Two heads are better than one

In response to my precipitate endorsement, well after six years, anyway, of Kevin McGuire's suggestion that the grafting of Mr Burns' head onto Homer's body in an episode of "The Simpsons" might represent a nod, or perhaps two nods, to the grafting of Typhon's head onto Piaton in TBotNS, Crush rejoins...

..And then goes on to cite cogent reasons and plausible sources. Ah, well, yes, indeed...he could be right! Trying not to feel too crushed, I can only note that the master-slave relationship of Mr Burns and his employee Homer rather neatly parodies that between the tyrant Typhon and his hapless slave Piaton. Whether this is also true in the two bicephalic epics that Crush refers to, I cannot say. Nigel Heu Rostrum! Felix cum aliquis me sapientem arbitratur.
