Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Reminds me of the donation can at the local dry goods store. Sign was “Blind Fund” … After some time the can, now full, went away and was replaced by a sign that said “Thanks, the blinds work GREAT!”
In an early episode of Gotham, there was a man who was getting rid of people he hated by handcuffing them to weather balloons so they’d fly away. I guess Stephan is a fan of the show.
There was a birthday card that said, “I wish I was the balloon man for just a single day, I’d give you every last balloon so you’d float the hell away.”
Why bother selling them with that end result? I’d help finance a delivery of red balloons and helium to be handed out in Portland and Seattle! Might be an idea for Go Fund Me!

Rat manages to avoid breaking the truth in advertising rule.

Pig: Where’d you get the balloons?"
Rat: “Some guy named Pennywise was having a sale…”

Rat (and humankind) needs a few million balloons.

For all Rat knows, the guy might work from home or take some form of alternate transportation to work.

When the chap finally lands and decides to go back and visit Rat, Rat’s future could look pretty dim!

Why isn’t Rat using one of the balloons? He could really use one.

If enough people give him $10, that will also make the future better.

A man was arrested yesterday for impersonating a helium balloon.
A spokesperson for the police said.. We held him for a while and then let him go..

How is it that Rat doesn’t fly away before he hands the balloon to the guy? I’m guessing the guy weighs a lot more.

Maybe Rat got the balloons at the .99 cent store. 99 cent luftballoons.

Hold on, how come the guy floats away but not Rat? That makes no sense.

Panel #7 says it all. That is the way the world is being ran now days. The saddest part of all is that so few see what is going on.

I’m guessing that the lesson in not running away from your problems is lost on Rat.

Oh he read the sign all right. Rat just follows the lead of certain individuals.

Can’t fault Rat on this one. Consumer beware! Do not assume the sign means anything more than what it says!

Rat is clearly one of those people who consider themselves Progressive.
