Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for October 18, 2022

Sorry, Will, but goldenrod relies on creatures (bees and butterflies) for pollination. Ragweed, on the other hand, relies on the wind to do this, which is how all that pollen gets in the air and can cause hurricane strength sneezes.

Amelia, that doesn’t work on command. You’ll just have to smack Spud in the back of the head until his eyes pop out.

Poor Brian!

When I lived in Lewis County, Washington (1992-2012), my pollen allergies were horrible. Now that I live in Clark County, they’re not so bad.

Never had this problem.

Strange. I grew up near Rhode Island. Went to school with a kid named Brian Welsh. I always wondered what happened to him…

“Did he replace them with fangs?” snerk

Give him the gargoyle wings from the day, and he could be Toothless!!

Saw a picture of some guy who has had himself creaturefied and has 5" fangs on the bottom installed.

Fangs alot, pollen!

What happened to Seagull in the last panel?

Act like that kid Amelia!! Get some dentures and scare Spuddy Boy to death!!!!

What kind of a name is Spud?

i would love somesuggstions for my comics plz

Anybody telling a tall tale was supposed to start the story with a sneeze.

And thus the legend of Brian the Pollen begins….

Brian Welsh, weredandelion.

The teeth sneezed out is rather horrifying, lol

Amelia’s fact-checking the mythology.

There is a field of goldenrod around my house. It’s especially rife in places too swampy for trees. Many species, some with branching plumes over 5 feet tall. I think the narrow-leaved kind is what makes the cats so aromatic when they’ve been out on a summer day or evening.
