Fred Basset by Alex Graham for January 15, 2024

That makes you an accessory after the fact Fred, better be careful!

Faithful to the end, Fred, even if it’s fraudulent claims to the coppers. You’ll be let off with a warning this time, but watch it!

Mr. Dear was actually driving at 80 kilometers per hour. This strip must have been done for the American audience..

Maybe he’ll give you a special treat later for saving his behind.

Good Boy, Fred…….Good Boy!!!

A special stop at the butcher’s for sausages coming up before they get home.

Mr. Dear should stop at the butcher shop for Fred. He saved him from a mighty big ticket and court.

Fred when did you go to Acting School ?

Mr Dear is looking positively evil in the last panel

Fred is a helpless co-conspiritor!

Teamwork! Well done Fred. The look on Mr Dear’s face is positively diabolical

Only in England. The rest of Europe is on kilometers.

That’s a new one for me

Well, that’s one way to beat a ticket.

I’m glad Mr. Graham’s depictions of Mr. Dear improved over the years. The early drawings were not very flattering to Mr. Dear.

Hey Mister! Could you at least tell Fred he was a good boy for bailing you out?

Now I will forever have to question Mr. Dear’s integrity.

That look on Mr. Dear’s face is always suspect…

Of course, that’s why Fred’s mans best friend, especially the man that feeds him…

More proof that dogs are man’s best friend. Fred better get some extra snackies.

Fred you deserve extra treats also Mr Dear look angry all the time

Fred helps him out but Mr Dear is still mean to him. :-(
