Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for July 16, 2021

Being old and crotchety has its perks … now if I could just remember what they are …

Seagulls can say scadoodle if they need to, I guess. LOL at Sterling’s corn teeth. Love the little bird on the hyphen ♥

But….they had a game goin’……

First time I see the seagull yell in such a panic! ツ

Now that I am quite old, being crotchety is one of my few remaining pleasures. And comics. Being crotchety and comics.

Old and crotchety wins . . . well, something.

I quite enjoyed young and crotchety.

A Very Special Wallace

The very scadoodlest. And the most Williamy.

Also, will that egg hit one of the kids? Who? I can imagine very different consequences depending on who.

I’m kind of surprised Sterling turned tail..?

He’s going to egg his own field? He’s not gonna hit a kid amid all that greenery. Heavens no!

Is a yellow shirt that looks like kernels on a cob the official attire of corn farmers?

So satisfying.

Heh, I haven’t seen the “word” skadoodle in a month of Sundays.

I wonder if scadoodle is a close relative of skedaddle.

“Right into the manure. Score one for old and crotchety.”

THE SEAGULL SCREAMS SCADOODLE! RUUUUUUUUUNNNN!!!!

A switch-pitcher. Now he’s right-handed.

Ah. Too bad…..

Even scared off Sterling (or at least motivated him to follow everybody else).

Why is there a clearing in your cornfield?

Gasp! The seagull talked!

Even Sterling went eep. Of course it looks like he was about to bite into some evidence, And finally, the seagull gets a line.

I wonder which comics will be considered classics of the pantheon, like “Peanuts". “Calvin and Hobbes” and “The Far Side" are now? This will be one, and maybe “Cul de Sac”.

But who’s crying ‘heavens, no’ in last panel, and why? I’d normally go with Spud, but what if it’s Amelia, falling on Spud … other opinions?

All those eyes!!

Well, it IS fun.

Life Goals right there.

Scadoodle, love it!
