Anatomy of a Dragon - Sheldon® Comic Strip

TITLE: Anatomy of Monsters; Anatomy of a Dragon

DESCRIPTION: A green, scaly, four-legged creature with giant bat-like wings sits on a glistening gold dirt. His head is covered in dark spines, heavy eyebrows cover his eyes. He has a heavy chin and smoke protrudes from one of his nostrils.

JOKES:
- Remember, Kids! - A dragon has 4 legs/2 wings. - A wyvern has 2 legs/2 wings.
- a Wyrm has 0 legs/0 wings. - And a WORM is the same as a wyrm, but without the hardcore name.
- Smoke constantly drifts from his nostrils like a teenager try8ing to hide a vape pen.
- Every dragon is born with one armor scale missing, for the benefit of talented archers. (It’s nature’s balance.)
- Practices the “Five-second Rule” for dropped sheep.
- The eyebrows of a grumpy landlord (…who also happens to be a nuclear weapon.)
- Is convinced that shiny armor is just “Stay-fresh” Packaging.
- Believes “revenge i a dish best served at 3,000 degrees.”
- Spends his weekends swiping right on pictures of unprotected royal treasuries.
