Phil & Dixie? The Snail? WHAT WILL HAPPEN?!?!

GROWF?!?

I wondered about that, too Maybe getting a new 'mascot' to the strip.

Do you know I'd seen that snail at the bottom of the strip ever since they re-introduced Phil and Dixie, and I'd never considered the fact that it was moving?

Damn!

I mean, it's one of my favourite parts of the magazine ("What am I going to do out here? Torture WHEAT?" is an all time classic line) but now it's been elevated to a whole new level...

Or something.

My vote is the snail will now go up the right side of the page.

Then we can speculate what happens when the snail goes full circle.

 

[Mathew_Freeman]

Yup, that's the kind of evil thing that he'd think of...

Has anyone ever statted Phil and Dixie? I mean, yes, it would be very sad and geeky to do so, but this is the internet, and such things are commonplace (says the Hiveminder ).

Maybe it'll disappear completely, only to start inching along the bottom of pages in Girl Genius. That would be pretty evil, too

Same here. Do I feel silly...

Maybe it's like shingles - Phil or Dixie are gonna die.

That's the snail bringing a message to the Black Bishop.
It's right there in Dragon 269 (March 2000) in the mid-left panel.
Well... as it's only been three years, the snail will be in time.

I always noticed that the snail was there, I never noticed that he's been progressively moving closer and closer to the right hand side of the page.

Never thought about the timing...hmmmmm maybe his xxxenophile book will take over. Afterall- more mature readers material is making it into the book.
