Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for July 18, 2023

Oh, I think this is familiar….

L-U-C-Y-Y-Y-…

A nicely done new variation on an old theme . Could she be related to Lucy, a cousin, perhaps??

I know this girl….

What football? I see a rugby ball…

Panel 3: Spud running down the dock yelling “Amelia, I’m open!”

Panel 4: SPLOOSH!

Seagull is wondering if this is a poor flight attempt..

Missing an AAAUUUUGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

He has a softer landing than Charlie.

The classic battle of evil vs stupid.

A variation of I’ll hold the ball, you run up and kick it.

At least he has time to ad-lib the half twist.

Pretty sure this isn’t the own Amelia thinks it is. If it was Spud instead of Wallace…

Nope, it’s Wallace’s turn to throw! Take your shoes off, Amelia.

She’s most definitely a Charles Schultz fan ….

What I want to know is, how was Wallace convinced that this needed to be done on the pier?

Lucy 2.0

Wallace’s “Not impressed” expression as he’s about to hit the water. LOL. Many people have been commenting, comparing Amelia to Lucy. This just seemed inevitable.

Funny once. Twice is impinging on “Peanuts” territory.

a Charlie Brown moment!

Still less evil than the “Lucy Van Pelt prank”.

I love it. What might be my favorite cartoon of the present day channeling my all-time favorite. I’d like to think that Charles Schulz and his gang would be very pleased by this…and equally impressed by the world that Will Henry has created here.

I love that he was still looking for the ball moments before hitting the water lol

And again, and again, and again …
