Enslaving mankind as a way of getting out of taking tests, or bribing teachers.

Man, ethics is hard.

Excellent lesson you learned, Kevin.

She won’t be able to afford that kind of bribe, Kevin.

Reminds me of a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie I was watching with my mom. This kid was missing school a lot and not turning in homework and not getting good grades in school, and the parents were siding with the kid, and the teacher’s boss said he’d better pass him.

Why is it that most, if not all comic strip cars appear to float or hover while driving? (not sure why this strip stuck out more than others to me, but still…!)

I am hoping that this Helmet arc is reaching its end.

So, that’s it? It wasn’t a dream, it wasn’t kids playing make-belief; Kevin actually build that helmet and became a telepathic supervillain, only to simply revert back to normal after his mom confronted him?

Seems like Kevin has a bright career in politics. You all know The Golden Rule: he who owns the gold owns the rules.

What’s the deal with the three dots on their faces?

Janine actually pays off the teachers? I’d hate to see how long that’s been going on.

Kevin is back to being Kevin. Yay!

Kids are coddled and enabled by good intentioned parents who don’t want to accept the fact that the problem is on their end. Ask an educator in a upper middle class school.

Also, get his vision checked.

“You just waste too much energy looking for shortcuts.” Wow. A real, honest observation to bring the story back down to earth. Great writing and great art.

Mom’s unaffected look in panel three really says it all. She has been around the block a few times with this one. She takes a “I’ll believe it when I see it” position, and she has seen a lot.

I’m guessing Mom won’t opt for Home Schooling…

I’ll say it again:. I want to see Kevin succeed
