Manic Monday Triple Overtime--Merlin Was A Terrible Magician!!

I know we all have this image of Merlin as a Gandalf-like figure, doing major sorceries while manipulating the future of England.

Herbie, you see, had traveled back in time to get dragon tears, a necessary ingredient in Leonardo da Vinci's secret super-rocket fuel, so the U.S. could beat the Russians to the moon. Typical Tuesday for Herbie...

Merlin doesn't take the presence of a superior magician lightly:


Man, Merlin, whatta dick!

From Herbie #1 (1964)
