Chasing a bad guy/being chased? (Also I know that’s a Johnny Bravo clip and it’s crap quality, but dear god, it was impossible to find actual Scooby Doo clips of this gag. o_o)
I thought when it was dark you couldn’t see anything at all! Or maybe that’s just when it’s darkest.
I wonder why she was walking through dark doorways. Maybe she’s meeting up with Lois and Wilson!
Or “ring ring.” Whatever floats your boat.
Of course you do, Ollie. Of course you do.
I wonder whose house that is. Canary’s? Really interesting that one side of the path has grass and the other side is apparently the…desert? Not grass, anyway.
And look at Ollie’s curls! They’re so bouncy and fresh. I wonder what product he uses to keep them looking so pretty. On the other hand, he seems to have forgotten to fold up the brim today. It looks like he’s wearing a warped soldier’s helmet.
Clearly Penguin has had enough of Robin’s dancing.
Dick looks pretty perturbed about it. He is a showman. And showmen don’t like being told to stop.
I’m also snickering at the coloring error on Robin’s gloves. How hard is it to remember which parts are red, yellow, and green? Apparently quite.
Doodles don’t mean anything? I am shocked and appalled by that accusation, Super Dictionary! Doodles always mean something! they’re very important to the lifeblood of art!
Doodles might not be very refined, but a lot of the time they do mean something. Even if that something is “Batman smells.”
Sorry for the lack of updates recently! Part of it is just my fault for feeling stressed and busy, but yesterday was not directly my fault.
My Macbook Pro died suddenly yesterday and I was hoping maybe it would magically turn back on today (no such luck so far), and that’s the machine that all my Super Dictionary files are on.
I’m just going to suck it up and rescan a bunch of pages onto my PC (I have both because I only have a Mac because I had to for school), but uh, yeah. Computers, right?
All true, but I’m still really sick of all these “do” derivatives.
====
I don’t know if we’ll ever escape the swirling vortex that is The Super Dictionary’s obsession with the word “do” and every variation thereof, but we can at least escape it for today, because this word concludes today’s page of The Super Dictionary!
Come back tomorrow for hopefully less helping verbs and more real words!
Check out under the cut for today’s unchopped page! (Fun fact: Parts of this page were used on the back cover!)
Well done, Super Dictionary! You managed to define an animal with enough detail that a child can actually decipher what the animal is. With a picture to boot!
I guess there’s a first time for everything.
Now I just want to know why Dinah is riding a donkey and where.
All I can think of is The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, a movie about gold prospecting in Mexico.
Maybe she’s searching for gold.
(I am amused that Canary’s just been lifted from a picture of her riding her motorcycle and transplanted to a donkey. It doesn’t quite work. She’s definitely about to fall off that donkey’s ass.)
This is the fifth one. It’s getting a little ridiculous. Surely you could have saved time and just made a massive definition. (Did, didn’t, do, does, and now done.)
Blah blah blah. I’ll ruin the surprise for you.
Maybe he made her laugh with his gross food?
Maybe he’s crying inside as he’s running away from her, because he was trying to be impressive and she just laughed.
Who knows.
How did he get that single dollar, Teri?
Really. I’m super curious.
Were you just staring at it when this nefarious mustachioed man came up at grabbed it out of your hand? And did you just notice that he took it? Because he’s nowhere near you anymore. Quick! Before he escapes out the panel!
She just knocked out Supergirl.
I’m really surprised that Hippolyta let Diana have dolls of men.
I’m more surprised that she somehow has dolls of people who aren’t even heroes yet.
I’m most surprised that the Atom isn’t featured in this collection of dolls. After all, he’s been doll sized twice now!
Hmm…maybe The Super Dictionary should have specified that a “doll” is a toy that resembles a human. Because just calling it a “toy” puts it in the running to be a synonym for a toy truck. And that’s awkward.
(Supergirl Costume Tally: 8! Finally! But only because of what must be a coloring error because otherwise, Supergirl, when did you think spray-tanning your legs would be a good idea. Oh, and her shirt sleeves are shorter and she seems to be missing the deep V-neck of her 1970s costume.)
Taking a break from pretending he’s various small mammals, Krypto has decided to impersonate fan-favorite dog with a doghouse: Snoopy!
Two more things:

While we leave the Red Baron to his flights of fantasy, we conclude today’s page of The Super Dictionary. Come back tomorrow for more high flying adventures, but don’t throw your dog out the window to see if he can fly. He won’t appreciate it, because he can’t.
Check out under the cut for today’s unchopped page!
Ignore that rogue Krypto in the corner. He is of no importance. (He’s part of the next definition.)
Other than that, nothing of note here. I’m sure Conjura always does her best. Her best is just kind of strange sometimes.
I feel like the next sentence should be “They think he’s smelly.”
(Don’t be a smelly person, kids, doctors won’t want to see you and you’ll DIE.)
That is some fishing line.
Is she fishing because she’s Catwoman? And cats like fish?
I’m waiting for Aquaman to come over and kick her ass for eating his subjects.
Way back from “did” we had a mystery! Now we know the answer!
Well let’s take a look at what “did” actually said, shall we?
Hmmm. Well. I’d say that my guesses of “Joker sprays acid all over the trap and/or Batgirl” and “Joker laughs” weren’t too far off. He certainly sprayed Batgirl with some laughing gas, and he’s certainly laughing to himself.
Though that’s a little terrifying because Joker’s laughing gas either permanently paralyzes a smile onto the victims face or murders them, depending on which version of the gas you’re using.
Well they do say that the Egyptians really got us started on that whole “math” thing, and they also say that Hawkman and Hawkgirl are the Thanagarian reincarnations of Thanagarians who got stranded in ancient Egypt. So that’ll do.
I’m glad this isn’t about “dividing” their possessions. I’m getting a little worried about the stability of the Hawk marriage.

And so ends another page of The Super Dictionary. Come back tomorrow for more adventures!
Check out under the cut for today’s full page!
What friend? I only see Wonder Woman and her star-spangled butt.
And I don’t think that’s how anyone dives. In fact, that’s a really bad way to dive, especially from a high place, because you could break your neck doing that.
I wonder if there were any Super Dictionary related child deaths due to bad advice from this books. Hopefully not!
(ZOOOMmm!)
She can spend all her time being like Fassbot3000, watching timey-old-timey movies and imitating their mannerisms while spying on her human passengers’ dreams.
Maybe Silver Age Lois is hanging out inside.
Then why’d you drag your date here, Wilson?
You look really pleased with yourself. And your date looks ecstatic at seeing this creepy old Victorian house.
Or are you showing her your childhood home and trying to subtly explain that you didn’t have a very happy childhood? If that’s the case I think it’s going over her head, because she looks ready to ask you to take her inside.
Or maybe porkchops? Lamb cutlets? In any case, he apparently eats better than the Kents.
Excuse me, Krypto, but I’m pretty sure I saw you eating from a pie dish that time you stole a pie.
