I trust you all know what "reverse the charges" means? But I suppose it is conceivable that in this age of mobile phones, some of my readers will have never used a public telephone. I'd say it's very probable that there are some readers who've never seen, let alone used, a dial phone (and yet, the verb "to dial a number" is still in use - at least it is in my neck of the woods).

Panel 1: Semaphire is standing at a public vid-phone booth, waiting for the person he called to answer.

Caption:

At a Blacktron Gang Asteroid public vid-phone booth.

Semaphore:

Come on, come on come on… answer!

Panel 2: The vid-phone is answered, but the screen is no longer visible tot he reader.

Vid-Phone Voice:

Semaphore? Is this line scrambled?

Semaphore:

Of course, it's a Blacktron base, all the vid-phones are scrambled.

Panel 3:

Vid-Phone Voice:

Excellent, do you have the laser swords?

Semaphore:

They're being loaded on the ship right now.

Vid-Phone Voice:

Take them to the rendezvous point as soon as possible.

Panel 4:

Semaphore:

I need to stop off at Space Station Clarke on the way, there is some unfinished business.

Vid-Phone Voice:

Very well.

Semaphore:

Speak to you soon!

Vid-Phone Voice:

Yes, and next time, don't reverse the charges!
