Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for February 08, 2019

I could go with Justifiable Homicide…

Yes, Verne, but you’d be out of a job. It’s a lousy job, but it beats moving back to the pond you grew up in.

Breaking the fourth wall in the last panel.

Verne is right.

Verne just grew up! Time to make RJ sign a “No Abusing Verne Contract” ! Then and only then may RJ leave the trash can. :-)

Noone would ever think of accusing you of anything else, Verne. Go for it.

Can’t say I blame him, RJ. You had it coming.

just call the service to empty the dumpster before he gets out

Justifiable homicide? "But officer! He was holding a pun!

RJ’s a right git!

Fourth wall violation!

Yes – but I think it would be self esteem defense…

Way to many witnesses.

Verne, you can borrow my car and turn RJ into roadkill like the rest of the raccoons around here.
