    Aargh! I hope I’m not ruining this for anyone, but for some reason when I look at the Black Duke today, his moustache looks like his mouth…

  2. MobiusZero Says:

    I agree with Andrew…moustache does looks like a mouth…

    wait..what spies?

  3. JG Says:

    Andrew/MZ: Moustache? What moustache???

  4. Janna Says:

    by the way… where IS his mouth????

  5. MobiusZero Says:

    moustache on the duke

  6. JG Says:

    MZ: The Duke has a moustache???

    Janna: He’s not the first cartoon character to go without a mouth. Haven’t you ever heard of Hello Kitty?

  7. Andrew Says:

    Well, you can see his mouth “clearly” in panel #3 from the behind/side-view… But in any event, “mouthless” works! The question is, if you were to put a mouth on the duke, how would that look with the moustache? Double mouth?

    Note: the guard is mouthless as well, and he clearly has no difficulty in speaking…

  8. JG Says:

    Andrew: not sure where you “clearly” see his mouth in panel 3… But you make a good point about the guard.

    Sorry about the uber-late response, but no-mouth is actually really smart — will make life a lot easier when you start animating these suckers…

    Lise: Animating???
