Can this get any worse? Of course! The PBM is yet to face—Count Drekula! “He bites, he sucks, he blows! He’s the perfect Batiuk character!” What about—The Woolman! “The most sheepish villain ever! Don’t let him pull his wool over your eyes, or you’ll spend $3.99 on the premiere ish of his adventures!” And what of the very worst character—The Mommy! “Quit lying on the floor, you geriatric jerk! Clean up your bedroom or I won’t make you any more hot cocoa!”
Okay, don’t whine that today’s strip lies on its side like a limp and dying jellyfish. Turn it so the ape is on top. Now imagine that he has dysentery and think of what that means for the panel beneath him.
Is he supposed to be Outcault’s Yellow Kid?
