Sometimes I remember that this comic exists and I need to make how hard I always laugh at it everyone else’s problem. 🤓

A 2 panel black and white cartoon by ReparrishComics dated 2020.
Titled “Tolkien vs Lewis: Allegories”
Top pane labeled TOLKIEN: a man asks Prof Tolkien “Professor Tolkien! Is it true that you wrote your novels as an allegory for the First World War?” 
Tolkien responds, looking angry: “No. Never. Ask me that again and I will call the police.”
Bottom panel labeled LEWIS depicts Carroll Lewis writing and looking sad and forlorn as he thinks to himself: “if even ONE person reading this does not understand that the big lion is Jesus, I will set myself on fire.”

Although Lewis still didn't appreciate it being CALLED allegory, as to him that was a very specific thing that Narnia didn't fit.

Yet MANY people did not understand that the lion was Jesus. 😂

Mr Tolkien sir? Are the giant spiders in your stories a reference to how you got attacked by a large baboon spider when you were a small child? "now listen here you little shit..."
