Nice to know he’s had the same clothes his entire life!

HEE! HEE! YUK! HEH!

My thoughts exactly.

With online funnies, I have to use Photoshop to do that.

I remember Silly Putty! It was 88 cents! Fun!

I remember doing this at my grandparents’ when I was this young. That was longer ago than I care to admit

We did that with silly putty when we were kids…a long time ago. lol

I remember doing this. I also remember a Sunday-morning TV show where a middle-aged gentleman who thought he was a good narrator reading (and trying to show, but there was only a single camera, so it got tricky) the Sunday comics section of the paper to us for half an hour. But I usually had read the comics by the time the show came on, so it wasn’t all that entertaining at the time.

You can still smell that Silly Putty scent, from when you first open the egg, can’t you?

I cannot believe nobody here has yet mentioned who the character is ON the putty. It’s DILL from the late lamented Cul De Sac by Richard Thompson. Nice homage!

simple pleasures for simple minds.

It’s called Silly Putty and yes it does that. But why the scowl on his face in the first panel?

DILL!!

I remember doing that! After a while, though, the Silly Putty got so dark with so much ink it wouldn’t work any more.

Still available on a certain gigantic online location for $10.00 for six eggs. It won’t be long and there won’t be any funnies to use it on.

I did this quite a bit when ai was younger.

LOL – love it. I remember when you could do that with comics.

Does Silly Putty have any other uses besides this one?

Ah, the good old days

Thanks for the memories. Strangely, it doesn’t seem to work on these comics. ;)

Oh, now that brings back memories!
