Nicodemus mentioned earlier that he had advised Caesar in the past. When used as a name, ‘Caesar’ usually refers to the Roman named Julius Caesar, who lived from about 100BC to 44BC when he was assassinated. Also what many people know as ‘Cleopatra’ was actually Cleopatra VII (it was one of those repeating names), who lived from I think 70BC to 30BC. If these are indeed the individuals Nicodemus and Arthur are referring to, it would seem that their reign’s in Dreamland would overlap. However, it is possible that Caesar could have abdicated the throne in Dreamlands to focus on his plans in this world, or that he somehow passed the crown of Dreamlands on to Cleopatra when they were together. Hmm…the First Century BC may have been as chaotic in Dreamlands as it was in Rome. On the other hand, ‘Caesar’ could be referring to the title used by subsequent rulers (in which case, way to be ambiguous), or even more subtle, it could be an earlier Cleopatra. However, the fact that this has not been pointed out in the two years this comic has been up leads me to believe that it is not a big deal.

Merlin: “…should you put him in a position where he must choose between his king and his country he may turn you on.”
Arthur: “wait, what?”
Merlin: “Turn on you! I said ‘turn on you!’”

Merlin’s ears? Pointy? Huh…that explains things, he’s a half-elf!

I’ve never got any display problems with DC. Not in Fox and not in any Version of IE (used 6-9).

IE8 & IE9 are fine browsers. The newer one also speeds out the Fox in the sun spider benchmark.

Back in the days when IE8 was new, it could render many sites properly that you coudn’t view in other browsers – The Fox passed only one in three of the X000+ CSS2.1 tests that were created to ensure proper CSS-support in IE.
