Fame and Sickness


Publicity for what? When you've got anal fissures, the doctor doesn't even let you sit in a stool, just rest your arm over it and squat desperately over the floor. Doctors in Ziggy prefer to loom over their patients, enthusiastically giving terrible information. When they're qualified at all, that is.

But these strips are often funny, like when a smiling MD hands Ziggy a shovel and tells him: "Don't worry - I'll finish digging for you when you finally fade." They might even bring back the pauper's grave just for Ziggy.
