Yes, he forgot his gun when he climbed out there. Look, he was busy thinking of something cool to say in panel 3, okay?

... it involves falling in another large body of water, doesn't it?
Well, if the vardo floats that'll work . . .
Nawww, it was just safer for him to climb out without his hands encumbered ;) He practiced proper vardo-parkour safety.
Given the nature of a 'safety' in that day and age, he did exactly what I would have recommended. 'Half-cock?' PULEEEZE!!! At best it is a conveniance, not to be trusted. Do your gymnastics, THEN handle the gun!
Well, they are looking, but would you want to get involved in that?
That dog seems inordinately happy to see people getting thrown into the middle of the street...
They might have treats in their pockets, which might fall out, and any treat found on the street is the dog's. This is the LAW. It's in the Magna Carta somewhere.
:D It might as well be
The Magna Carta really only pertains to the rights of the nobility, not the common folk, but any foodstuffs that hit the ground are automatically fair game for anyone!
And the dog is evidently nobility.
Now that you mention it, that's reasonable -- so many nobles are dogs that many dogs must be noble.
There's a lot of stuff in the Magna Carta that no one seems to care about any more. For one thing, it guaranteed the independent sovereignty of Wales.
Somewhere, the ghost of Llewellyn ap Gruffydd is angrily tapping a paragraph in the scroll, no doubt.
Good news: Invi has it comfy on top of Superbia.
Bad news: Avaritia got tossed under Superbia.
Good news: They remembered to leave Invi her hat.
Oblig (even if the vardo doesn't have one right now): "And stay off my lawn!"
Well, they shouldn't complain, Invi and Superbia got a nice, free beauty sleep.
They're British. It would be unseemly to appear fazed unless such shenanigans interrupted tea.
Do we think it comes under the broad heading of 'Not Cricket'?
Depends on where you are and which class is involved...
The unofficial motto of Newcastle? 'Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough'. The official motto of Newcastle? Translated from Latin it means 'We triumph by brave defense.' Which uh....has been theorised to basically be 'come and have a go if you think you're hard enough' in posher language.
"Ho'way the lads" -- meaning broadly "go get them, boys". ;)
That used to be spray painted on the underside of one of the bridges so you'd see it going into the toon from the south.
Damn I love this comic.
Holding off on the kickstarter until the 28th as reward/commiserations.
Looks like another bunch of drunken gypsies. Best not to get involved...
Unless getting involved with drunken gypsies happens to be your idea of fun.
That's a fabulous hat. You should have kept it.
She's hunt you to the end of the world, for that hat.
is it worth it ? Is it worth a lifetime of running from the Wrath of... wait, she's not wrath :D
Ms Holt should definitely have kept the hat. A hat is a badge of honour! A trophy that must be plucked from off the head of a worthy enemy!

"I'm not sure the horse would like height, on the other hand"
Maybe it's an ex-circus horse that used to do diving stunts!
Avarice got the horse, it gotta be the cheapest and most cowardesque horse out there.
You know it's a good comic when people read it till mid-morning and are heartbroken when there are no more pages to read. Like me right now.
Henry, please don't drive her house of a cliff. Not even if there's water at the bottom.
Falsetto: "We're driving in the air..."
A flying vardo, now there's something you don't see every day.
If the Gluttony guy had come along as well, I don't think this would have turned out so well.
Unless he was distracted by a turnip!
Possibly, but it appears that he (or at least the spirit of Gluttony) may have more refined tastes.
I don't think he could fit in the vardo.
"Yes, he forgot his gun when he climbed out there. Look, he was busy thinking of something cool to say in panel 3, okay?"
Glad to have my previous observation addressed! ^^
I haven't read this in a while, and it's been fun to catch up. It's all just so good!
...and there's sin-specific insult number 3! Got something for free from Greed. ;)
