			[[File:Terrible grimace and purposeful sound.....jpg]]

			Or is it "with a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound"? No matter. Poco, the Roundworld version of the swamp dragon, saving his master from a bar fight.

			Full permission for reproduction granted by Poco's creator W. Byron Wilkins who wrote to me thusly:

			"Sure, go ahead! I’d be honored! A good friend of mine used to edit Pratchett’s newsletter or something along that lines, so I’m semi-familiar with his works."

			The other half of the bargain: For more of Poco's adventures with the rock group ''Plan 9'', go to the wonderfully good webcomic '''''[[http://1977thecomic.com/ 1977: The comic]]''''' and be entranced and amused. Warning: definitely NSFW in many places but all the better for that.

			And - thanks, Byron! [[User:AgProv\|AgProv]] ([[User talk:AgProv\|talk]]) 15:23, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

	Discovered a marvellously funny webcomic called simply '''''1977''''' (subtitled: A Rock & Roll Comic by W.Byron Wilkins). There's no direct Pratchett-related stuff, but one of the characters is a slightly embellished Bearded Lizard called Poco, who will eat ''anything'' and when alarmed breathes fire. The way he is drawn is pretty much how I'd visualise a small pet swamp-dragon!
