Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for August 14, 2020

like I said, Alice is liking André already

Oh, lordie! Alice is really smitten with Andre! “Here’s all my stuff, Big Boy. See? I offer it all to you!”

I hope he lets her down easy….

Once again, a little over 10 years ago, Richard posted a blog entry regarding this strip:

Her first crush, and she doesn’t even know what a “crush” is.

Andre bowled her over with the " fairy princess pirate captain."

Alice & that hat are going to be together for a while!

I love Alice’s crush on Andre <3

So much childhood truth crammed into three panels – and stuff.

Conflict on the not-too-distant horizon.

Petey is getting nervous about his “stuff” being safe with Andre there.

Andre the Giant ;)

I ran out of space for all my cool toys years ago.

If Peter keeps those until he gets older, he is going to be so rich!

If Peter keeps those until he gets older, he is going to be so rich! Unless those are all Archie comics…

I always thought the pyramids were the example of ‘diminishing expectations’…
