Volume 1, Page 9

(Click to enlarge) And so we end Volume 1. This is the last of nine pages that comprises the volume; all volumes to follow would also have nine pages. "Battle of the Brits", the start to a continuing subtle rivalry between Wellington and Nelson, is yet again a Wellie fat joke - and one of the more ineloquently stated ones at that. "Nelly Quote #2" is oddly placed near the end of the volume (usually, "Quotes" are the first cartoons in each volume). "The Amazing Cannonball Man", another comic I can't say I like, is unfortunately a weak way to end History Clique's first volume. To this I day I wish I had thought of a funnier punchline than "Well, that didn't work..."
