Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for June 05, 2024

It’s Them!

Where’s James Arness when you need him?

The question is did he cause the ant to be that big just now so he had something to wrestle or was it from something he did at an earlier date?

Gonna need a bigger picnic basket.

Not THEM!!!!

It’s the Wiz vs. Huge Ants…. someone’s got to win.

Unless you intended to do that, you should’ve brought Henry.

Why an Ant? It could be an Uncle.

This just in: Gi-ants, one; Wizards, zero.

apparently NJ is about to be hit by 4 inch, yellow, flying (I kid you not) spiders

Your Be❤️ed Count ❤️s the 1954 movie “Them”…. Matt Dillon, Davy Crockett (the “crazy jet pilot”) and a look quick for Leonard Nimoy as the army desk clerk who hands a piece of paper to one of the principal actors.

Them!

And watch him run like a little girl

Welcome to Wiz’s world. He’s right to attack that ant with his wand. That giant wouldn’t be interested in their lunch, but their bodies might make a nice meal. Mrs. Wiz should stop with the sighs and start with the bug spray.

He’s gonna need a bigger wand.

Trying to impress…..don’t believe it is working!

Meanwhile, the raccoons are eye-balling the picnic basket

Wizard ………… did you pick up Ron’s wand by mistake …. ;)

RAID!

Wand needs a tune-up.

Just wait until you see the uncles.

A magnifying glass would have been much more effective.

Party crasher extraordinaire.

That ship has sailed, Wiz…

Now, that’s an ant!

And the heroine wears a fetching hat even when she’s running around in overall. They probably put her in heels too.

“YOU TALKIN’ TO ME!?”

He didn’t ANTicipate that!

“Them” shall not pass!

If that’s the ant, I can’t wait to see the uncle.

‘Empire of the Ants’ round two…

To be fair, that particular ant has a lot of potential for picnic ruination.
