    Cool drawings (both Alice’s and the strip). But… who is Jante (or Jaute) and why is he substituting for Richard Thompson? I’m all for occasional guest cartoonists drawing for their pals, but I just hope that RT is OK!

    A quick Google search answered my question. RT is indeed undergoing a medical treatment. Michael Jantze and other great cartoonists are substituting for him. I look forward to see their takes on Cul de Sac but I wish it was under different circumstances. (And yes, I would have known all this if I had read the comments for the past few days. I apologize.) Get well Richard! We will await your return eagerly!

    I hope that all goes well for Richard. He is very brave to keep on the way he does. Parkinson’s is not easy to live with.

    That looks more like Dill than Petey, Alice.

    Is that Big Shirley in Alice’s drawing?

    Oh, Petey, logic has nothing to do with it! It’s Little Sister stuff!

    Welcome, Michael Jantze! Best wishes for successful treatment, Richard!

    I love the disaffected expression in that picture on “Petey’s” shirt.

    I wonder if RT is in contact with Michael J. Fox and how he controls the tremors while drawing.

    Get well, Richard! Looking to see you back with new strips as soon as you can! In the meantime, we’ll get by with guest artists and reruns. We’re rooting for you!

    I’m looking forward to the guest artists – this should be fun! Thanks to all of you in advance. And anything that helps Richard Thompson get better is worth the time and effort, as these artists obviously know.
