B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for October 05, 2018

It’s not everyday that a cartoon makes me laugh out loud. This one did.

The Far Side did it better.

Hal?? I thought only the females did the biting.

Wasn’t there an almost identical FarSide cartoon?

That’ll leave an ugly blot on his record

This is cheesy. If they’re going to steal ideas, they could at least be a little more subtle about it.

Yep, that hypertension is a real bitch.

Is it steal from The Far Side week?

Oh wow. This is despicable plagiarism. The layout is almost exactly the same too. https://imgur.com/gallery/FIZD1

Shame on you, Mastrionni.

And we thought being a mosquito was a carefree existence.

Just a tiny wafer,madam ?

Fun fact.. if, while being bit can compress the area around the bite and thus prevent the mosquito from pulling out.. it will blow up..

Only the female mosquito bites. Hal sounds like a male.

All mosquitoes that suck blood are female.

“Hal?” I thought only the female mosquitos bit.

Hal? Only the females suck blood…

Not likely to happen in real life – skeeters see in infrared and thus see where the blood carrying tubes are, and thus don’t drill dry spots or major lines – prefer the caps.

This reminds me of the exploding ’skeeter on the Tabasco sauce commercial from years ago.

Reminds me of a long gone female friend of mine.

If you have to steal, you might as well steal from the best.

I guess M&H forgot only female mosquitos bite and suck blood. Maybe they’ll try again sometime.

Hmmm…. it’s probably not the first time Hal heard that…

Maybe the artist just had an Oh! That’s right. I remember now.

A big rip off of The Far Side

“Hal”? The mosquitoes that bite are female!

Hariette maybe but not Hal since it’s the female mosquito that needs blood for her eggs.

At least Gary Larson got the gender right. Come on, Mastrionni and Hart. You need to apologize.

they can’t penetrate arterial walls, too thick and not near the surface like veins.
