Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for October 06, 2023

Priorities, Amelia, priorities. Balloon first, people you don’t like, second.

A balloon floating toward the ocean, and getting it down with a slingshot?

Sounds like the game Animal Crossing

Notice Seagull mirroring Wallace’s expressions? Well done Mr. Henry.

Could a standard penny crack a windshield if fired from a good slingshot? How about a side window? Discuss.

Then do you wanna try for the balloon, Amy?

This story arc is certainly taking different turns. Last week, they were playing with a ouija board and it seemed to be the start of a Halloween story. One of last week’s strips had Wallace asking the spirits for help finding red glass. This week, he went to the beach with Mom and found the red glass and then saw a balloon. Yesterday’s strip and todays follow on from him seeing the balloon.

Make sure the windows up, a penny to the side of the head would hurt like a moe foe…

I don’t understand why Wallace is alarmed at the thought of the balloon going into the ocean. Would it present a danger to ocean life somehow? (And BTW, I am impressed by Wallace’s ability to rotate his head around backwards.)

Throwing things at cars seemed like great fun until I owned a car..

Re: Wallace’s bike coming to a screeching halt, Well done! From the Skrrr, skid mark, bouncing pebbles, it’s all good! It’s the little things. Good stuff.

That’s a good way to land in jail Amelia! Stick to shooting down balloons!

That balloon has some serious hang time! Defiantly a mylar.

This is so Rhode Island.

Wallace, as an adventurer, is many things, but a Vandal, he is not…..

A bike!?

Another Chinese balloon feels the wrath of American Technology!

Amelia.

yikes! If you want to make an omelette, you got to crack some windshields. Amelia needs to talk to someone.

Don’t encourage her.

That “You need lots of help” was the usual greeting between friends when I was a child. Amazing Amelia.

No. Bad Amelia. Down, girl. Shooting things at moving cars is a great way to start your record at Juvenile Hall.

Put it out of its misery?

Akira motorcycle reference!

Wallace has a new shirt!

He needs help?
