That’s the same way Leo greeted him in Cleveland.

        “Circle of Life” music breaks out in background.

        And at the New Jersey safehouse.

          Oh yeah… forgot about that one.

        And here I thought that was just a traditional greeting for tigers.

          Um… Leo’s a lion, not a tiger.

            Hence the “just”, I think. Like, it turns out lions do it too.

            He did date H. T.’s sister, who, I think we all agreed, was a cougar.

      Apparently Leo really became attached to Tip way back when. And still hasn’t gotten over it.

        Well, Tip deos have a certain animal magnetism.

    Ah, so this is where this chapter’s title comes in…

    People’s heads being attached to their significant others is becoming a theme of this comic.

      Futurama did it first.

    Good call on the riding boots Tip. Something sturdy that offers decent protection up to the knees, ankle support, and has a low, practical heel works well here. And combat boots wouldn’t go with the minidress.

    Leo is having nightmares that he printed too many books and now they aren’t selling.

    Sweetheart should know better than to say lines like that. The universe will jump on them each time.

    Tip, I’m disappointed in you. Of all people, you ought to know the difference between “empathize” and “sympathize”.

    • jdreyfuss

      But he does empathize. He knows exactly how that feels right now.

        Sympathy is when you know exactly how something feels through having had similar experiences, empathy is when you don’t know how it feels but are there for them anyway.

          More specifically, empathy is when you haven’t experienced what they’re going through, but you can imagine what it must feel like.

          And yes, I was also going to mention that Tip – of all people – should have known the difference.

    A fine little trip, this has to be.
    They catch the ship that’s out to sea.
    The Skin-Horse gang, they’re on their own,
    To get the zombies to their home.

    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, no, we wanna go
    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, baby, we wanna go.

    The dog is hooked with Unity.
    Nick thinks of girl, ah, constantly.
    And Tip’s alone, and not a pair,
    But smells the zombies in the air.

    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, no, we wanna go, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, baby, we wanna go.
    [Okay, let’s give it to ‘em, right now!]

    They see—they see a vaycay, a boon, kind of.
    It won’t be long, for push and shove.
    And Leo stands on chest again.
    He tells of his nightmares now and then.

    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, no, we wanna go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby,
    Ooh-wee ooh-wee, oh, baby, we wanna go.
    We said we wanna go now.
    Let’s ride Nick on out of here…
    Let’s go!

    I don’t think we’ve seen Leo in colour before, have we?

      Yeah, we saw it the last time he greeted Tip like this.

      He always runs at him from the right side of the panel.

        Maybe that’s the only way Shaenon can draw it?
