Batteries hadn’t been invented yet. The only purpose of the tiny man was to turn the tiny crank on the tiny radio.
This does raise some questions
Like… How does he breathe
And isn’t it like super shaky even in a broken ankle?
And where is his microscopic toilet?The writers must have been on some serious shit
With 4-dimensional forceps they could remove/replace him without detection at any time and so they could work in shifts. I can’t help with the rest.
What purpose did the blue man serve? Just repeat what he could indistinctly hear?
Is there some tiny blue man union preventing him from being replaced with just the radio?
A few of them together communicate what they hear in drum circles get paint all over the place.
Just when I get tired of these, you come out with the most batshit insane frame you could find
I can never get tired of the weirdness in old comics. I also have not even come close to getting through my folder full of these.
Time to go on a field trip with Ms. Frizzle!
