An interesting discussion is well worth comment. I think that you ought to publish more on this subject, it could not be a taboo topic but normally people today aren’t enough to converse on like topics. To the next. Cheers

Masha is a Russian name, so I’m certain I’m not the only one who got Russian from the accent.
Lars, I think you’re trying to read in too much in terms of depth and aren’t looking at story advancement. This strip seems to be primarily as story advancement in Vivol’s backstory.

This really is something else. It’s so different from other comics. It’s very quiet, yet expressive.

Hm… there really is a moon bear – but the moon crescent mark is around its throat. I’ll have to go the Natural History Museum now to look it up.

In general I like this comic and the depth of the characters, but today’s episode seems sub-par in that regard. The total meanness of the ringmaster and Vivol’s total docility seem a bit caricatured, as in a humans-bad-animals-good propaganda piece.
Unless Vivol really *has* done something bad before, as hinted in panel 2.

“see how he hates”

Yeah. Really seeing the snarling hatred there, pal. Though the admonition to behave hints that they’ve come up against Vivol’s vitriol before…now poor V just looks like he’s going through the motions. He does indeed know that he has a new master…

Humans. =P

“Masha” means “bitter”? I’m Russian, and that’s the first I’ve heard of it. Though since the name goes back to the Hebrew “Miryam” (Maria) and possibly even back to Egypt, I’m not surprised that its meaning has disappeared in Russian.

I don’t think that first names really have recognizable meanings in most languages anyway… last names often still do, though.
