It's Called Recycling

Today’s lesson from the Cartoonist’s Studio: how to turn one unfunny gag into two!

Panel 1:
Les admonishes Owen and tells him what he has done wrong.

Panel 2:
Owen fails to comprehend the situation.

Panel 3:
Owen offers a lame and unfunny explanation while Les makes a face.

Seriously, Mr. Batiuk? Seriously? Groundhog Day isn’t ’til tomorrow, dude.

…Let’s re-do an old storyline for the next week before we continue with girls BB.

Clearly Pookster peeked ahead (tsk, tsk!) to find that, yes, TB is rehashing revisiting a pet topic of his: students plagiarizing from online sources. This time the offender is Owen. Poor, dumb Owen. In his mind, since he copied from Teh Internets instead of an actual, physical book, well what’s the problem?

At Home with Harry

After a long day of pestering pizza countermen and comic-book sellers, Crazy Harry kicks back in the recliner. Maddie, who has traded Les’ yellow shirt for what appears to be a maternity top, tries in vain to sneak past him up the stairs. I guess today’s “gag” is that unless you micromanage every minute of their time, teenagers will procrastinate, which I guess is true; not funny, but true.
