Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for June 30, 2014
Transcript:
Petey: I'm going to spend the summer reinvestigating and, I hope, finishing my TOAD ZOMBIES graphic novel! Petey: I'd left off at Chapter 96- The Adventure Begins because after 95 chapters of exposition I couldn't figure out how to launch the action. But now I have! Beni: What did he say? Alice: I don't know. I always get distracted by Petey's scalp jumping up and down when he talks.

My dad used to put is glasses on top of his head and wiggle his scalp until his glasses dropped back onto his nose. (He used the same muscles he used to raise his eyebrows, but worked them backwards, somehow.)

Petey’s literary concerns are not as interesting as truck collisions to Beni and Alice!

Are you sure 95 chapters are enough exposition, Basil?
