My mom was a schoolteacher .. I started reading at 4 years old, and was always way ahead of other kids my age (in reading level), throughout my school years.
Newspaper comic strips were among the first things I used to help me learn to read.
Dizzy seems to have bounced back pretty quickly from being shot ‘point blank’ (not to mention then falling from a cliff .. though, TBF, she did have Bob to land upon).
I’m right there with ya; I just often provide strip dates in these comments for the benefit of other readers who may not recall .. or haven’t read ’em yet! :-D
The last time we saw Sopapilla (June 23, 2021 in the GC archive), she remained in Grande Perigo after helping RJ escape from El Tornado .. and it was implied that she might find romance with the newly-arrived handsome “Dr. Goody.”
or even with Impossible Merryweather.
