You have a drawer completely filled with rings too, right? I thought everyone did!
When I started this one, the intention was simply to explain that the aliens have time rings. I didn’t know what the punch line was going to be, but I wanted them to try on other famous jewelry in the process of locating the ones they wanted. Green Lantern Corps … Sauron… That, to me, is really the joke of this strip. Also that aliens have a “ring drawer”.
Maybe you can list some other famous rings that they could have tried on in the comments!
“Ten rings for my ten fingers…” – Psylocke (The Mandarin).
Alberich’s Ring (Der Ring des Nibelungen); Dark Helmet’s ring; Ming’s ring….as they time travel; why not throw in the Ring of Gyges? Al-Shamardal had a magic ring; as described by Scheherazade in the 1,001 Nights…
The Mandarin! How could I forget him?
…How could I have forgotten “The Schwartz”?? o.O’; *wailing and beating of breasts occurs…*
The only other one I can think of is the ring of Barahir, worn by Aragorn in “The Lord of The Rings” (though it isn’t as famous as “The One Ring” of Sauron).
Oh snap! Underdog had a ring! I just realized that!
AArgh! The one that carries the ‘Super Energy’ pill, right? I forgot about that one too! ‘forehead smack’
Yep… That one!
