Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 03, 2016
Transcript:
Alice: Is that the sad pull toy that Santa brought you? Dill: Yes. It's been acting strangely, so I'm taking it for a walk in the fresh air to see if that helps. Dill: It's been making a high pitched whine, and sometimes spits out sparks like it might explode. Dill: It wanders around the house at night and leaves puddles of green goo in the closets. My other toys don't do that. Dill: So I figure it's an alien toy from mars that was delivered to Earth by mistake. Dill: I just hope there's not an Earth jack in the box on Mars running amok destroying the planet. Alice: Martian kids must be so weird. Toy: EENK
This time, Richard’s blog entry covers the last 14 strips. This was the first appearance of Dill’s toy (in this strip) in the rerun.Looking ahead, the strip blog entries become less frequent, at least in the near future.For example, there are only two more in April, for the next two Sunday strips (provided the rerun doesn’t change the order as it has in the past), with none for the weekly strips. May also only has three strip related entries; two for a couple weekly strips, mainly because they weren’t accessible on GoComics for technical reasons at the time.The other blog entry in May, instead of being for a May strip, is for one that ran November 12, 2012 in the rerun, which, if you recall, was the one Richard chose for the final strip.
