    I’m not sure I get it… though admittedly, I have never seen Disney’s version of Beauty and the Beast. I’m guessing one of the personified objects has a significant chunk broken out of it?

      Yeah, “Chip” the teacup, which I think was maybe implied to be a chipped tooth for the human kid he used to be… but who knows.

        I assumed whomever was in panel 6 was someone with a significant chunk broken / missing and so turned out to have been accidentally eviscerated or missing an arm or something after displaying the head wound as the result on panel 5.
        Though head wounds do bleed like the dickens.

    Shouldn’t Lumière’s head and hands be on fire? =P

      What? That’s ridiculous and makes no sense.

    When you think about how long they’ve been furniture and household items, Chip is either severely developmentally disabled, or he was born as a teacup, which just raises more questions. Who was his father? Where is he now? Was his father some piece of china that broke a few years ago, and they just replaced him with a regular, inanimate platter?

    There is no answer to these questions that is not horrifying and/or sad.

      I’m pretty sure that the implication is that the household staff and servants who were turned into furniture or dishes simply stopped aging for the duration of the curse, and any damage incurred during that time was instantly healed without ill effect.

    ALSO, while we’re on the subject, does Lumiere regenerate as a much shorter person? He spent how many years as sticks of wax on fire? It was many years. On fire.

    I like how every now and then you slip some color into your comics and it’s always red and always blood.

    I was like, Oh yeah Chip is technically injured
