Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for March 29, 2021

Could be worse. Could be the Far Harbor program in another game. Although I suspect Wallace might like that one more.

Best mother ever.

Hard to see from my phone but I perceive a little parental wistfulness of a place that is lost in the future and only available in artificial reality.

Reading this strip, which I absolutely love, makes me wonder sometimes just how far removed from Will’s reality it really is…

I believe that is actually called a Hag Stone.

Mrs McClellan is a great Mom.

Wallace: “It’s sooo real I feel like I can just reach out and touch it!”

Panel 3. I think most of us agree with Wallace here.

The Seeing Stone seems analogous to the knothole in the wooden fence in yesterday’s strip. Here’s what mickjam said about that in yesterday’s forum:

“Just taking the care to put, in the final panel, a knot in the wood plank. It’s like you get to peep through this tiny portal into their world, one which is kinder and gentler. Awesome.”

An uncanny insight, no?

Wallace should be using it to look at stock market futures.

I love how Wallace’s mom is on the same page as him! They have the same adventurous imagination!

I see Will has picked up another nickname.

A hologram of Snug Harbor on a spaceship, or Snug Harbor for real – either way, your future is sweet!

Computer, end program.

Definition of Imagination: Wallace of Snug Harbor

I love you Wallace

My Holodeck is permanently set to the “29 Year Old Raquel Welch in a String Bikini on a Desert Island” program.

If you had a holodeck that could recreate any historic event or create a fantasy to your specifications, why would you ever leave? Other than for clean up or because Quark said your time is up?

The world would be an incredible place if more mothers (and parents) were like that.

This is one of the reasons why parenthood is great.

I’ve read that, if you find a rock with a naturally formed hole in it, that you can see the fairy world through it.

If he had two of those stones he could see it in 3D

I read you see the fairy realm through those.

Spud needs that

I’d run that program!

I love Wallace’s imagination :)

I thought a rock with a hole in it was called a bagel.

Every day. Every. Single. Day. There’s one more reason to love “Wallace the Brave” even more than you did the day before.

Wasn’t there a one-liner comic who said he wanted a 1:1 map of his state but couldn’t fit it into the glove box?

No snark here—I just love this strip! Will Henry, you make my day.

is it fake

Wallace is a trekker.

Nice homage to Star Trek: TNG, Mr. Henry.
