Anubis is as bad as Sir Dudley!

Whoa easy there fellow I smell a hint of greed corrupting your soul, and clouding your sense of good judgement.

Not right for Anubis to try to cheat Ma’at. Nobody cheats Ma’at!

Everybody (just about) cheats Ma’at.

It’s just that they can’t get away with it forever.

If Boody’s heart is a diamond, then he reneged on the last diamond lead.

For me, Dogbert comes to mind. Notice the tail in Panel 3.

I’m sorry, I had more of a Wile E. Coyote moment there.

It’s truly wonderful when a friend offers to lend a hand.

Just leave it under the Ma’at!

Great shot in panel 2: shades of Daffy Duck.

Well in these economic times you do what you have to do. Open heart surgery anyone.

I don’t have a lot of hope for that there diamond.

Good ones, Jo Jo and rotts!

Most dragons I know (like Smaug) wear their diamonds on the outside, as part of their armor.

I have skepticism for another reason, Boody: your heart may be pure as a diamond, but it’s also soft as a Twinkie.

Well, as a newcomer to this strip, I will admit to being caught by surprise. I hadn’t realized what Boody was. Sooooo- Oh. He’s a dragon. It would seem a bit unrealistic at this point to expect his daimond heart to be lighter than a feather. Ah, but then we are in the realm of metaphor, aren’t we. :)
