I spotted one spelling mistake in this comic: It should be "Cyclops", not "Cyclop". The word Cyclop does not exist! A Cyclops is a member of a race of promordial giants in Greek mythology, and is a singular form, not a plural.



Sorry, I've seen this mistake (English speakers thinking just because a word ends on an -s it must be a plural, and then deleting the -s to form an incorrect singular) far too many times in fanfiction, comics, and even Hollywood movies (Hellboy, I'm looking at you). And it's usually the British or American native speakers who do it, not the people for whom English is a second language.



Time and again I see people incorrectly writing "Cyclop", "bicep", "Homo sapien". No. Plural of Cyclops is Cyclopes. Plural of biceps is bicepses. And taxonomic names are not put into the plural. It's one, two, three Homo sapiens.
