I think Roy and I would have gotten along quite well as 13 year old kids. He could have worked on the teletype machine that we connected with a 300 baud acoustic coupler modem to the University main frame once a week to run our BASIC programs.
Roy probably would have had a lot of trouble fitting in at my school when I was 13, even though there were well over 400 other 8th graders that year. It was 1961, and being a brainy nerd was definitely not cool yet. (I speak from experience.)

Are you able to fix typos like that in future collections or reruns of the strip?

Oof…. How about “Whoa, Roy- I don’t- NONE of us want to witness that.” (Just postulating an easy fix to the speech…)

Awwww. It can’t be that bad. I’m sure as we get older we would love to become teenagers again, or some younger age with less bills.
