    Wait a second. You mean that they’re scabbing humans in costumes instead of hiring genuine Toons? The Union will hear about this. Call Eddy Valiant!

    Wow, I didn’t know Pig was capable of that stuff. I guess he has a pretty good actor playing him.

    Ah ha! The tables are turned on Pastis! (Can Cathy be next?) This reminds me of the Sergio Aragones gag, where the actor in the Goofy costume accidentally wanders onto the sound stage of an adult film! (And for those who have not… go read “Who Censored Roger Rabbit”… the book which inspired the film, but MUCH different!)

    I’ve never seen Pig swear like that before, Rat always, but not Pig.

    As related in the first Pearls treasury “Sgt. Piggy’s Lonely Hearts Club Comic”, Pastis and Tatulli have been friends for years, since Tatulli only had “Heart of the City” syndicated. Anyone else remember “Tatulli the self-esteem building Bear”?

    Who knew that was how comic strips were made?

    Crossover cartoons are a hoot! I remember Rat eulogizing Dilbert. “thousands of new cartoon spots opening up-ka-ching,ka-ching.”

    One of the commenters over at PBS on “Brand X” mentioned this; and though I rarely read Lio I find this delightful!

    Pig needs to fire his stand-in.
