Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for January 17, 2022

Rose has many talents…

They say “Rose. R-o-s-e. R—-o—-s—-e—-…”

Do NOT cross Rose.

In Knoxville, TN, there is an emporium that caters to beer drinking axe tossers. I don’t go there.

Impressive collection.

There’s an interesting music trophy in the 2nd row.

Ah yes, “Participation trophies”..

Axe throwing?!? No wonder Amelia likes her.

Trophies stuffed in open drawers – that doesn’t seem like Rose. But, whatta ya gonna do?

Just watched the 1st episode of Season 3 of the new Lost in Space. One of the over-achieving daughters of the Robinson’s, Judy, was limited in what she could bring. So she brought a 2nd place trophy. Her parents were wondering why because she had so many first place ones. They finally guessed that it was to push herself to excel and not settle for 2nd place. (We now return you to funny comments).

That last hyphen seems unnecessary.

Axe throwing. She’s a keeper Wallace.

I have a trophy from high school that just says “BOY MOST LIKELY TOO.”

Her talents are definitely varied. She will make some lucky guy a very interesting wife. Hope that he will be up to the challenge and that he has the ability to duck quickly……

The first axe-throwing venue I ever heard of is in Uranus, Missouri: The Axe Hole.

Currently closed for remodeling. https://www.uranusmissouri.com/attractions/the-uranus-axehole/

I respect a man who’s mastered the kazoo.

Axe throwing! Don’t mess with Rose!

That one was handed down by her great-grandfather, Ed Ames.

Who’s our favorite little over-achiever? Actually, she a nice antidote to some of the slacker school kids in my other favorite comics.

Why does Wallace have a kazoo…

I actually knew some girls like that. Brainy and over achievers. Good looking too. As a nerd they considered me harmless, yet kept me at a distance, too.
