I can play some of that song, actually. I'm only a beginner with my guitar, but I learned some of that one by ear.
Peaches are like, the best fruit evar.
(On a sidenote.... Almost... finished... catching... up.. *twitches* )
DId you mean to write #780?
Apparently the line going on adventure gonna eat a lot of peaches (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_780.php) is similar to the line moving to the country gonna eat a lot of peaches, which appears in the song Peaches by Presidents of the USA.
Yes. Something I think most of us got way back when the comic actually appeared.

In this case it's Newb. Newb is short for newbie and describes someone who is new to the area and may not be knowledgable of their newfound surroundings.
Noob, or n00b, is a deragatory term for someone who may or may not be new. Regardless of this noobs will usually be complete jackasses about everything, will not accept criticism and act like they know everything despite the otherwise opposite.
Nuub, or just nub, is an idiots spelling of an already misspelled slang word. It's done by people who want to feel special. They should be set on fire.
"Lump" is better.
Sitting alone. In a boggy marsh.
Actually, to make this relevant, I remember reading through the DMFA comics in a day. The first one I read was when Dan was at the academy and Abel had mauled Ink.
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.
I HEREBY DUB THIS THREAD A "Your favorite DMFA strip" THREAD! :U
755 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_755.php) I just love the look on Dan's face.
And 512 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_512.php) I just love the comics following it.
1.
DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING, DID YA?
648 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_648.php)
Never fails to make me laugh. Beep! :U
379 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_379.php) my wings just tried to make me coffee. best line ever!
In terms of heart-rending, 625 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_625.php) - it's kind of touching to see Abel freak out like that.
However, in terms of artwork, layout etc, I've always loved 531 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_531.php) - the colour of the drinks really makes it.
I like 293 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_293.php), where you finally get to see Mab in all her glory, and get a hint on just how powerful she really is.
I remember, i started at #325, but I like most #191 -- and am amazed, it is not used as filler quite too often yet... (only dont say Amber abt that).
I also like #293, it would make keen walpaper of the middle image, with text "get the hell to work" or something.

The look on Wildy's face is priceless.

Ah, I guess this is as good a place as any *looks around* yes, this is for DMFA, in the right place :boogie
I love the particular panels that have to do with Dan being an Incumbus ^_^
#378's a good one, where his wings make coffee for him, luv it! I know there was a question somewhere I was thinking of, but forgot already o_O ah well, next time, next time....
hehe, okay I remember now, eh, is the book fluffy found (strip #380) her diary perhaps?? >_>
yay pacman! wokka, wokka....
Hehe, the discussion between Dec. and Jan. was a productive one :D You gotta feel sorry for those who have their birthday then....
Anywaaaays, yes, another thought here. (#392) Hey, there are 'drakes' that like Dan! haha, even if those pip heads are part of him

Bought it on eBay. Just search "who scarf." There are lots of different options, all the way from 8.5 ft to 20 ft long. Since the BBC doesn't actually license these things out, they're all handmade by people at home. It's pretty cool. I hope to collect a few more eventually--they're awfully comfy. :boogie
yay! thanks for that cammy! gonna get that soon...
157 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_157.php)
The first time I saw something "more" in DMFA.
Dan's smile is beyond description.
There are others, not sure if I'll post them right now though.
(#459) yay! <3 paragator, heehee. And I like the idea about the pillows and the volcano, that would be cool to play in....
213 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_213.php)
Because I simply love Wildy's expression in the third panel.
(#477) I'm tellin' ya, that's gotta be Amber's diary! and no kidneys, huh? Yeah, how is that going for you?? :erk
Question on #514 too. Is Dan wearing something to do with nintendo, and is the other one wearing some kind of peach or sailor moon outfit?
Also (#638), why is that rabbit fortune teller wearing a mushroom hat?!
I just have to say #820 is friggin' hilarious! "What? Never seen a black woman before? Actually, I haven't. Oh! in that case! Stare and be amazed! ah, that was some funny stuff. (must also say, they usually don't see humans much do they? even if she is a fae....)
For heartrending nothing beats #158 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_158.php)
The please at the end just says it all.
Quick reply before heading to bed, I'll go through the archives tomorrow or on the weekend to come up with potentially better ones:
404 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_404.php) - Glen not found
715 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_715.php) - It's so wrong, but also so right...
458 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_458.php) - The comic's title is so true... so very true... *sobs*

It's called Captain N: The Games Master (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_N), a cartoon series that hit around 1990. Essentially, in the intro to each episode, we saw live action footage of a guy getting sucked into his TV while playing his Nintendo, and the series was about him and a bunch of video game heros(Mega Man, Kid Icarus, Simon Belmont, a man size Gameboy) battling a bunch of video game baddies(Mother Brain, Eggplant Wizard) in this video game world. The guy had a Nintendo zapper and a NES control pad strapped to his waist, both of which were helpful at times (he could "pause" the game world) and time characters from other games would make an appearance. It was a decent enough series, though the show wasn't often accurate to the characters it showed). In the strip, Dan is playing the guy, Abel is playing that princess who wasn't from any video game, but was with the guy for most of the episodes (and reigned over some land or something, it's been a while)
Interesting to note, in the series they guy would often twirl the Zapper on his finger like a cowboy. As a friend pointed out to me around the time, that's sort of impossible to do as a Zapper doesn't have a fingerguard. Nice to see that in the comic strip, Amber corrects this problem. (If this starts a side conversation into Captain N, split it off into another thread immediately).
I'd also consider myself a fan of http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_293.php (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_293.php)
Neat to see that when Fae get very angry, they seem to sprout/split/whatever extra little sets of wings.

It took me until now that the thread title was changed! :mowdizzy
But anyway, I don't have time to referrence the strips, but I'll say a couple other favorites off the top of my head.
That one where Wildy answered the door shirtless when the nuns and priest came to the door... The line at the bottom got me. XD I lol'd. In a library. I had to force myself to stay quiet.

#518 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_518.php) I love the way Dan says it is valuable to him and then Abel goes and ripes it in half.
#540 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_540.php) Dan walked into that one

No, like I said, she wasn't from any video game, her name was *checks Wikipedia* Princess Lana.
Princess Zelda did make an appearance though, I vaguely remember this episode where she says something happened to the Triforce and then collapses. The guy asks someone else how she knows something happened to the Triforce and the response is that Zelda is connected to the Triforce somehow and anything that happens to them happens to her and I think that's pretty sucky.
Gannon holds the triforce of power link holds the triforce of courage and Zelda holds the triforce of wisdom if i remember my super Mario brothers super show correctly

Still, I seriously am getting very angry over this (even though I know it's a comic, it's still boils ma' blood to see that! I wanna rip him apart, gaaaarooooh!)
Huh, this little side schtory thingmajig explains why abel stays in his room like he does....
Vol 392 (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_392.php) is still may favourite. Emotional insight into a character, a little background info, a good shot of Dan's wings and wing tentacles with draconic heads, a good range of facial expressions and a punchline. Some comics don't manage that in weeks worth of strips.
