And, yeah, I caught the "supposedly." Works for me and the gag needs that quick set-up. Then again, what do I know? I spent 25 years in a business where you can recycle anything as long as you tag it with "reportedly."

Scanned it last week? Hmmm...I just read this comic in my Funny Times that showed up Monday, so you must have been seriously pushing the deadline!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty funny comic, though, so I hope the editor thought it was worth it...
THANKS! I saw it in "Funny Times" and thought "man, I wish I had a better copy of that one!
ReplyDeleteYe cats, that one has me rolling. I love it!! You're a great cartoonist -- sad I missed you at SDCC! I was manning a booth most of the show.
