Saturday, July 25, 2009 Heathcliff Analyzed


"He practicing the sleep deprivation techniques he learned at Guantánamo Bay."

In this comic it appears that a dog has been propped up in a doorway, secured in place by its tail. Heathcliff is screaming at this poor creature in the form of a single, wavering musical note. Iggy is telling his strange companion that "It's a pitch only dogs can hear."

How Iggy can hear the sound is not known. Nor is it explained how Heathcliff produced it. This sound is of no consequence anyway, as the dog cannot hear it, having either expired or suffering from a hangover.

The most interesting thing about this comic is Iggy's mouthless friend, who has a large black and red spider atop his head, complete with a yellow propeller.
