Could that have been the real reason that Krosp was scheduled to be terminated rather than for failing at the recruiting cats? Might that also mean that a scheming Mart' had the Dr's location get told to the baron so that he could have access to the bears?

That scene also did a nice job of setting up that the Baron maybe WASN'T being a horrible evil tyrant torturing "Dr Dim" for fun but maybe he really DID nip something in the bud there.

The Foglios don't have consistent spelling of names as a strong suit.
Agatha's seneschal's family (Von Mekkhan) is spelled about five
different ways...and these made it to the print editions, too.

I think they need an experienced editor. While I am too busy with my current writing project (my fourth novel) I am sure Hovart would like to fly over and help out. Seriously, though, maybe we could volunteer as pre-print editors. Everybody in this list reads the online strip and tears the script into little pieces during the course of our discussions. We could provide a valuable (free) service for the Professors.

I was thinking Russian bear, Walter Koenig played a Russian named Chekhov, and Chekhov's gun is something introduced very early that finally pays off.
So Dr. Dim's bears are a Chekhov's gun, and the leader is named after the actor who played (a different) Chekhov, a character who had a certain amount of hubris (not unlike certain mad scientists we know).

It could work. I know they're amenable to being informed
about significant typos. Reader-typo-catching worked for
A Redtail's Dream. All it would take is our normal keen
observation plus notifying them (once or twice but not
nagging) that we are doing it, and they could check here
when they have time and inclination.

When I notice a typo or other mistake in a new update, I email about
it to webmistress@.... Most of the time it gets fixed
eventually. (They are quite good about replying to me about it...if
not always right away!)
