Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 04, 2012

Such wonderful acting and painting of ideas totally wasted on Miss Bliss.

Adults just don’t get it.

Well stated!

Excellent!!!

The true artist is always misunderstood, Alice! Keep the faith!

Welcome back, Richard.

There’s no place for that here, Alice. Now go take your nap.

And yet another dime.

Is Thompson back or is this just the Sunday schedule? We’ll know Monday.

I’m reminded of Calvin’s explanations of some of his art. I miss that strip; I’m glad this one is around.

I think it’s too soon. This is a rerun of an older Thompson strip.

Alice in Aliceland.

I think someone’s tired.

I like baby carrots.

Good one jpwood!

Since the students are becoming smarter than the teacher, Miss Bliss is probably thinking of retirement about now!

I agree that Richard is probably not returned yet, but we all have hope. I’m just glad he has friends to fill in. Most adults are too controlled to understand such artistic rage;-P

Very tactful Miss Bliss!

The Sunday strips have been Richard’s. He may have done a few ahead before he had to have his treatments. Get well soon, Richard!

Brilliant work by Corey Pandolph last week. I’m only disappointed he couldn’t have worked in a talking dog or a robot.

I can see Miss Bliss’s eye from behind the glasses. Well done!

Miss Bliss is well named.

I don’t care for certain child-centered strips because the children couldn’t possibly say the things they’re portrayed as saying. However, a real “Alice” couldn’t possibly have said what Cartoon Alice did in this strip, and it’s still hilarious. Maybe it’s the edginess.

First Calvin, then Alice. What’s with all these comic strips kids using big words I wouldn’t have even known how to say at their ages?

Wow… I’m more impressed with her vocab (and the fact that she could remember and pronounce all those words) than the painting itself. LOL!!
