Transcript:
Alice: Petey? Think fast. Petey: Alice! You're supposed to say that first real loud. Alice: The finger points of sports elude me. Dill: Did we win? Beni: Throw it at him again and find out.
I hope Petey has retired to the privacy of his sanctum and is finding consolation in reading the latest Little Neuro!Alice, Dill, and Beni may some day have learned the finer points of sports and sportsmanship, but clearly that day is still far off.
Great second panel also, with the halo around Petey’s head in all its variations. And as per usual, great sound effect. Richard, you would’ve made a great consultant on the old ‘Batman’ series for the fight scene graphics!! PFLOOMPF! SCHMAP!!
Wow, I am so happy to find Richard Thompson still doing this comic, I think it is on the order of Peanuts and was very saddened when Madison newspapers claimed it was being discontinued. In the context of their article they failed to use the proper language to put the responsibility on them for not continuing the strip.
