Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for October 31, 2024

Pretty sure it was cartoon magic courtesy of Mr. Johnson. Left Janis with a bowl of temptations. I apologize for another visit from Captain Obvious. Happy All Hallows Eve.

Six or seven chocolates and a glass of wine quench many a question

No?

On a personal note Arlo’s costume reminded me of a great local priest. He’s a little aged and a little stiff in the shoulders. The best he can do is don a white cassock that coincidentally comes with a red cincture around his collar. Again Happy All Hallows Eve.

Where are Draco-Arlo’s fangs?

I am. Will we ever find out? I hate cavehanger endings.

I know I am.

I’m surprised Janis isn’t thinking “If Arlo can do that, what other secrets does he have that he’s been keeping from me?”

Apparently not.

“No! And I’m sleeping with a Crucifix from now on!”

Judging by her eyes in the last panel, she dreamt it

Excellent strip, JJ!

Did Janis roll in a leaf pile?

“Why can’t he be this suave and magical in the bedroom?”

She’s still carrying a torch for George Hamilton in Love at First Bite. (1979)

cool! :D

Not really.

Candy wrappers-check; empty bowl-check; wine glass and vacant gaze-check; total lack of interest-check. No interest at all Arlo.

Thank you for the laugh. :-)

“Yup.”

Did anyone else hear a little “Poof!” when Arlo transformed?

Janis prefers to keep the mystery in her marriage.

After a couple more glasses of red wine, she might be interested.

Next to bat, Arlo.

Nope.

We’ve been married 30 years. Nothing you do surprises me anymore.

She doesn’t care…she’s got the goods.
