Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 10, 2016
Transcript:
Marigold: What are you doing? Phoebe: I'm sick of winter. Christmas is over, and I don't want to wait months for the next good thing to happen. I'm seeing if the power of a child's wish is enough to make the first flower grow! *zap* Marigold: Spring is a state of mind. Phoebe: Promise me that thing isn't feeding off my brain.

Calvin prays to the Gods of Winter, as I recall, to extend it, and Phoebe tries to use her willpower to cut it short.
In this monumental battle, I have to say, Marigold is probably a lot more useful than Hobbes.
Wonder what it’d be like if they ever got together.

Could be worse. Could be a pea plant or a fir tree growing in your lung. Or a guava growing in your tooth.

I didn’t realize that this was a rerun. Most strips tend to change noticeably during the first years as the artist settles on a style, but I can’t tell this apart from new strips. At least this is the first time this strip is run since the newspaper syndication.

Just so long as it doesn’t start saying things like “In this world, it’s kill or be killed.”

What about winter sports? Marigold roller skates, but does she have ice skates?

At least Marigold got it right-better than Timulty did.

Or maybe it’s too cold, my ex brother in law was stationed in Great Falls, Montana and he use to tell us that it never snows in Great Falls because it’s too cold.
