The story of Rapunzel
I need your help in trying to understand something: the fairy tale of "Rapunzel." You know, sounds simple. But not when you think about it. You know the story, the gal with the really long hair stuck in the high tower and the prince comes along and says "let down your hair!" So he can climb up it...and do what? He can't save the princess if he's stuck up there, too. Sure, he could get down again by climbing down Rapunzel's hair again, but that wouldn't help because she'd still be stuck up there.
I guess the moral of the story is don't let yourself be locked up in a really high tower with no way of getting down? I made this comic because I was struggling to understand the story.
Or perhaps I'm so bored I'm overthinking things? Perhaps what the prince should do is make her jump out so he could catch her. That way the princess could get saved and actually live happily ever after.
