I feel like I'm missing something with the final panel. What's the punchline?

 

[Dave]

V still hadn't gotten that diamond dust s/he needed. I think the punchline is that the last panel fits nicely with the comic title.

The bauble is the punchline, I guess?

Remember, Blackwing became distracted with being V's voice of reason when he saw a 'shiny bauble on a dangling thing'.

Or what Ed said.

I'm no good at explaining jokes.

 

[Bubble181]

Nooo..... Blackwing goes back and gets the diamond dust, because s/he is so impressed by the moral and whatever progress V's making.

 

[Shegokigo]

I actually am getting where V is coming from with his attitude toward his mate... That's EXACTLY how I treat people in my day to day life.

 

[kaykordeath]

...but sent the familiar in a disguise because
A) he could have been recognized
and B) accents are funny
C) as are sombreros

 

[General Specific]

Especially in a fantasy setting where neither B nor C make sense

 

[Bubble181]

I really don't think V sent Darkwing.

Accents are funny in any setting, or have you never encountered a pair of drunken woodworkers laughing their asses off at the party's dwarf? Granted dwarfs have no humour and necks break easily in rpgs but...

 

[Chibibar]

Spoiler

basically the old joke is when people in disguise it is always seem to be a fake mustache, a hat, and an accent

but I think Darkwing did it cause he cared and approve V's emotional growth.

 

[ScytheRexx]

The second to last panel seemed like it was supposed to be the realization panel.

He closes his eyes in the third to last panel because he was sad about his family, then the second to last is basically, "Oh right, I kind of need that diamond dust" that leads into the last panel, in which Darkwing has to go in under a disguise since they were both banned from the store.

 

[Hylian]

For everyone who keeps calling the raven Darkwing. The raven's name is Blackwing not
Darkwing.

for the record

Blackwing:

Darkwing:

I am enjoying nightwing's new role in the comic as conscience

[LordRavage]

Shadow Wing has been a nice addition.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

Yeah, I like Blackbird's inclusion!

 

[Soliloquy]

Personally, I'm not a big fan of ol' blackface. I think his inclusion has some racist undertones.

 

[Hylian]

:22:

you are just trying to drive me insane aren't you?

 

[CynicismKills]

No hylian, we all understand Browntail's importance.

 

[Bubble181]

Sure, and I think it's a nice thing you did reminding us all exactly of how Blackhawk's name is pronounced.

 

[Singularity.EXE]

Oh man I haven't thought of Blackwing in forever.

Thanks for that! What a great show!

 

[Gusto]

 

[ThatNickGuy]

I don't get it.

What does Nightwing have to do with V's bird, Black Condor?

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

seriously, don't bring up nightwing when we're talking about nightwing. what's with people these days?

 

[North_Ranger]

Arr, the bird be a spy from the Spaniards!

Roast 'im!

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

Impossible! The raven from Spain stays mainly on the plain!
