Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for April 02, 2023

And best of all, there isn’t a Starbucks in sight!

Watched too many Road Runner cartoons lately, huh?

Out of the paddock and on your knees – I “pad”, you didn’t assume that!

Oh, how incredibly miraculous! Guess, it’s definitely not “The mirAge of Aquarius”, man!

Before there was a “coffee to go” there was a “coffee to crawl” – that’s evolution and that’s all

All day I faced the barren waste without a cup of coffee.

Dark black coffee

C1 – Horace visits his old friend Cliff…!

C2 – Horace should give up the Coconut Rum night cap…!

that’s just pitiful

Horace, lives, dreams, drinks coffee!

That’s not water, that is vodka. That is not coffee, it’s apricot jam. The mug is a mirage. No zZz, it’s no dreaming, he is in a hallucinatory state

An interesting way to ruin water, Horace.

Why else did he lug that solar stove all that way? :)

(Sometimes Comedy Gold hurts.)

The way to increase the caffeine is to add espresso to the regular grounds. If you just add more grounds the flavor gets harsher. I’m assuming everybody likes a smooth cup that makes you say, "man, that’s a good cup of coffee.

I’ve been enjoying Horace’s adventures. INHO this is one of the cleverest strips on GoComics.

At least he’s getting some good dreams … :)

That “better mirages…better mirages” is IMHO one highlight in this strip’s history.
