Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for March 04, 2023

Whatever Todd said has got to be better than Marigold’s idea.

I know you can’t actually talk, but pretending you can helps me think.

I’m going to pretend I didn’t pretend to hear that.

I don’t think that’s a good idea, there’s no way to replace the original Phoebe!

Not Dakota! Anybody but Dakota!

Marigold’s mind wandering, no surprise there!

Hopefully you do not mean Dakota!

Go ahead. Phoebe already has a temp for you in the form of the most dangerous game of all: MAN. Her parents have legitimate concerns.

Please let it be Max!.

although probably it will end up being Dakota like it has sometimes before.

It can’t be another unicorn either because then there is the problem of who is more unique and beautiful.

we have yet to see Marigold really lose her gourd from being alone.

I’m thinking of her running around in circles crying and panicked and neighing and screaming to the sky that she is lost without Phoebe.

Unicorns seem solitary enough of the time but maybe they are in fact herd-type animals like horses and they actually don’t manage too well alone.

And yet I think in this world of Dana’s, it’s possibly that unicorns do better with humans than with others of their own kind.

Although Marigold probably spent over a hundred years all alone staring at her reflection before in her life.

Peppermint Patty is already lining up!

A candy dragon named “Todd”… I love this comic!

Does Mari have this sort of problem when Phoebe is on class?

I wonder what he WAS talking about then.

Betcha Marigold will get her replacement Phoebe all figured out and ready to go just in time for the real Phoebe to come back and render it all useless anyway.

Still hoping for a return appearance of Stephanie a.k.a “Phoebe 2.”

Don’t tell me Dakota is going to audition. Or maybe the goblin queen?

you can’t replace phoebe!

Have I mentioned that I LOVE Tod? Just in case: I REALLY LOVE LITTLE TOD!

" It’s not WHAT you said, Todd!! … It’s HOW you said it !! " … :)

It’s like the I Ching. It provides information vague enough that you can use it to guide yourself to the course of action you already favored.

I nominate Sue. Then let the fun begin to see if Marigold survives the experience.

Marigold gets many of her best ideas while ignoring others.

By the time the auditions are over Phoebe will be back probably

Now I know Marigold and I are spirit siblings.
