Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for December 31, 2023

Upvote for New Year’s Disillusions.

“Be careful of what you dream for. Amelia may want to make it happen.”

Clearly Spud does not want to go to the moon

Don’t send Spud to the moon! It’s made of cheese and he’ll eat it!

As Jackie Gleason said " To the moon " ( look it up for all of you who aren’t 100 years old, like me.)

A winter walk, a starry night. Four friends, each in character, yet no one predictable. Real, alive. Verisimilar verisimilitude. I love each one, frankly and unreservedly, these very real children. We are all lucky to have met them.

Don’t forget the basketball.

BANG, ZOOM!!

In Zero Gravity, dunking MUCH easier!!

Phoebe and her Unicorn are on the moon in their current story arc – though not in today’s Sunday strip.

With friends like that, who needs enemies… it’s been good knowing you Spudy boy!

Spud,” She’s touching me!”

Where is the light source coming from? In every panel part of their body is in shadow. I feel like the moon wouldn’t be bright enough. They went down the the beach, a bonfire we can’t see perhaps?

Spud: “She loves me to the moon, and back!!”

One word Spud – stepladder.

… and we saw Spud training for that dunk so many times!

Impressive dreamers are they all. Well, they are children. And they play outside, not on videogames.

Aim high but accept your shortcomings…..

And Rose will have to help with the math side of it, because it’s sure as heck not going to be any of these three knuckleheads. :P

Spud can always find solace in his ability to rock the mic.

I remember watching the first Moon landing with my grandmother. She talked about the news when the Wright Brithers flew, and now we are on the Moon.

I would be ashamed to tell her that we’ve never been back since she died.

Think big!

Since I no longer have to get up for work on Mondays, one of the things that continue to make Sundays special is the wonderful Sunday Wallace the Brave strips.

Shoot for the Moon, hope it hits the basket.

I’m with Amelia there, heheh.

“He floats thro’ the air with the greatest of ease

The daring young man on the flying trapeze"

Title panel: The four are walking over the knoll they are stepping off from in the first panel with a myriad of stars in the sky.

HAPPY 2024!!

Spud has dreams like many NBA stars

You can see pure terror in Spud’s eyes.
