Petey: I had to bring them out to the garage so I could stack them all up in chronological order. See? Alice: WHOAH. Petey: The history of mankind, depicted in 314 (so far) shoebox dioramas, from the caveman days to the coming Martian invasion, by Petey Otterloop Jr., dioramist. When I'm finished, I'll donate it to the Smithso - HEY! Alice, stop putting Tina Teeny-Weeny in the Peloponnesian Wars shoebox! If the Smithsonian sees it they'll think I'm insane! Alice: I think it's fun!

Then do your own diaramas, Alice.

Tina was a key player in the government of Sparta during that time … honest!

Wait, so Peter is a Jr. That means his dad is also named Peter. I wonder if he was as neurotic as a kid.

Wouldn’t Tina rather be fooling around with Leonidas?

Too late. If the Smithsonian sees this, you’re getting a straight jacket, buddy.

Budding professional dioramist Petey Otterloop, Jr., needs a label of disclaimer stating that he has a little sister who has Tina Teeny-Weeny. Everybody, even the professional museologists at the Smithsonian Institution, understands what it means to have a Little Sister!

Do the Otterloops have a second garage, to store 314 pairs of shoes?

This is a beautiful strip. Wonderful coloring also!

You don’t have to own the shoes to get the boxes, as almost everyone throws them out!

Wolfdreamer250: Not only is Dad Peter Sr. but he was also known as “Potterpoop” as a kid.
Oh yeah, and Mom’s real name is Madeline.

I predict something horrific is going to happen and Peter’s dioramas will all come crashing down and he’ll have to stack them all over again!

When I grow up, I want to be a dioramist!

Anyone notice how Tina looks like Alice?

Lame? No way! All they need to do is put Dill’s helmet on Tina and it’ll definitely be Smithsonian material!!

I just saw “Dinner for Schmucks” the other day, and I can only wonder how long it would take to stuff enough mice to fill 314 dioramas.
