Robin says, "I guess I'm just not used to things around here yet!" Robin says, "My husband and I just moved in a few days ago!" Janis says, "Yes, I know!" Janis says, "I walk by here almost every day!" Robin says, "Yes, I know!" Robin says, "I've been hoping to run into you!"

And Janis seems amused by her apt statement. Now tell her to cut back that bush, or is it the corner of a hedge? Looks like it needs trimmed anyway.

Maybe we thought they looked alike at first cos that’s simply the way Jimmy draws women.
We just haven’t seen very many in this strip to compare.

Welcome to the hood, Robin! Looking forward to meeting her husband. Jimmy says he’s not sure if they’ll stay as permanent characters or not. I hope so… having nearby friends can help open up a lot of story possibilities. Heck, on the Dick Van Dyke Show, they even came right out and called them the Helpers.

Jimmy should have Robin come out of a beauty salon, and have Janice say, “Didn’t your hair used to be brown?” Robin replies, “Those colorists never get it right.” I wonder what wild color they will make it then.

I’m wondering if the speech bubble in the last panel was supposed to point to both of them, and not just Robin. That would explain why Janis appears to be talking too.

Y’know, this is the first bunch I’ve ever known to psychoanalyze a comic strip. I love it!
