Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for November 07, 2012

Transcript:
Marigold: There go the birds, flying south for winter. I tried that once, but it did not work. Phoebe: Why not? Marigold: Unicorns cannot FLY, silly. Phoebe: Oh yeah. Aren't I a dummy.
Thats not entirely true Marigold. All equines can fly, just not for very long. When they gallop and jump it can be hard to tell the difference.You can also load them on an airplane. :)
There was a flying unicorn In Sailor Moon . And there’s also a flying unicorn in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Well. technically, they were both Pegasuses.
I’ve seen a horse fly, and a house fly, and an elephant fly..Interesting dream the MAR gave up after just one shot. .It was the $ and the glasses that grounded me. The rest of the country didn’t need a myopic pilot.
Fablehaven the queen moves straight to goal, no acrobatics, no maneuvers. Start, magic propulsion, zap, end goal. There is no wasted motion, which disposes the yaw, pitch, roll of true flight.

Say DANA! Just thought of the Perfect voice for Marigold. Actress Jane Leeves, Daphne on Frasier and Joy on Hot in Cleveland. ☺

What’s a flying unicorn called, a pegacorn? I would say Unisys, but that’s already taken by a computer company.

Not really Phoebe.

I would love to see a Pegasuses in this strip and horse on a plane sounds like the next great Samuel L Jackson movie.

also from my comics page, looks like those geese migrated from Heavenly Nostrils all the way over to Ben.

Apparently, Phoebe briefly thought Marigold was Pegasus.

In Fablehaven series the fairy queen is a unicorn. She does not fly, but her minions sure do.

I’ve been a fan ever since O&M was fairly new and so I’m happy to see this tailwags

Flying unicorns are also called alacorns in some games.

“Alacorn” would indeed be a legit Latin derivation (“wing-horn”).

I love how Marigold does not speak in contractions!
