Huh. I like Locke.

Apparently, Millie is now bigger than him. They used to be able to Prince and Pauperize.

I agree with this statement.

And we get another view of how the couch universe works. Hmmm... *Ponders*

Well, I stand corrected on the last strip. I like this one...far more than the last.

In my opinion, "Zygote" is one of the funniest words ever.

On a secondary note, I always suspected that this would be how Locke's aging would work. I suppose this makes him potentially immortal.

that explanation sounds like he made it up. I hope so D:

Interesting... I'm glad we may see him again.

Also, DCS hasn't signed upside down for nearly a month, this must happen on the last strip!

Hmm. I wonder why Millie didnn't say Hi dad when he first appeared instead of yo ho ho.

Wait! I just noticed that Locke's tail isn't colored in the last panel when it is in the first!

I second that mostly because A) I'm a Biology major and B) The way Millie used it in the second panel of the strip. Awesome use of the word Zygote Millie.

How come? I find it less disturbing than the idea that he'll die looking like a newborn.

Then again, he did say to a younger Ms. Mudd, "Really? You age backwards?" That would imply a non-cyclical aging system for him. Oh well, there have been more dramatic retcons.

The only other way it could be disturbing is if he starts courting his granddaughter without knowing it. He does have an unreliable memory.

The mood wasn't right for that. Locke had just announced his presence with an objection to the wedding. That's not friendly.

Millie looks a lot like her mum in the last box...

I'm just surprised Millie knew that word.

How is that surprising?

Seeing as she's read and memorized an entire dictionary, I'd be surprised if she didn't know it...

I don't think she memorized it. But I imagine that the last few words would stick with her especially.
