Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for January 24, 2012

If I could have anything back by popular demand it would be a 69 camaro z28. I hate the new styling.

Is this going where Daffy Duck went when Bugs Bunny was at the drawing board. That was great. Such a rascal that Bugs.

Does this mean Pastis is turning into Hammy from Over the Hedge?

So Rat really did kill Pastis!!! wow… will he go to jail now?

Well, that explains Bob the croc continually getting killed…..

Spilled coffee beer trope! Cartoon-Pastis should be beheaded for giving away secrets of the trade! …Oh. Wait….

Yeah - I prefer the 67 Mustang. . ..

Mr. Pastis…you’ve destroyed my illusions!

So that means Pastis really could have his head up…

Oh. Oh Dear!

I’m gonna get hated for this:

Am I the only one thinking this is a thinly veiled god ruling the world joke?

I don’t know which is more disturbing, today’s strip, or the fact that I find it funny.

woah!

" POP ?"

Lots of relevance in the circus. (Thanks to Chico Marx)

Hmmmm, back from the dead? I was happy yesterday.

You can hurt a cartoon character if you have dip. Just ask Roger Rabbit.

Too meta. What’s next, inside jokes only long-time readers get?

Oh, wait, that’s what most comic strips are to begin with.

A 69 z28? Well yeah ,u&me and everybody,,but a 67stang needs to be a Shelby,,

Since removing limbs is termed dismembering, perhaps Pastis is hoping we’ll all re-member him?

Marcus: GAH! MY EYES! THEY BURRRRN!

Chibi-Robo: …

How about my ’69 AMC Javelin, 360cc. My friends and I took it apart put it back together put sunroofs and a 4 barrel carb. Not as easy or fun to do these days.

Good

AAAUUGGHHH!! UNDEAD PASTIS!!

This is actually good. When tax time comes, and Stephan owes an arm and a leg. . . .

What specific spot does Rat intend to kick you with using your own leg?

ROTFL!

Yes, John M, you are the only one thinking that.

This Kind Of Reminds Me Of Those Creatures From The Labyrinth That Take Their Head Off For Fun

I bet the killer whale can come back too!

So Stephan discovered the secret of cartoon eternal life . . . but you’d better not tell the crocs!!!

Pastis in Wackyland.

I made a post, but it apparently wasn’t “passed” by GoComics, so I’ll try it another way:

Today’s comic reminds me of this 1983 headline.Where were you in ’83, Stephan?

71, are you sure of your dates? Anyway I’ll take what you have over my minivan and taurus

You caught your typo. anyway your right about performance, I was talking more about appearance and style.

John M. Yes. Yes you are.

XD [P.S. I had a ’65 Tempest that I absolutely adored. Even if it was going to break down, it made sure I was safe (or SOMEONE made sure I was safe!) Kept that car for many years—rusted out floor, leaky roof and all.]

I’m glad to see Stephan getting a leg up on rat today. But he may have to draw the line somewhere.

IN YOUR FACE, RAT!!!

Thank you Stephan, my detachable legs thank you as well!!!

Two can play that game! Show him your brain, Rat. Ohhhhhhhh.

that is VERY disturbing
