Plot: Mudmen are creatures made of magic and mud. In appearance, they can be very much like you and me. A well-made mudman could walk freely among us. However, most mudmen are slaves to their makers, the White Witches. The Whites consider mudmen to be cowardly, dim-witted and generally disgusting. HUMBUG is an unusual mudman. He is a wanderer, apart from his maker. He has learned things about the world and about himself. He will face his greatest challenge yet when he answers a cry for help in downtown LA. In the dungeon of a great witch, Humbug finds creatures of his own kind. In order to help them find freedom, Humbug must help the mudmen see themselves as more than slaves, more than mud.

Quotes:

Tock: [singing] Time is a gift, given to you, given to give you the time you need, the time you need to have the time of your life.

Humbug: A slavish concern for the composition of words is the sign of a bankrupt intellect. Be gone, odious wasp! You smell of decayed syllables.

Tock: Oh, I don't just watch Lethargians. I watch boys, too.

Milo: This is crazy. Here I am driving down a street I've never seen to a place I've never heard of.

Officer Short Shrift: Where were you on the night of July 25th?::Milo: July 25th? What's that got to do with it?::Officer Short Shrift: Do with it? It's my birthday! Boys are always forgetting people's birthdays.

Whether Man: Whether or not you find your way, you're bound to find some way. If you happen to find my way, you will return it, will you?

Tock: You must forgive me, but you see, it's traditional for watch dogs to be ferocious.::Milo: I thought you were just great, but are you sure it's all right to leave those Lethargians back there alone?::Tock: Oh, I don't just watch Lethargians. I watch boys too. And right now, I'd say you needed a watch dog. And anyway, I just love automobile rides!::Milo: Very pleased to have you along. My name is Milo.::Tock: Milo? That's a strange name for a boy. My name is Tock.::Milo: Isn't that kind of a strange name for a dog?::Tock: Oh, no. How many names can you give a watch dog? Actually, my name is Tick Tock, but my friends call me Tock.::Milo: May I call you Tock? It's about time I had a friend.::Tock: It's about time? But time is your friend!

Spelling Bee: Please do not be alarmed. A-L-A-R-M-E-D, alarmed. I know that boys are often afraid of bees. B-E-E-S, bees. But let me assure you my intentions are peaceful. P-E-A-C-E-F-U-L.::Milo: And you don't sting?::Spelling Bee: Sting? Oh, I can sting, but I don't. But I can spell anything. A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G.

Officer Short Shrift: You'll find it quite pleasant down here.::Milo: Isn't it a little dark?::Officer Short Shrift: Of course it's dark. Dungeons are always dark. If they weren't, they wouldn't be so unpleasant.

Milo: That's my speech! I didn't know I was going to eat my words.::King Azaz: Of course you didn't. That's what we're all doing. You should have made a tastier speech.
