So That's Why Dupree Wears a Turtleneck

- Hello All:Remember she was a pirate by trade before coming into service for the Baron. The remaining Crew and Captain Hawkins puts me in mind of something I saw once in the old Penthouse magazine.Yes I was in my 20's,part of being a young man was liking to look at pictures of naked women and? Anybody remember the "Oh Wicked Wanda!" comic they always had in the back. There was one episode where she (Wanda and her group) went full pirate. I have saved a fantastic page showing of the assembled crew of entirely topless (or nude with some of them ) women with head scarves, grappling hooks and cutlasses looking extremely badass assembled on the deck of an appropriated PT boat. There is also a cameo by Clark Gable doing his Mr Christian Character with a scowling Charles Laughton/Captain Bligh next to him. I'm wondering if Phil drew some inspiration from the Wicked Wanda comic for this current story arc? He's old enough to know about it. I realize that not everyone will appreciate that kind of thing. If you are politically correct or think this sort of thing is sexist then you won't have to worry about being offended. However if you are interested (Jack and Hovart looking at you btw) let me know and I'll send it to your email.Yours in Clanks and High Voltagevidavidna aka Karl

- Wasn't there something said to the effect Dupree is persona non grata in England? Or am I misremembering?Rose MarieThere is an important sense in which government is distinctive from administration. One is perpetual, the other is temporary and changeable. A man may be loyal to his government and yet oppose the particular principles and methods of administration.

- Instead of a made up scar, you would think she would switch hairstyles, earrings and that distinctive skull bindi instead. Perhaps the scar is a makeup distraction. As so many women say "It's not like they're looking at my face..." To be really effective, she could have gone topless instead. :) But, that would definitely move GG out of a G rating.
- I really think it would be cool if it was a real scar and there was a great story behind it. I'm just suggesting another plausible reason for why we've never seen it before.

She *is* a pirate, after all, and probably jumped at the
chance to dress the part.
I think the bindi is a tattoo.

- I really like this side of Dupree, this protective, concerned about other people side that we've almost never seen before.

Trouble - Quite possible, now that you mention it. And it could be not so much a scar, as the fact that it hasn't had time to heal up properly.On Wed, Feb 21, 2018 at 8:05 PM, edbdiver@...

- Nah, that was just a cut on her cheek.
