Anatomy of a Minotaur - Sheldon® Comic Strip

COMIC TITLE: Anatomy of Monsters: Anatomy of a Minotaur

Description: A dopey yet bulky minotaur - head and legs of a bull, body of a man, stands on a stone surface. He has leather straps holding a metal pauldron onto his shoulder, and a leather belt holding a canvas skirt. There is a gold ring in his nose, and his large horns extend past his shoulders. In his hand he holds a piece of paper labeled “map”, with a red arrow snaking around. His eyes are wide, he has buck teeth, and his eyebrows give him a worried expression.

Jokes:
- Dating-wise, he’s “Looking for a lady who knows where she’s going (in mazes)”
- The “I haven’t had my coffee yet” look, but it’s been 3,000 years.
- (Pointing to his nose) When your nostrils are the size of two small studio apartments in San Francisco.
- (Pointing to his legs) He ain’t the Minotaur he used to be. Those knees sound like a bag of pretzels being crushed every time he stands up.
- (Pointing at his horns) Can take SIX grocery bags in from the car!
- Secretly uses high-end beard oil on his everything.
- (Pointing to his back) Back muscles that look like a pile of walnuts in a laundry bag.
- He’s a taurus, which he finds “Hilariously on the nose”
- His interior design style is “early Mycenean minimalist (i.e., just rocks)
