Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for June 20, 2023

Seagull isn’t about to mess with Mom, either!

Momma has to deal with the Feral One, she developed mad skills!

Mom powers. Make her angry enough, and she can generate enough energy to run two full city blocks for an hour.

Never upset a former mermaid!

No, Spud. Your other left!

Wonder what Spud was gonna say..?

Ah, the mom stare. It could take down Godzilla lol!

As a kid who seems to cherish nature, not throwing trash into the water would appear to be a no-brainer for Wallace. Never could make sense of this tradition.

I love the dragonfly(?) narrator!

Top 3 things in this strip:

3. Spud channeling his inner Snagglepuss.

2. Seagull’s expressions.

1. A talking butterfly.

Hm—Spud is disoriented. He’s going off audience left = stage right——seems to me . .

We saw those shoes yesterday. They NEED to go to the dump. Or be ground up for compost. They are not really shoes anymore.

Yeh, that would be stage right. Like exit right now.

She solved this problem back along by buying him floating shoes. What happened to that idea?

necessity, the Mom of invention

come on mom, I don’t think anyone can wear those things anyway!

The shoes looked in rough shape. I say, toss ’em!

Spud exits intact.

This reminds me of a quote about Margaret Thatcher from one journalist: “I want to be there when someone asks her if she’s ever had an extramarital affair. I’ve never seen anyone get turned to stone before.”

Lamesville, population Me? I love it! Move over Guy Fieri!

Wallace’s mom has totally had it with dealing with the complaints from the EPA.

Meh. She can play the part as much as she likes, but I know she’s already lost this war. ;)

Mom Rage lol. Overall Rating: 9/10

Do it Wallace. How bad could it be? Just wait until Sterling distracts her.

Seagull also exits; he doesn’t want to be roasted in some pit of despair.

Poor Spud didn’t deserve that. He is always polite to the senior McClellands, even if Mr. McClelland forgets his name.

Getting away to retort on another day….

Cue O Fortuna! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJC-_j3SnXk

Clever Spud.

May as well let Wallace throw his shoes into the bay. He’s a growing kid and they won’t fit him next September anyway.

All the world’s a stage and we are merely players.

I see her frustration in him loosing his shoes every summer.. especially since this is the first time she has actually been able to before he throws them in.

What’s the somewhat cigarette-shaped/sized thing in panel 3?
