Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for December 03, 2018

good ol’ Viola

Somehow even with the minimal drawing, Petey has the expression that there is something new and it might be peasant. THAT is craftsmanship.

Is this the first appearance of Viola D’more?

Gloom surrounds Peter, always.

Watch out for the girls with a lot of crazy hair. I had my first um.. personal experience with one of those, at 14. Ah.. Wilene. Where are you now Wilene?

Viola must be the Uh Oh Baby’s older sister or cousin or something…

I once dated a girl with a lot of crazy hair, except for the hair part.

Are Viola,and Ernesto an item?Such a vivid imagination,Petey Potterpoop ;)

And then she was gone… Like tears in the rain.

Ah, the introduction of the verbally abusive Viola. She’s a bully, plain and simple.

Uh, oh is right. All kinds of odd things start happening when girls start noticing you.

I think even a GPS for Petey would be useless…

Looking at panel two, I can almost hear Sinatra singing “♫…cuz it’s Witchcraft…♫”.

Bravely, Petey resumed the search for his classroom, while not forgetting the mysterious apparition of The Girl With All This Crazy Hair who almost knew his name.

Viola, even more a a frustration to Petey than Ernesto.

Madeline cautiously Uh-ohed….

Ah, Ernesto’s imaginary girlfriend.

Is the mum sounding like a certain baby that is a portent of doom?
