Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for January 10, 2025

Yep.

There’s popcorn. It’s a safe bet.

Sterling sounds better if you imagine the voice of Peter Lorre in the movie M.

Ssshhh he’s asleep.

Seagull has retreated to Winter Quarters! Spud, as the host, needs to ensure he has proper sustenance. The bowl of popcorn should do nicely as a starter.

Sterling catching snowflakes .. if they land :))

Seagull looks all snug like a bug in a rug.

Wallace is so supportive, as you’d expect. He was raised right (as he should have been given his parents).

Sterling is going to cause a ruckus, just wait.

For everyone who was wondering where Seagull was all week!!

No, Sterling the bird is absolutely not there.

Yes, and he’s under the blanket. LOL!!

Watching TV on such a small screen will make your eyes cross. It’s too late for Spud.

Okay, but… RomComs? Hm, I guess Spud is something of a romantic. And I love that magician-dentist matchup! Reminds me of the cartoon where the lady is turning down a proposal by saying, “Leonard, it would never work out! You’re a nerd, and I’m a wonk.”

Sterling seems to be the only one who notices Seagull — like some kind of Quantum Leap phenomenon.

Just in the off chance, it’s such a movie might exist, I tried to Google it. The closest I could come, was a romcom about a dentist and a penguin trainer.

Is Sterling the only one who acknowledges that the Seagull hangs out with them?

Yes, Sterling, Seagull is there with Spud. He enjoys a good rom-com.

Nothing like wasting time on a snowy day!!!

With Stirling there, I don’t blame Spud for not coming out.

Took me a bit to find him, I let the sun into the room for heat but it gets in my eyes too.

I can’t believe Sterling is doing something as kid-like as catching snowflakes with his tongue. Maybe there’s hope for him yet.

Now I’ve gone from being concerned about our missing resident seagull friend to being concerned about our missing resident seagull commenter friend :\

I like how Sterling is both the most aware yet the most dangerous kid in the strip…

THAT’S ominous.

Seagull is watching the rom-com with Spud!

Ah, so that’s where the seagull’s been for this arc.

Aha!

Of course Sterling is the only one who really talks about the bird.

I was totally in Spud’s game until “rom-com”…

Smart seagull snuggling with Spud in the game room!

Spud, don’t answer! Sterling does not have seagull’s best interests in mind!

Sterling is so fine. As a comic character. Wouldn’t want him around in real life…

Even Sterling noticed the seagull was gone

Is this the first time someone acknowledged Seagull?

smart bird!

Affirmative- The Bird has been spotted@Spud’s!!!

A magician and a dentist walk into a bar…

Kudos, Wil !

seagull is from the sea.
