Heathcliff by Peter Gallagher for January 28, 2021

Filet of “s(t)ole”.

If he can afford a helicopter, you’d think he could just buy the fish.

And we just stand and watch, as usual.

I guess the outer space aliens returned to their home planet. So this time it’s just a helicopter he’s hanging from.

Scotts 775 was close when he said yesterday, “Tomorrow he will be a swinging cat burgalar stealing meat from the meat store.” What’d ya know. He’s still after the fish store itself.

The cat burglar could have added in a fight scene with animated “POW” and “BAM” words just like in the 1966 Adam West/Burt Ward Batman TV series.

Fishin’ Impossible

Heathcliff and Catwoman would make a great team.

Is there a pattern between his cat burglary and therapy?

Leave it to Gallagher to constantly beat a dead horse (fish).

This feels like it (and Tuesday’s strip) are part of a set-up and the punchline is coming later.

More like fishburglar if you ask me. A bank robber isn’t a bank, and a car thief isn’t a car.
