Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 13, 2018

Good thing Phoebe is drawn without nostrils, or there might be a graphic nosebleed.

Better get some ice for that bump, Phoebe, rather than a unicorn magic spell.

winces ow!

This kind of coordination explains the missing tooth.

The hand eye coordination needs a bit of work. I see long hours of practice ahead.

I hope all she invented was bloody nose and not broken nose.

That there is my lifetime athletic career in a nut-shell.

Panel 3 is awesome.

And now it turns into dodge ball.

I played something similar to that called “Gaga Ball,” where you have to hit the ball in the same way to hit other people to get them out.

This doesn’t look like handball

Faceball (slightly later than) 2000!

That is one uncoordinated little girl.

I don’t think I’d like playing ‘Faceball’ without a helmet!

Strange way of playing Handball in the US. Totally different from how we play it in Europe.

Phoebe got KO’ed!!

When I was a kid we played a sport that had layer upon layer of subtle nuance, strategy, and tactics. It was called “Kill the Man With the Ball.”

Rubber-ball softening spell? That would be the point of Marigold’s horn!

Now I want to open a Faceball account!

Phoebe’s taking it better than Calvin when he took a baseball to the face.

You know, for being able to play the piano and video games, you’d think her hand-eye co-ordination would be far better.

It’s official… she sucks at handball… :/
