Okay, that's just plain weird. On what planet is there possibly an angle from which an (extremely) ordinary scarf would take on the look of an alien life form? Combine that with in-bubble-Mary-and-K2 viewing the tabletop dinosaur, and I can only think that DOSC has spiked Mary's tea.
Encouraged by the popularity of floating heads (see recent category addition to the prestigious Worthy Awards), Team M&G decided to go for broke this year. The challenge for 2014: to draw as much thought bubble action and as many floating heads (miniature dinosaur skeletons not excluded) as possible. We're off to a good start, but I fear we might see too much activity too soon. Team M&G, please pace yourself! We’d hate to see you end up like all those gung-ho January gym warriors who burn out by mid-February and return to their butt imprints on the couch, hugging tubs of ice cream and binge watching mindless TV reruns. Please consider your loyal audience! The higher you lift us up, the harder we’ll fall when you give up.
Good grief, Svengali Scarf is even draped over Mary's pillow in the first panel (looking more benign in fuchsia with black squares). Mary's smug little world of meddling has really been rocked, all after spending just a day and a half with the Broadway Legend. What mysterious properties does K2 and his enchanted scarf possess?
Maybe there will be a Macho Face-Off between KK'ton and Dr. Jeff! Mary will confess to Ken that she is somewhat entangled back in Santa Royale. Ken will follow her back and the men will Have It Out!
Okay. I was thinking giant sea anemone, but triffid - yeah, that works. It certainly looked more benign the other day when they were holding hands (uh, well, whatever scarf-hands are called.)
@Nance: Variation on that theme is Jeff catches the next flight to NYC and catches Mary and Ken breaking bread - or pizza - together. Then they Have It Out! Dueling scarves at 20 paces!
Don't be shy! I'd love to hear what you have to say about Mary Worth. Just keep it clean, that's all I ask. This is a FAMILY FRIENDLY blog. I don't want to moderate comments, but I will if I have to.

ReplyDeleteAnd Pink Scarf makes a break for it, unable to endure one more day in this strip. Go Pink Scarf! Fly, be free!
