Alternatively, you could have a Monster breathing in fire out of a fireplace… because he breathes fire… we’re air-breathing humans, he’s a fire-breathing Mosnter…
Ok, i’m done :p
PS- don’t bag your old comics, everyone needs to start somewhere. And even though your drawing has improved with time, the old jokes are still good 🙂
And that’s why English-speakers need to learn to use dashes more often. If your language is not agglutinative (where something that breathes fire is “firebreathing”), this is absolutely vital.

Ooooor just put the hyphen in fire-breathing monster? 😉
Punctuation is a good thing.
Like that old example with:
A woman without her man is nothing
Is that:
A woman without her man, is nothing.
Or:
A woman: without her, man is nothing.
Love the comic so far! (Just reading the archive…)

A woman without Herman is nothing…

Then there’s the feminist version:
A woman without, her man is nothing.
