Slaine Tomb of Terror

The strip starts with a cultural allusion
then Slaine whips out his large ..... sword
with which he threatens the kneeling devil woman
but before the blow is complete he is disturbed

Later she finds herself on her knees again, in the climatic scene
finally declaring Slaine to be a real animal
They go down, the ladies torch goes out, and Ukko finds his vision obscured
In the end the have to deal with the emotional zombie
