Robin Hood: No face given to a True Monarch

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't see the 2010 Robin Hood movie and wish to watch it without knowing part the ending stop reading this section. :)

This comic is about how at the end of the show... things got ridiculously out of hand, so much so soldiers don't give face to a King and instead they choose to cherish a nobody they rarely get the chance to know and didn't even contribute that lot in the final fighting scene. And remember, this is supposedly set in the time when an insult to the King can get yourself killed. Simply brilliant.

Malaysia could be Bankrupt in 9 Years

While millions of fellow Malaysians are running in circles knee deep in the middle-income trap, Minister Idris Jala breaks the news of Malaysia Going Bankrupt in 9 years. Nice, it would also mean for the average Joes and Janes no amount of hard savings can get you out of the trap.

A thought do comes to mind though... despite all the natural resources, petrol revenues and virtually big natural disaster free advantages for decades we are still in this mess; it does beg the question: Should we instead change the people who balance the ledger instead for a change?

Sales of Israeli Flag must be Up

Following the flotilla incident scenes of angry protesters burning Israeli flag is common through out the world. In fact I would hazard a guess myself by saying every time Israel screws up in some way sales of Israeli flag would be up world wide, for a flag can only be burned once.

U.N. Security Council meets on Israeli Raid

From CNN news dated first of June 2010: "Israel faced condemnation and questions Monday at an emergency U.N. Security Council meeting called by Turkey on the Israeli military's storming of a six-ship flotilla of pro-Palestinian activists headed to Gaza with aid supplies."

This is all the news rage at the moment... while both sides started the usual fingers pointing, boarding ships on international water in the wee hours of morning with guns blazing is simply going to make you look bad, no matter the reasons. Read more on CNN news.

Pirates amongst flying Bullets?

This strip is inspired by this news of MPAA Worries About Pirating U.S. Soldiers in Iraq. And you thought they had more important things to worry about in war zone.

Never Fully Trust a Bank or Their Agent

Yeah that happened to me lately. Any one else feels cheated technically by your bank lately? Uninvited credit card, authorized insurance products to name but a few from the stories I heard from friends and family had me at times wondering just how desperate or ruthless these people working in a bank can get.

Can I bribe you with your own money?

A recent hot topic on the National Front (Barisan Nasional) - Can the Prime Minister openly bribe voters and get away with it? Apparently in Malaysia, anything is possible, as per the national mantra of Malaysia Boleh! (Malaysia Can!), set by the 4th Malaysian Prime Minister, Mahathir.

Kinda makes you wonder what happened in the BP meeting room. Interested to know the size of the oil spill?
