Continuity notes

  • As an early strip, this instalment features a stumpy little alien with an antenna and a claw. Non-Zipponian inhabitants of Planet Zip like these would be phased out as the strip continued.
  • The King has a rotating set of headpieces in these early strips – today's is a wind vane maybe?
