Cartoon-Boy has a big mouth, and that’s his downfall.
Don’t try to con the Judge, Cartoon-Boy! He always has the Final Word. In this case (ahem), the punishment fits the crime. Book tour or not, the dummy belongs behind bars and with a bonus sarcastic guard….

Use that one phone call to ask Jim Borgman to send a drawing ASAP to the judge.

Why would you need a drawing of a rat in Detroit?

Make room, Pastis. Jonathan Lemon will join you as cell mate for the pun in today’s “Rabbits Against Magicians” strip.

It took me a minute to realize that the guard’s comment in the last panel was a joke – and a very good one at that.

Doing elaborate puns should automatically be a Get Out of Jail Free card.

Stephan really does draw a pic of Rat on a wall in towns he visits.

Pastis won’t get good medical help in jail. If he gets apundicidis, he won’t get treated.

WCraft Premium Member 12 months ago
If he even considers doing a pun, tack on more time.
dlaemmerhirt999 12 months ago
He should just’ve drawed Jeremy to the best of his ability! (I like both comics, but Pearls is still THE best of ALL. I LOVE my stuffed animals!)
artjohn42 12 months ago
Some lessons are more expensive than others. Next time, just draw Jeremy. And key a drawing of Rat into the hood of the judge’s car.
Dapperdan61 Premium Member 12 months ago
Rabbits Against Magic have their own punintentiary. Pastis should be locked up there

Good advice for Trump 45** and his co-conspirators. Anything you say may be held against you in court.

Like Ron “Tater Salad” White, Pastis has the right—but not the ability—to remain silent.
