Over the Hedge by T Lewis and Michael Fry for October 01, 2023

Whew! I was worried there for a moment!

Wow, deep dive into continuity.

Great save, RJ!

Whew…I thought this was going to go down the wrong path.

Boy, this strip has a lot of lore. They even managed to mention the strips that tried to coincide with the movie.

12/12/2005!

They’ve not mentioned the whole mirror thing in years ever since Sammy switched places with Hammy.

Now I’m going to have to dig out our DVD of the movie and watch it again.

So, a day he could decide to go back in his universe?

Please switch back to Sammy. The strip was much funnier back then. Hammy sucks all the oxygen out of the humour.

I remember the Sammy/Hammy roadkill pizza box bit. But why was Hammy the only one with comic strip rights issues? I haven’t seen the movie; was he introduced there?

Now that “WAS” quick think on your feet/flippers or what ever ….. Hammy is happy and you two are safe ……. :)

And now you know… the rest of the story.

One of you constant readers put me onto this strip a while back, and I thank you for it. And now I understand the tie-in to the cartoon movie my kid watched years ago. It’s all starting to make sense. Sort of. Still working on the tree thing and the falling cow, but I’m catching up.Sidebar: is it me or does this strip remind anyone of the Pogo strip of my (very) distant youth?

Kind of reminds of the first time, when you’re a kid and you hear your “friends” talking s___ about you behind your back!!You realize everybody ain’t your friend!!

I still miss Sammy.
