Ziggy by Tom Wilson & Tom II for April 19, 2010

OUCH!

I would be sure my great-grandfather and my granduncle never said that in a non-joking manner when they were pharmacists.

Yup, if you don’t have insurance.

You’ve got that right, Grog. Those meds can get awfully pricey.

a natural thing.

That’s why I tell my doctor “feel free to prescribe anything on the Wal-Mart $4 generic list” and he does. Otherwise I’d have to choose between meds and beer and you know how that’s gonna go.

Bow to the masses. Ziggy got pants! How long has this been going on?

Hmmm that’s odd …. my total cost is usually under $10 even for the most expensive name brand drugs.

LOSER SPAMMER FLAGGED!

Funny how all the bad publicity made the drug companies wake up. Wonder if it would work with banks?

Wonder if it would work with Ann Coulter?

Yea this time I’m not see any spammers to flag.

GoComics zaps the spammers without a trace. I think they should leave a little place-marker box that says “Spam R.I.P., about 1 hour ago.”

I have noticed over the years that Ziggy sometimes wears pants and shoes on Mondays. Seems to be a traditional kind of thing.

My doctor told me to try Mao★Mart…er…Wal★Mart because they had $4.00 prescriptions. They charged me $25.00.

I got one of those…copay is $800+.

Finally, Ziggy found someone who gave him useful advice.

@ mrdoody,

A couple of months ago the Pearls Before Swine strip had a character that campaigned for Ziggy to wear pants. Tom & Tom II played along and had a strip where their editor told Ziggy people were complaining about him going pantless. Then for a whole week he wore them, now it’s maybe once a week. I love it, it’s comradery between strip writers and Zig looks awesome in pants and shoes. :)

New drugs cost money to develop Old drugs are time proven You want a Lexus for the price of a Corvear Other people’s taxes should pay the difference. I suggest you drive slow around curves.

He’s been wearing pants off and on ever since Pearls Before Swine did an arc protesting Ziggy’s pants-less state.

Soooo sad for so many of us. Health care in America…BAH!!!!
