  1. Curiosity literally killed the cat in the first story--in the last panel you see the poor kitty's skeleton inside the living muck the professor created. Although I do love the line "Why are you pouring cereal into the flask?" That's the first time I've ever seen a scientist feed his experiment cereal. XD.
    I love the design for the sorceress in the second story.
    The third story has a nice twist with the gold merely being a lure to get rid of nasty people.

  2. The muck almost became a sort of "Cereal Killer" till they destroyed it at the end of the story!

    Bad pun I know.....

  3. All three were winners, even if the coloring was a bit off here and there in the second story.

    And now a bit of news in the area of artificial life/man made life, and no, this isn't a joke....

    The Leading Edge:
    Artificial Cells: Revealing the Secrets of Life

    I can't load the video, basically the scientist found a way to create man made cells to unlock the secrets of life. Fortunately these cells don't do anything but 'live' in petri dishes.
