FIFTEEN HUN'D :goamber
*hugs baby Mink* What are you guys so afraid of? That's all he wanted!
That's the mouth off the Dune sandworms, right?

It's not just sandworms. There are actual live creatures with gullets that look like that. I think there's a turtle with one, and I could swear I've seen another one somewhere, but it escapes me just now. If I find something, I'll link you up.
Lampreys too, methinks. Penguins have something similar.
Also: *fweeee*
Relevant men in black quote.
"Congratulations, Reg. It's a... squid. "
THE HECK DID I JUST SEE AND WHY WAS IT SO CUTE?
You can see a picture of the Lamprey Eel on this U-Tube video from Animal Planet: Blood Sucking Lampreys - River Monsters (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SYhOD1Yx10). However, the mouth looks more to me like a Moray Eel as shown in this article from National Geographic (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/09/070905-eel-jaw.html). The description of Moray Eels swallowing also seems to match Mink having a sandwich (http://dmfa.katbox.net/comic/1243-mink-tends-to-classify-anything-edible-between-bread-as-a-sammich/).
You know, I could go into several explanations of why a newborn baby should not be able to do all that but I do remember that this is, after all, a comedic fantasy strip. Also, you have to feel sorry for Mink's mom. Four hundred years and five separate husbands did not prepare her for THIS.

Four hundred years and five separate husbands? When was
that mentioned?

I was kinda joking about that.
Mink is Jin, right?
Maybe this is the real reason why there's still only eight of them...
jeeze, RIGHT after i get my wife home from the hospital for preterm labor issues....
What the video doesn't show is that Mink actually glomped the camera-holder.
It makes you wonder what Mink's father looks like.
Thanks to panel two, I can't help but hear the "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" theme playing over the "video". I almost wet myself laughing.
For those that don't know Rockapella:

With what we've heard about Mink's mom, I'm not surprised she went to what looks like a hospital for beings,
not too well prepared for cubi incidents. Come to think of it, I wonder if this energetic entrance is a cubi thing
or a squigglet thing... or maybe it's ye olde DMFA theme of disappearing camera-men :mowninja

Probably a squigglet thing. Danny boy was nowhere near that energetic.
This proves even Amber is in the dark of what Mink's gender is.
That or she likes to tease her fans.
Mink sure is different in some ways than they used to be, huh?

This came up on the Katbox Forum. Apparently, Amber hinted
quite strongly that Mink's father is in fact the person overseeing Matilda's treadmill exertions in the recovery montage in her side-comic.
I know, looks like a woman but, in fact, a dude. :erk After all, how macho do you expect Mink's dad to look?
At this point I expected Mink's dad to be the Great Old One Cthulhu who visits every time the stars align.

*Looks through the Katbox Forums* Which section of the forum was that in? I can't seem to find it.
Comic discussion threads are in the Artist Alley forum.
The "hint" was mentioned in someone's post, without reference, in the thread for comic 1500. If it was posted elsewhere, I haven't found it.

Bam, found it. (http://forums.katbox.net/threads/matilda-55.9214/) It seems I completely overlooked MissMab's section the first time. :B

For some reason I think I wanna play with this mink more.... I love kids, and baby mink seems like a big ball of fun... Teeth and fun but mostly the fun

I feel I have to apologise to people for dropping such a mind-bomb without a link and then sloping off to live life and such (my tv died, much weeping). I'm a bit of a newbie at this and haven't got a handle on the linking stuff. :B
Still, I hope the revelation was entertaining.
