I have no idea why any human being would send Ben and Winslow to go grocery shopping for them. They can’t go to their own grocery store, because all the food would be too small. But at the human grocery store, everything is way too big for them to manage. (Or to be more specific, carry. Winslow can manage the stuff just fine. He’ll eat anything.) The only reason Winslow likes going is because he’s the perfect size to sit in the cart like a toddler.

My wife just finished reading all the current novels of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, and has started watching the first season of Game of Thrones. Since I’ve decided that this October’s theme is “hurting all of my characters in some way,” I felt compelled to draw today’s strip. Last week we had Winslow get disemboweled, so I figured this week we could have Apsara getting burned, Daenerys-style.
