Hairbrained

Here’s a link to today’s “comic”

Dr. Patella comes into the waiting room to share the good news with Les and his yellow shirt. I can’t get too worked up over the “double take” in panels 2 and 3…Just tell me what the hell is going on with Susan’s head in panel 2? She looks even weirder than usual, and I’m not just talking about her deranged expresssion! The “artists” who apply color to TB’s masterpieces have always struggled with demarcating which areas of her head are hair and which are forehead…whoever worked on this one just threw up his hands and gave Susan a brown, wrinkled turban. Anyway, what happened to the rather fetching new look she unveiled at Les’ New Year’s Party?

Here is a link to today’s hilarity

“Two large coffees; would you like anything else?”

Yes, please: I would like three punches in the face. One for Smirkin’ Stalker Sue, for continually hanging around Les. One for Les (make that an extra large!) for continuing to string along these two dopes (and just for being Les). And one for Cayla, who you think would have more self-R-E-S-P-E-C-T, for continuing to be the doormat.

We’re obviously being set up for some stroke-of-midnight showdown or non-showdown here.

Wouldn’t we love to see that long-awaited showdown? A fierce, champagne-soaked catfight between the two (living and breathing) rivals for Les’ affection? Ain’t. Gonna. Happen.

At the stroke of midnight Les will no doubt be talking to Lisa again, while the other (remaining) guests will be rolling their eyes. “Uh, what’s Les doing over there?” “Oh, just talking to his dead wife again, he does that all the time.”

Yup, no doubt.

You can pretty much see where this is going: at the stroke of midnight, as Kayla and Susan look on, Les kisses Zombie Lisa.

You peeked, Charles! Nah, we all saw this coming, didn’t we? But c’mon, let’s give poor Les a break. After all, it’s only been how long since…

…Lester’s weird obsessiveness would be creepy even if it was only three or four years since Lisa died, but 13? That is pretty messed-up…

Ten years for the jump plus three real-time years since equals 13 years of moping. And while grieving is perfectly normal, particularly for one who died such a lingering death at a young age…comes a time when you accept the way things are. Even in the comics.

Happy New Year, folks!

In the Midnight Hour

Almost midnight? Time for some huggin’ an’ a kissin’! Bull has loosened up with a few drinks, and Ann and Fred Fairgood exchange fond glances. Cayla and Susan each look for their man, but…where’s the host with the most? No doubt, he’s with a ghost.

TB cuts Cayla a little slack today by drawing her to look like Valerie from Josie and the Pussycats.
