My first shot at this piece was something like:
PANEL 1
BOY AND GIRL: La dee-daa, dee dum…
PANEL 2
BOY AND GIRL: Dum-dee dum, Tra-la-la…
PANEL 3
BOY AND GIRL: La-dee dum, Tra-le dum!
NARRATOR: And then they died horribly.
I decided to go with this equally ridiculous but more wordy route instead. There’s a hint of terror on the girl’s face that seems to somehow make the goofy-ass walking in which the characters are engaging seem more urgent than simple frolicking.
See you guys on Friday!

It’s simply uncanny how the narration reads like it was lifted from a closing narration by Mohinder on Heroes. Scary.
Wow, now I’m hearing this entire comic in Sendhil Ramamurthy’s voice.
I have that same problem with Marmaduke.

Heh, that was my favorite line when I used to do consulting as a programmer. You’d get the inevitable, “is this possible” question to which I always replied, “In an infinite universe, everything is possible.”
Hopefully the persuers are prancing as well so the kids have a chance.
Heh. We’re all on the same wavelength so we must be in the same dimension.
But does anyone else notice that it looks like the two are dancing as well? It may be my skewered depth perception, or the lack of shading, but it looks like she’s stepping on his foot and he’s about to launch her (POW!) to the moon.

This also works equally well in the Outer Limits narrators voice.
For me the narrator seems to be George Takei. I have no explanation for this.
I can’t help but hear Orson Welles…. I hear Orson Welles whenever I read *ANYTHING* . It’s like a horrifying yet soothing disease
