Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for August 13, 2022

Garry, Epstein is comic fodder, in view of all the pain he has inflicted?!!!!!

And that’s exactly what Boops is worried about!

Is he talking to Jeffrey Katzenberg?

This character’s name is Sid Kibbitz, not Jeffery Epstein.

Three words, Sid: Child Labor Laws.

Zonker needs a BIG HAT.

I hope this arc continues next week.

Imagine—Sam achieving the stardom that has always eluded her mother!!

Unless BD finally wakes up to his parental responsibilities and clobbers Sid!!

What could possibly go wrong with this scenario?

Next: It goes wrong.

The more things change…..

I always hated this storyline.

You gotta strike while the iron is hot. Before the scandal shrinks the domestic gross. Sadly, if there is a kid in the show, or movie, there will be a scandal, sooner or later.

Whoever selects the strips should never have picked this one. Even if it does not refer to Epstein it’s horrific.

They are planning to make a biopic about the royals, I take it

Zonker may have his flaws but I had never suspected him of arbitrary child custody transfer. Children are not poodles.

I’m disappointed he left off the Biggleswade Brixham, but it is an international call, and they’re expensive.

Oh God NO

OUCH! Too close…

NOT FUNNY TRUDEAU!
