Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for October 13, 2022

Not a man in a purple suit, Eldo, but a woman in a purple coat. Nice touch, huh? (Andy’s “amour” is more like ill-fitting and rusty.)

fat Stan needs more … fattening

Well Andy, at least you might still get to horse around…

foamenting the right approach line leaves Andy light headed.

Andy, I think that you have found a female version of yourself. All she wants is free drinks. And if the cost is to listen to you babel, she’ll pay. As long as the drinks keep coming that is.

Purple coat sighting!!

BTW, which of the Four Horsemen would Capp be??

Lighting in the bar must be really dim.

So, will he buy the lady a drink?

Just as he is about to steal a kiss, Stan crashes the potential romance.

Stan the Man does it again. He shot down Andy.

Shot through the heart And you’re to blame. Stan gives love a bad name. Apologies to Bon Jovi.

Purple coat sighting!And why would Stan saying this make the strip funny? Just leave Andy with a perplexed or angry face. Sometimes, less is more.

She is looking for a shining knight to protect her from the monster approching.

Here we go again, another brawl between Andy and and Fat Stan. This may be a record, Andy hasn’t even had a drink yet.

For a moment there, I thought Andy was giving Stan the middle finger.

Andy is more like a knight in rusty armor.
