Well, shucks, Rej! D'ya think thar might be a connection between this gadget and Sanaa's mechanical narwhale? Clearly the rages of the deep have been made manifest on this page. -- Billy Catringer (talk) 07:45, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

Sanaa was at sea. Mechanicsburg is on land. This narwhale travels through earth. It's tusk/horn is a boring drill. The tusk/horn of Sanaa's would probably be a ram. Just my thoughts. Still, it is a narwhale, not a landshark. AndyAB99 (talk) 11:22, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

I don't think it's that boring... NathanTheRammer (talk) 14:17, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

OOOH! The Nun With The Scary Eyes™ wears a scarlet habit! Too cool! (And kinky...?)--Bosda Di'Chi (talk) 11:59, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

She also is wearing tight-fitting slacks (which show off her figure fetchingly), and her crucifix has a trilobite superimposed on the Cross. Which says things about how much "pull" the Popes have. That is to say--not much.--Bosda Di'Chi (talk) 16:07, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

I think technically she's wearing a scarlet veil. A "habit" is a nun's (or monk's) entire uniform, which in most Catholic orders would also include some other items she isn't wearing. Clearly, her order is a little different from the ones that exist in our world. Mskala (talk) 14:36, August 23, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, seeing Friday's strip, it turns out her habit is mostly scarlet after all. That wasn't obvious from the Wednesday strip. Mskala (talk) 18:14, August 24, 2012 (UTC)

And let this be a lesson to you on the importance of a mole machine that can collapse the tunnel behind itself! Br'fin (talk) 12:51, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

I'm impressed at how expressive a machine's metal eybrows can be! NathanTheRammer (talk) 14:17, August 22, 2012 (UTC)

Nautilus vs. squid vs. tiger-dogEdit

Jules Verne wrote of a mechanical narwahl(i.e. the Nautilus) vs. a giant squid (i.e. kraken). I expect Sanaa's minions to show up in the narwahl. Who is manning the mechanical kraken?

• Sanaa is associated with the narwhal.
• Violetta has been seen at the controls of a squid.
• Fraulein Snaug has been known to have fun riding a tiger-dog.

So I am expecting all sorts of good match-ups soon. But mostly a three-way cat fight among the ladies. Probably in a mud pit somehow.

Anyone remember the original Rollerball? It pitted James Caan against the late great John Houseman. The remake doesn't hold a candle to the original.
