Monty by Jim Meddick for October 21, 2024

I don’t get it

Hare or hair. Not much it would seem.

If Sedgwick and a lycanthrope found themselves face to face, which would run first?

“Werewolf”….

You can use that in other areas of life. Like when a player on your favorite team is about to do something really stupid. [Crowd groans] “Ah, look at the pretty bunny.”

You better stay away from him, he’ll rip your lungs out Jim

Good thing he doesn’t share Anya Jenkins’ fears. (obligatory ‘Buffy’ reference)

I feel “Monty” is a strip where it’s OK to be a little bit pedantic. Feel free to skip this if that’s not what you want. So, the guy is always a lycanthrope. It’s a permanent condition. It’s just that sometimes he looks like a man, sometimes he looks like a wolf.

What’s the point of watching a horror movie if you don’t like to see the scary scenes?

… I don’t understand why this kid is constantly in this strip? Is Jim just out of ideas with Monty? Get rid of the brat!

Mr. Bailey’s uncle has lost all of the savings and loans’ money.

Sounds like the movie is The Wolfman with Lon Chaney. (I assume the Sedgewicks would only watch the classics.)

I don’t like to watch horror films because I do not need those kind of images in my dreams. Who programs their brain with gore deliberately?

so, I had to google Lycanthrope because me is no edgumumicated like Jarvis

I wonder ifJarvis is enjoying the movie.

His “hare” was perfect. Ah hooo. W. Zevon.

When the old (but still beloved) comic strip Pogo was still around, the cartoonist Walt Kelly made sweet “bunny strips” available for editors who didn’t want to run strips they thought readers might find politically offensive.
