Well, that's why we get shotty comics nowadays. Ducktales, Darkwing Duck, Gummibears etc didn't have to be believable to be enjoyed...
There is a difference between a comic about talking ducks, and the post above.
Believable means it needs to be believable in the world established / within the context.
A porsche in the middle od a medieval / fantasy setting isn't believable, while a wizard casting spells is.
This post implies "this conversation happened in real life" which no, it didn't.
How about a Delorian in the wild west?
LOL... Beat me to it!
Thanks for proofing my point
