I was thinking along these lines given the arc title "Jungle Fever" with its meaning of interracial relations (and HP! Equivalent interspecies relations) that the story might concern Sabrina/Fido, But didn't want to say anything given the potentianal sensitivity of the subject.

A prince is the ruler of a princedom or principality (from latin princeps, the 'first' or leader of the senate). The "prince is the son of a king" thing came about after they accumulated so many titles in the person of the king or emperor they started delegating them out to members of the family.

So Charles is technically "Prince Charles" because he's the titular head of the formerly independent country of Wales. Which happens to be inherited by the heir to the throne of England.

I don't know whether the other princes and princesses actually have little conquered slabs of dirt associated with their titles, or whether they've given up on that, but there's plenty of princes that don't become kings, though they may be counts, dukes, earls, barons, baronets, or whatever on the way to the princedom.

Trivia: "Count" Dracula was actually Prince Vlad Tepes of Wallachia. "Dracula" was a title, it meant "dragon", and was derived from his grandfather's membership in a secret order of knights. The "count" bit was an invention of Stoker.

Leopards are members of the cat family. They're close relatives. Cats and dogs are opposite ends of the carnivore clan... literally: carnivora is largely split into two suborders: caniformia (dog-like) and feliformia (cat-like).

The character has taken on a life of his own, the best Dracula homage I know is Saberhagen's "The Dracula Tape", which ties in the events in Stoker's book and events in the historical Vlad's life.

If you can, you should immediately stop whatever you're doing and pick up http://www.amazon.com/Dracula-Tape-Sabe ... B004UT5ZEI ... it's really amazingly good.

I said stop what you're doing. You're not stopping. WHY? </glados>

Yeah Jata is Huge, but Fido can be VERY INTIMIDATING.

Actually what really suprised me isn't the fact that Jata and Sabrina know each other, but the fact that she showed so much emotions in this strip. I know she isn't emotionsless or coldhearted, but most of the time she keeps her cool...but not this time

But I wonder, when someone will use her picture in the fourth panel as Avatar... I would do it, because it looks hilarious

If Sabrina isn't considering coming out, yeah this just might make things a little more difficult...
...and perhaps a little more interesting... XDD
