Pickles by Brian Crane for January 05, 2025

I saw that coming.

…well, at least it’s not his teeth he’s brushing…

she could let her mustache grow out and they’d be twinsies

5th panel, Roscoe thinks it’s funny.

Earl finally has a winner. Don’t tell her for a while.

One thing is for sure: she never looked at the brush before she used it.

She never had any problem before, so why should she have looked?

My sister shaved her head once. It looked pretty good.

It’s a good thing Roscoe doesn’t have fleas. (Or does he???)

I kind of knew that was coming!

So it’s Roscoe who is going bald!

It had to be Opal’s, I doubt Earl has one!

It looked good on Siñead O’ Connor and any other beautiful woman with great bone structure.

Sorry Opal…

How does she even brush that tangle?

Earl you better not tell Opal, huge trouble.

She’d never think Earl would groom Roscoe so it’s the perfect crime!

Besides this being one of the funner “Pickles” in recent memory…Roscoe CONTINUES to REWL as the best character in the strip, by a Country Mile!!!

BAD DOG……. and by dog, I mean EARL.!!

She’ll never suspect a thing Earl, well not until the flea infestation take hold.

I need to try this on Patsy.

Mean.

That would probably be a good idea, Earl.

There’s that goofy Roscoe expression!

I’d ask, “Do they have six legs or eight?”

Yuck!

Hilarious!

She better hope Roscoe does not have fleas!

What else is Earl using with Roscoe from Opal … toothbrush?

LOL! I love this strip.

Any woman who can’t tell dog hair from her own hair needs to have her eyeglass prescription changed.

Keep the dog, but put Earl outside. Notice, he didn’t use his own brush—oh! That’s right! He doesn’t have a brush b/c he doesn’t need one.
