So, I’m sorry because this kind of makes Panel 3 worse, but if you can squee so hard you break a bone in the process, your excitement is pretty macho.
In more empathetic matters, I deeply relate to this because I very nearly broke my arm a couple weeks ago by slipping on ice outside a gaming store… in an effort to click my heels together in excitement.
Other than the head honcho of the evil doers and his demise being over the top, I really thought the movie did more than an adequate job of capturing the Phantom’s humor and the essence of the 1930s comic strip.
I see people walking around carrying babies and it terrifies me. I know they’re being careful, and that it’s unavoidable, and that people have always done this. But what if they slip?!?
I once broke a rib waking up. My dog (a Belgian shepherd) jumped on a floating rib, resulting in it and my spine making contact.
I also once got crushed on an SCA battlefield. I charged 20 armed, angry warriors, and lost. When asked to describe what happened I responded “I got squished.”

FWIW, I too liked Billy Zane’s The Phantom and really wished they’d franchised it because it had so much potential.

And could have led to a Defenders of the Earth shared universe….
One the one hand: get well soon! On the other hand: ooh, schadenfreude comics!

My dog had the same reaction. It took him 6 months for him to trust me to hold my first child.
Billy Zane should also have been Lex Luthor.

I was once jumping up and down in glee because I won concert tickets, landed wrong and twisted my ankle. Ouch.
I do appreciate the sneezing above the falling on the baby-related item… but couldn’t that have been higher?
Are we not getting another comic strip this week?
I once cracked a rib when my then 4-yr-old daughter jumped onto my lap and her elbow was slightly out. Kids are dangerous.
I once sneezed, hiccuped, and coughed all at the same time. That was an embarassing way to crack a rib. Ow.
