Comic 1047 - Approximations

There is a girl named Goldilocks
Who always breaks in, never knocks
And if she's in the mood
She'll eat all your food
So long as it's just right (approx.)

Original comic here.

Not very good, and not very connected to the comic. Boo-urns!

Comic 1003 - Adam and Eve



There once was a shepherd named Abel
Who brought spicy lamb to God's table
But Cain's fruit and grain
Were offered in vain
Which rendered him somewhat unstable.

Scythe in hand, poor Cain's madness grew deeper
Till he acted as Abel's grim reaper!
The God of this fable
Said "Hey Cain, where's Abel?"
Cain said, "Am I my brother's keeper?"

But God knew where Abel lay bleedin'
And Cain saw His favours recedin'.
So he fled from his God
To the oddly-named Nod
Which you'll find somewhere eastwards of Eden.


Original comic here, not that it has much to do with the limericks this time round.

Comic 969 - Delta-P



The Pevensies' littlest daughter
Went hiding where she didn't oughtta
Then turned on the tap
And went for a nap
And Narnia flooded with water.

Comic 956 - Sharing



A tree might desire to be giving
But we've all got to make us a living
So DRM's used:
Ebooks keep you amused
And keep writers from begging and spiving.

Comic 879 - Lamp



There once was a tramp from Beauchamp
Who wished on a fabulous lamp
"Give me money to spend"
But he rubbed the wrong end
The outcome: he's still poor, and damp.

Comic 872 - Fairy Tales



My mother saw learning potential
In tales with more maths than essential;
Puss in Boots thus enacted
Was rather protracted
And Rapunzel got very tangential.
