Rhapsodies

Sometimes being pedantic on purpose makes for the best jokes. Today’s strip was inspired by a lecture on Greek Drama I heard which went into great detail how Oedipus the King should be more accurately be called Oedipus the Tyrant since Oedipus was crowned by the people and the original definition of Tyranny wasn’t quite as bad as the current one. (not that I’d recommend the old version either)

As for Nephelokokkygia you can thank Aristophanes.
