Andre: The first thing we need for our comic book is a title. Loris: In big, block capital letters! Andre: Something that sounds like something. Loris: Yeah! One of those words! Petey: Onomatopoeia? Andre: Yeah! But with an exclamation point- ONOMATOPOEIA! Loris: Now all we need is a big finish and some stuff between it and the title. Petey: Maybe a long awkward pause.

Loris understands how to build a comic book—Title, big finish, and some stuff in between. Petey’s filler would work only in a Little Neuro comic, I suspect. I bet Andre would suggest some explosions; big ones: KA-BLOOIE!

I don’t think I can handle all that excitement, Petey.

Don’t forget the ads for X-ray specs, onion gum, soap that turns you black, and a REAL submarine!

Gee, Andre is bright. He knows how to spell onomatopoeia!

Since onomatopoeia describes the sounds animals make, it should be a book about talking animals.
