Good on Ganesh! That’s nicely said: “It is always dawn somewhere.”
And, much as Jhalm’s probably a decent bloke in most other respects, and I’d probably not be so quick to think ill of him an I weren’t reading the story that’s about Digger, bad luck to the Captain all the same. 😉
Ganesh is the remover of obstacles, and the god you invoke at the start of a journey. So of course he’s going to make sure Digger’s start is easy. As for the rest, well…
What is it with gods, are they all lawyers or something? “It’s always dawn somewhere.” Yeah, and smite the party of the second part if s/he gets a comma in the wrong place. ** grumble * divine ambulance chasers * grumble **
Tris – I like the idea of Jhalm as Javert. Javert is one of my favorite characters of fiction, I like Jhalm a lot better now that you associated the two of them in my brain 🙂
I love how Digger takes a panel to take in that fact that Jhalm believes they are leaving in 6 hours. Also….Ganesh….Mwahahaha.
And people thought politicians where masters of double speak. Oh no…the Gods are the real masters…..
Urgh, “devious god”. If that on this and preceding pages was an intentional pun, I am ashamed for not noticing.
*sigh* That’s.the problem with loopholes. You start with “it’s always Dawn somewhere” and end up doing your midnight sacrifices at 10:30 AM because it’s midnight not quite halfway around the world. Points for getting around Jhalvert, but I have to wonder if there wasn’t a less- Oh, who am I kidding, three (quiet) cheers for the devious god-statue!

Ho, ho ho! You gotta love Ganesh statue…

*sneeeerk*
It IS dawn… in Atlantis…
Jhalm is not that bad a guy [kind of a Javert-analogue], but I’d hate to be stuck in a room with him.

Heh, I like the idea of Harvey “the Hammer” Levins-type gods wandering around, looking for spiritual loopholes to exploit.
Ganesh is delightfully devious.
It is dawn…wherever Chuck Norris is. Also, that statue’s smarter than I thought. And I thought it was smart from the beginning!
“It’s only half-past noon, but I don’t care — it’s five o’clock somewhere!”

love Diggers “HA!” panel
And this is why I’m Neutral Good.

Man, just about now I would LOVE to know what the oracular snail had to say to Digger…
ARGH
A devious god is an unlimited fountain of jokes :D.
uff.

“HA”
Made me laugh.
