Dragon Hunters Page #2

Wandering Knights.

In any case, Uncle Arnold

is going to be happy to see you.

Real big.

I'm going to have to be darn credible now.

My lords and ladies ...

How ya doin? Put a smile and

open up your bulging purses.

Sir Gwizdo and Knight Lian-chu,

the greatest dragon hunters of ...

Who dares to disturb me

during my CLISTER.

With all due respect my lord, it is two

miserable louts and your niece.

- Not at all.

- Zo.

They are wandering knights, uncle.

They just saved my life.

Go to your room,

you little runaway.

Uncle ...

Tomorrow it's off to the crooked tooth..

You, what feats have you done?

besides putting up with my niece?

Eh, us? well, uh, The noble knight

Lian-chu is famous in many a land,

and his fearless feats have

inspired so many before him

- that the ...

- Spare me the folklore.

Warrior, take a step forward.

He's got muscles ...

and, uh, raw power!

Yes, the attributes

of a true warrior.

Your Highness, if you please,

they are but ...

Shut up, Gildas.

Lets roll son,

I have a mission for you.

Every twenty seasons,

the most terrifying dragon alive wakes up,

and leaves his lair

at the far end of the world.

When he comes, he devours entire regions,

burns villages by the hundreds ...

swallows fortresses whole,

before returning to his lair,

leaving only ashes behind.

Gildas!

I have inscribed on this calendar

all of the signs of his awakening.

Look, the Crenelations collapse.

The smoldering Knights.

The red cloud.

the bridges sailing away.

The sinking villages.

And talking animals.

When all of these signs have appeared,

my boy,

He will have returned ...

the Devourer of Life.

The World Gobbler.

I have seen him son.

I once lifted my sword before him.

And the mere sight of his fiery gaze

drove my own eyes back into my skull.

Since then, all I can see

is a dead grey landscape

a terrible place where there is no life,

and no joy.

What is that little tree there,

next to the dragon?

That is for scale dear Knight.

Go to his kingdom, enter his lair,

far off in the west,

beyond the end of the world ...

and strike him while he sleeps.

Before its too late.

Yeah, yeah, yeah ...

but no.

It is a cruel blow, but uh look at that,

were all booked up.

Strike him dead and the world will be saved.

Lian-chu, say goodbye,

were disturbing the man.

My health and sight will return.

And I will cover you in gold.

Dear client, if you can make room for

his head in your museum of horrors.

But first let me show you our

standard contract.

Special little advance for

travel expenses.

And since were among

noble knights ...

A large purse of gold should

do the trick nicely.

Modern methods, why not?

Gildas!

Yah, just put an X there, here, here and there.

Roll, roll, roll.

The red cloud, my lord.

Saddle up my good brave Knights.

Keep heading west my lords,

until the end of the world.

Yes, for sure, for sure, old man. Of course Gildas.

Say hi to the misses will ya?

Yes, yes, Ha, ha ha!

Yes! Yes! Who who who!

Where you going?

Coiff a cold one buddy, is not every day that

we get to rip off a blind of geezer.

That's not the way

to the end of the world.

Lian-chu, don't you understand,

who cares about their end of the world?

We are rich.

You know what this is?

- An advance?

- This is our little farm, buddy.

The one of our comfy little dreams,

with sheep everywhere?

Now let's get out of here,

while the beasties are busy.

I am coming with you, my lords.

What? Zo, you can't

be serious.

Sure I am.

My uncle told me I had to come with

you to the end of the world.

Oh really? Weren't you punished?

No. .. And what he also said was that

I should learn the rudiments of the trade.

No, no, no and no.

You go home, explain to Uncle Arnold

that, Lord Gwizdo does not take on apprentices.

He also said that if you don't

want to take me, he would ...

He would ... what?

He would spank your

bare bottom in public.

My bare bottom?

In public?

For crying out loud,

and he's spitting fire besides!

No, what I meant was he

was doing it with his mouth, Hector.

I don't see what's so funny.

Wow! You sure messed up that big red dragon good,

Sir Lian-chu.

That was so unreal,

I am so fabulously impressed.

I've got to ...

find my flail.

Your funny sword? Wait for me,

Sir Lian-chu, I'm going to find it for you.

Okay, Sir Lian-chu's groupy,

your backstage chatter

is very close to driving me bonkers.

Tough luck for the public spanking.

... so fabulously ...

Zo.

You grab your bag and you get lost.

You go home now.

We Don't travel well with little kids.

Strange, but I have this funny feeling

that some real doo doo is gonna start flying.

And Sir Knight Lian-chu was on the western bridge,

with a big red dragon ...

who's breathing fire, and said to him,

in his big, deep voice:

b I am not scared of you, Big Red,

one move from you and you are dead. / b / i/b

Who is the man of a thousand teeth

The terror of dragons far and near

Who is the man of the day

It is him, of course, Silver Knight Gothic.

How did you become a

real Knight, Lian-chu?

Did you go to knight school?

Wow this is really unreal

taking me with you.

I mean,

really unreal!

Are there girl knights?

Cause me, I want to be a girl knight.

And that time you were hanging from the tips of your teeth ...

How'd you do that?

And your funny sword there, is it a magic sword?

Umm, uh, I don't really know know.

The Silver Knight Gothic, he's modest too.

He always says:

b The modesty is the sign of

great knights like me. / b / i/b

He's my favorite fairy tale hero.

I would love to meet him one day.

And become his best friend,

and his future girl knight ... unreal.

But you can't in real life.

Uh huh bummer.

I can't take it.

I'm gonna hang myself.

They're only blisters.

Put some herbs on 'em.

I'm not talking about my blisters,

I am talking about princess blabber mouth.

A fire, a fire,

let's make a big fire!

In any case, did you see how

credible I am with her?

Yeah

But the idea of being credible, Lian-Chu was

take Uncle Arnold's money and run.

Not to play the knights and dragons,

till the end of the world.

The best friend of Lian-Chu always

went to get wood for the fire

along with the

funny blue dog who talks.

Say there sir, am I mistaken or is

your dog is a bit weird?

So, are you going to tell her that

we are not real knights?

Yeah, right, and that we ripped off uncle fish eyes ...

and then she goes and spills the beans.

No buddy,

we're in deep doo doo here.

He sure is weird.

But what do we do now?

Ditch her in the woods.

There is no crying, no fuss, no

explanations ... Yeah, it's a sure fire method.

And with a little luck she'll be

gobbled up by wild beasts.

Are you sure?

You bet I am.

That World Gobbler and his of the little tree?

Not for me.

Tonight we'll wait till she falls asleep,

and zip, we're out of here.

Whose is this?

It's Gwizdo's.

That's so funny, sir ...

I'm really sorry, but knitting is for grannies.
