Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for March 21, 2025

Stick to man, fella.

Now, Arlo, take a seat and wait ’til the bath bubbles subside…

Right on time Arlo, Must have seen her go in there and got the tea brewing. What happened to the glass of wine ?

Darn opaque comic bubbles.

That may be more bubbles than Ensign Pulver got.

She double-dosed the bathwater to ensure “proper” coverage! Arlo may be disappointed!!

Arlo should write a book. “How to Serve Woman” Then he’d really be cooking.

“Manservant” – A man who serves.

Let’s be honest Arlo. You really do this for yourself in the hope of seeing some naked wife. (No matter how old a man gets, or how long they have been married, they will always try to get a peek at naked wife :D)

100%

Arlo’s pronouns are she/her? I never realized, although more things make better sense now, come to think of it.

No, a woman-serving manservant.

In panel two, it sure seems as if Janis is adding the bubble bath stuff with a vengeance. BTW, I’m still not convinced she realizes how fortunate she is to have Arlo around.

just like bubble wrap, Arlo’s favorite Hobby

Arlo knows that a Happy Wife equals a Happy Life….

You know they float to the top.

Servant of woman?

Are they going to play find the soap?

Why does she cover her boobs when she is ALONE in the bathroom? Shy? Forget Arlo. He has seen them many times. lol But not enough for his liking.

We installed a Jacuzzi bathtub and I get in there nearly twice a week, two hours at a go. I put a kitchen chair beside the tub for my water glass, library book, dry washcloth to dry hands for reading and my wristwatch for keeping track of the time. Alas, I don’t have a servant.

I’d prefer a glass of wine!

been there…done that

I was once a manservant, then I moved up to lackey. Next came minion, flunkey, toady, stooge, henchman (2nd class) and finally aide-de-camp.

Is it just me, or does that GoComics artwork in the upper left corner of the page bear a striking resemblance to panel 4 of Gocomics.Com/9chickweedlane/2025/03/16 ?

Janis is sufficiently uptight that she’s still wearing the towel.

I have been looking for ringtone for my phone that sounds like a little butler bell, so that my wife can summon me when she needs something while taking a bath.

she hs a towel only cause we’re watching

How do you write that “whip” sound? Kee-shaw! Chee-rack! Keeeesh! No, that’s not right….

We never take baths anymore, but we do shower together sometimes, it’s nice to have somebody wash my back, and I wash her’s,,,wink, wink.. :)

Such a refreshing change from that dreadful “will they or won’t they move?” thread that was boring the p@%# outta me.

Janis, surely you know that when you use that much bubble bath, you’re practically demanding that Arlo go fetch the leaf blower…again!

Maybe they’ll find out that the tub in the kid’s house is too small and they won’t move. Maybe…

No grapes and sheese?

Who would use one hand to keep a towel around her while preparing the bath? It’s not like there is anyone around other than Arlo to see her naked!
