Home depot is selling Halloween stuff NOW… at some point in October they will put out the Christmas stuff. And around Christmas the clothing stores at the mall will start selling bathing suits for summer and the rest of the stores will be getting ready for valentines day….
Instead of costume competitions this year, we can have best mask contests. And they can’t be plastic or rubber – they have to be the best, still COVID-protective design!

Still gotta cover the nose cut-out, Arlo.

What’s this? Fourth wall breaking?!
Also, you’re making decorations for a holiday that’s celebrated at the end of next month! Seriously?!!

But now the game is up, you’d better figure out a way to work Masked Santa into the strip immediately!

How many plague doctors will we get to see this Halloween? Or Hazmat suit people? Any variety that includes full protection really.

what’s the point of making a jack-o’-lantern if half of it is covered with a mask?

You win on this one, Jimmy but you lost by not doing Christmas cartoon right after the 4th of July.

When they make pumpkin pie filling, how do they peel the pumpkins?

Is this the first time that Arlo has admitted that he’s living in a comic strip?

Need to nail in some jumbo Mr Potatohead ears to secure the mask then.

Now let’s see how much less that Jack-o-lantern will be infected and withstand rotting away

Neat! And then you’ll have the first rotted, moldy jack-o-lantern with a really disgusting mask just in time for Halloween!

That jack-o-lantern’s going to be soup if it’s on your front porch, Arlo. But wait, we’re talking comic strip time, aren’t we? Never mind, carry on.
