Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for December 16, 2023

SNICKER

That … is adorable!

That looks like fun!

Looks like Dad finally talked Mom out of the sequoia. Whew.

Send Sterling through.

Wallace bagged it, and it’s a total net benefit.

Send Sterling AND Wallace!! Two for the price of ONE!!

In fact, send all the kids – open ’em up Christmas Day!!

As long as they don’t use the shaker first, that would be so cool!

Seagull is skeptical..

Dudes probably waited years to be asked to do it.

Wallace, the Brave.

Looks like Seagull wants to go through, too.

After the first one went through, there would be a line, including adults. Then they’d start charging!! Sounds like a business plan.

If they’ll send Wallace through on the house, they’d probably pay dad to send Sterling through.

Details: they’re standing in fir needles….

Good to see that Mom and Dad got reasonable about the humongous tree.

One time my brother picked me up and sent me through. Then he carried me around like a Christmas tree!

cps????

The gift that keeps on giving. Looks like there was a meeting of the minds regarding the choice of trees………

Let he who has never stuck his head into one of those mesh bags oranges come in cast the first stone.

I always thought the top of the tree would go in first, but now that I think of it, the branches fold UP, so it would be bottom first.

Should be a nice relaxing ride home.

I love the hopeful expression on Wallace’s face in the second panel. And Mr. McClellan’s dubious look in the first panel.

Bag ’im!

Apparently, this isn’t the first time they’ve had this request .

Love!!

Former Christmas-tree-selling Boy Scout here. Back in the day, we may have sent a fellow scout or two through the vexar machine.

What a great family.

So Dad didn’t cut down the giant tree?
