I’ve been following Narbonic for a while now.

It’s a webcomic about mad scientists, their henchmen, and a number of other things. I’m partial to comics with on-going storylines and Narbonic is one of them. Not only that, it’s also funny, something that isn’t required for me to like a comic, but it is cool when it happens.

Anyway, that’s not the main point of this post. The main point is that today’s strip includes a visual reference to Sandman #11, “Sound and Fury.”

It’s the bit where you see a person standing against a background and then you realize the person is standing in a much larger being’s hand.

So anyway, that’s cool.

If for some reason you feel inspired to read more of Narbonic, go for it. The archives used to be visible only with a subscription to Modern Tales. Now, however, they are free to all and very much worth the read.
