Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for January 15, 2021

Sterling will design the best amusement parks!

And he feels so at home in it.

Sterling is so crushed. It’s like finding out that Santa Claus is just some drunk in a red suit working off a debt so he can buy more booze.

I think this is the most we’ve seen Sterling speak. It’s a complete sentence.

The Sterling version of a ball pit..!

I really want to see Sterling playing in the “eel pit!”

Though maybe it’s better left to our imaginations.

The cartoonist knows best.

Sterling is growing up. He’s almost as tall as Wallace.

It’s Paradise! Notice, no one is staring at a phone!

Sterling reminds me more and more of an Addams Family character. I could see him having his own pet electric eels.

This is the first time I’ve seen disappointment on Sterling’s face.

There’s no doubt. That kid is different.

Those are not pet fish in the grocery store.

Three seagulls in the 1st panel, take that readers!

I don’t get. Every playground I knew had an eel pit. Must be a regional thing.

Oh let Sterling have some fun.

Your daily reminder that Sterling is one weird kid.

I’m really curious about Sterling’s future.

There’s an eel pit. Mom, pleeeeeeeeease let’s go to the playground…..

Mom needs to get them out more.

Love the giant jaws displayed on the wall.

Salty dogs and sea shanties.

“But no one else is there!”

Anybody else want to join?

How can you say no to those sad eyes!?

It must be Friday, I am waxing nostalgic … actually, first I find it amusing that so many of the commenters think that Sterling want to get INTO the “eel pit” vs. just watching the eels. Not that I disagree with him wanting to get into the pit … However, I remember going to Asian markets with my Mom and seeing all of the live fish and eel tanks. Later as a professional I did quite a bit of work in different parts of Asia and would wander through the fish markets and eat at “aquarium” restaurants just to watch all of the fish.

Sterling left his eel pals behind when he ended up in dad’s lobster pot.

Wheeeennn an eel lunges out and it bites off your snout, that’s a Moray!

Don’t forget those oh-so-fun lobster pots!

One of several Homeric epithets for Ocean: Playground of the Fish.

I know its hard for you, sterling.

I´ve never seen Sterling sad
