It’s a roc’s egg.

Good for Alice! Not at all taken in by the Humpty Dumpty sat on a chair nonsense.

Oh, Dill! You speak for so many of us. Learning so much in one day hurts my head! The Miss Blisses of the world need to give us a break!

A cracked egg.

You know, I just realized that one of the (many!) characters I’m especially going to miss is, umm … I don’t even remember her name … the girl at Petey’s summer comic drawing class whose hair accessories kept poinging off. I particularly loved her meta-drawings! How is it possible that we won’t see more of them in the future?? Something is not right.

No ordinary egg that is for sure.

I still say Humpty was pushed.
William Bednar Premium Member over 12 years ago
Yeah, Dill’s brain is begining to hurt. But we still don’t know if Humpty Dumpty was a good or bad egg!
Stephen Gilberg over 12 years ago
We learned last year that he’s a Golden Goose egg.

Anyone notice that Alice (or her clone) appeared at the birthday party in yesterday’s “Baby Blues” strip? Check it out.

The story actually never says he’s an egg at all.

Best class ever.

Of course, so is Peanuts, but those old b&w strips are now being colored. So I guess I really didn’t answer the question after all. :(

Add me to the newbies who, while we’d much rather Richard was well enough to do new strips, are happy we can catch up on the ones we missed.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don’t let the colorization monkeys ruin Cul de Sac! Let them go on typing Shakespeare; they’re better at that.

If it was in color, I think that Dill would be green today and walking about saying, "Brains……B.r.a.i.n.s……!!! Just look at him!
