Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for August 26, 2020

Max and Ferny are gonna be jealous…

Yeah Stevie is right. Unlike movie characters he and Phoebe, plus the cast are real.

No I’m not insane. Or at least not anymore than the rest of you:-).

How was your first kiss? Smashing!

Your first kiss, Congratulations!

Major milestone! Congrats to Pheebs! (Unknown if it’s Stevie’s first.) He’s a nice kid, it’d be good if he became a recurring character.

I never had my first kiss where I (emphasis on “I”) took the initiative.

I wonder if the colorist knew what they were getting into when it came time to decide on Stevie’s ethnicity.

I don’t take issue, I just know that others might.

YAAAAAAAY!

Oooh boy. Does this mean that “Stoebe” is official?

Kissing is very fine. But honestly, a nice, long, warm hug is what I’m craving the most these days.

and he’s all like “Sure why not” Oh Phoebe , I think I speek for every one in the comments when I say: Some thing some thing Max Something something Dakota.

Also, I lover her “Im getting kissed” face.

Somewhere, Max is crying in a hole right now. NOOOO

Awwwww♡♡♡♡♡….

Well, how about that. All she had to do was ask. :D

Phoebe asked for what she wanted instead of spending weeks contriving hackneyed ways to draw Stevie’s attention – that makes her more mature than most movie and TV protagonists.

Aww, Phoebe!! So cute.

First kiss at all of eight years old! Sweet! :D

i wonder what marigold and pheobes parents will say

Amazing! And I thought Phoebe was going to kiss Max eventually.

I love Phoebe’s expression in the second panel.

You go, girl!

Phoebe, if life WAS a movie, you’d have walked in on somebody else making out with Stevie, like, last week. Also, the “want to kiss” thing only ever works in comics.

look how beautiful! a kiss between the two

Their first kiss!

GO PHOEBE!!! I wonder what Dakota and Max will say.

Too cute for jokes…

Of course it’s not like a movie, it’s more like a comic strip.

I have a girlfriend, when we were younger, she said to wait for the right time and place for the first kiss, and of course I did, whether you’re a man, respect your girlfriend’s conclusions!

If I had it to do over again, I would have said “Sure, why not” more often.

He’s right life’s not a movie…it’s a comic book!

Year later, Phoebe can’t get “in the mood” without smashing pottery first, and she can’t understand why.

And we have an interatrial kiss. Between this, Max’s lesbian parents, and Marigold’s non-binary relative, Dana is exploring places most strips won’t touch.

I ship “Stoebe” more than I ship “Braddison”!

Ew

Yay! I hope Stoebe is official

Never thought i would feel this way for a character in a comic strip

But wait… I thought this was made in 2020.

Awwww, MAAAN! I always thought her first kiss would be with Max… :(
