Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for November 17, 2024

“Fly, Taka! On, Scout!”

“Hi-yo, Silver! Away!”

Now go play with Phoebe and her unicorn.

Well, if he’d kept his nose up it might have worked.

Did Darryl get that traffic cone from ….. Andy Capp??!!

;-)

(With apologies to Grandpa McCoy) After this he’s going to have a iccup in his iddyup.

I wonder what Zoe would have come up with if Wren had wanted to ride a Triceratops.

Continuation of this weeks object? httPs://www.gocomics.cOm/andycapp/2024/11/15

More like the old dunce cap than a horn, so having the advantage of adding insult.

A witch’s hat left over from Halloween?!

I think Darryl’s nose might substitute for a horn, what a honker!

Older sibling serving as “baby translator”-that brings back the memories.

Shel Silverstein wrote a song about Darryl.

Does this mean he wears the Cone of Shame?

Why not a party hat. It looks better and probably feels better too.

Now she is saying “Giddy Up” in case you need a translation on this as well.

Darryl can’t see with the trafic cone on his head. One of Hammie’s suction-cup arrows stuck to his forehead would have been better.

Now stick a maxi pad with wings on his nose and he can be a pegasus

I was a year older than my sister Kathy. Our mother was concerned that she might never speak in recognizable words. The pediatrician told her: “Why should she bother? Maureen does all Kathy’s talking for her.”

Looks more like a conehead to me.

Actually, with his proboscis, he just has a weird shaped horn a little lower on his head. It should suffice…..

When I was a kid my favorite animal was the elephant, whereas all the girls I knew swooned over unicorns. I used to write stories about elephants stomping on unicorns…..

Good job Darryl.

last panel, is she saying ‘giddy-up !’ of ‘idi-ot !’ ?

With the size of his nose, the cone is redundant!

Much better than nailing a horn on.

(NEVER again!!)

Kid speech ain’t easily understood even harder to reply…..

If I gained any more weight, I could be a narwhal.

Caution… father at work!

That nose is a unicorn horn all by itself

I would love to see Darryl explaining things to the road crew….

Really funny, guys. Thanks!

Thank goodness Zoe was the first one there! If it had been Wanda or Hammie they would’ve been as confused as Daryl, but since Zoe’s a little girl too, she understood what Wren was saying.
