Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for January 06, 2024

There are two kinds of boomerangs. Sport boomerangs are designed so that, if thrown properly, they come back. Hunting boomerangs don’t return, even if they don’t hit anything.

Guess which kind the “Russell Boomerang Grenade” was?

The boomerang that went ’round the world.

That’s not a boomerang; it’s the Nike logo.

…oh my boomerang won’t come back…

Botulism Bob: “Careful, Broomie. It could hit you in the back of your head.”

Pretty nice looking stick you got there Broomie..

I was expecting it to whack her in the back of the head after it got dark.

Boom boom boomerang.

Sorry, lady, it says right on the bill of sale ‘No Returns’.

A boo-merang is a ghost’s favourite sweet.

Caveat emptor, Broomie!

My boomerang won’t come back (sigh).

Just don’t turn your back on it…that’s when it will decide to hit you in the head!

It’s just pining for the Outback… ☺

It’s headed for “Down Under”. Better watch your skivvies, Broomster!

I once threw a boomerang. Lived in fear ever since.

Wait till tomorrow’s strip, esp. when your back is turned…

It’s all in the wrist…..

I like the way getting dark was depicted in panels 2 & 3.

That was a Hunting Boomerang, Broomie. It’s waiting for you to came and collect whatever prey it’s clobbered….
