    I find it kind of funny that we call pointed things “star shaped” when actual stars are literally just spheres, the least pointed object you can possibly have.

      Indeed. The idea of the comic is not to be a vocabulary-builder, but an opportunity to enjoy words for their own sake; their sounds, their meanings, the images they can conjure in the mind, the places they take up in our imaginations.

        Is it your comic? If so, good job.

        I consider myself to have a decent vocabulary, but I would not have gotten sinuous’ definition correct.

        Harbinger I knew, but it’s nice to see In a positive example.

        The other two were new to me.

          Not mine, but I’ve been a fan of Grant’s for a few years, and I know he’d appreciate your kind words.
