Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for September 23, 2014

“…and can you bleach the Shroud of Turin?”

Love boopsie’s attitude about the sweat stains…

The lower right Elvis in the last frame lol. I wonder if Hendrix would have had pattern baldness and a pot-belly in his fifties, if he had lived that long. I picture George Jefferson.

…and add all those swatches together and the scarf would reach to the moon and back! But really, Mr. Barnum, they ARE authentic!

I thought this was an Elvis shop, not a Moody Blues one…

Boopsie is less concerned with “authenticity” than presentability.

I find it really great that some rock stars keep their looks for decades: Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen David Bowie….. and especially Paul McCartney.

Disappearing Elvis, second figure from left, has always been one of my favorite strips,

enough of Elvis please, lol

I was never an Elvis fan. Does that make me Un-American?

I like the Elvis imitator working as a sales clerk. Better than ending up asking if Boopsy wants fries with her burger…

This is the first time in these reruns that I’ve seen the altered detail in the last panel. Does this mark the time when he started doing that, or have I missed any?

yeah, this was at the peak of Trudeau’s habit of the backgrounds in the 4th panel always being subtly different from the rest…I loved hunting for those in the books.

Security!! Get this woman off the property!! She’s not a real Elvis fan if she’s asking how to remove the King’s sweat stain from the swatch of a scarf he wore on stage.

Do you have blue suede shoes with His tinkle stains?

@summerdogI am going to have to report you to Homeland Security.

Thanks. I was admiring the 1st panel and had to go back to see the rest.all those little Elvises. Or is it Elvisi?

And that’s why she’s Boopsie. Nuf said.
