Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for June 04, 2023

Hammie i’m amazed that you thought this would end differently.

A small repayment for all she has done

Oh, she’d never belive a story like that.

Hammie’s “humor” is not humor, but something else.

And she believed him!

I’m not heavy, I’m her brother. . .(or bother)

Don’t worry Hammie, some of us appreciate you.

Bravo, Hammie. You got her GOOD. Yes, you have a plant on your head, but soon your sister will be punished for it, and that’s half the battle.

Where’s the macramé hanger for the spider plant?

You got her good this time Hammie!

“I didn’t DO anything!!” (long pause) “I just SAID ….”

Really, Zoe? By now, you should know better!

Wait ‘til Wanda starts asking what happened to her Spider plant when she notices it missing from it’s normal spot.

I’m sure Zoe would have realized that was impossible, but clearly her arachnophobia had kicked in at the word “spider.”

Hammie you gotta know your audience. Well on second thought you did know your audience and your plan worked. Well done.

At least she dumped the plant on his head instead of cramming it up his, um, nose.

poor plant.

Hammie even named it Tarantula Lansbury.

Funny but you shared too much info.

No good deed goes unpunished. That wasn’t a good deed though….

Zoe looks like she’s got her 2nd teeth already…j

Spiders! Why did it have to be spiders?

And of all the spiders – tarantulas! Why did it have to be tarantulas?

Actually I thought it was pretty funny.

For all the times Zoe tricks Hammie, he finally tricks her back.

I once had a spider plant and was disappointed when it didn’t do what Hammie said it would do.

My mother had a spider plant that was a fixture in our kitchen for years. Sometimes I miss it, emphasis on “sometimes”.

Nice SFX in panel 4. Very distinctive.

He can’t help his sister is so gullible! Haha! XD
