Opal, if you’re wondering where I am, i’m crying in bed and eating pop tarts

Earl may not mask his feelings much longer.

So much for scaring Opal.

Does she ever say anything nice?

That’s Opal. She never misses a shot.

Almost asking for that one…

Some people put on a mask and look less scary.

They could have been drawn with “Opal masks” — then what would she say?

K, Opal; go ahead and take your mask off now…

Touche, Opal!

Don’t expect any sympathy for when Earl says something mean about you, Opal…

One of my favorite comments is, “Halloween’s over. Take off that ridiculous mask.”

Opal is scary enough all of the time.

That joke is so old, her grandmother used it on her grandfather

Opal NEVER says anything nice to Earl she is obviously teasing him.

Why does he put UP with that..?? ( the sex must be REALLY good )

Well Opal has her wicked witch impression down

ba dum tss

Opal, of course, doesn’t NEED a Halloween mask…

I like to wait till someone takes off their mask and THEN let out a blood curdling scream when I see the maskless face!

Bwahahaha!

More women would be less scary looking not wearing make-up (the art of deception). Their skin would be less wrinkly and would look more attractive. Just like when a smoker stops smoking, their skin goes through the same beautiful transformation.

OH…BURN!

She is just being spooky ole Opal. Happy Halloween everyone. Hahaha!

Rerun from four years ago. But she was wearing a sweater then. Global Warming this year means she’s comfortable without one.

Good one! Oprah wins!

What a brave woman!!

Why did I know at the start that she was gonna say something like that?? (been following this strip for a looong time!)

Does Perry Mason still do annulments?

I remember in the movie “Mask” when the camp counselor told the main character to take his mask off and the kid acted like he was trying to pull his face off.

Good one, Opal.

That burn is going to last awhile

She’s a woman.
