Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for May 12, 2018

Hopefully, Zeeba’s later visits will be bloodless!

Looks like a calvin and hobbes haircut

Hey guys! What’s the latest buzz?! …Oh…oh, no. Never mind.

too much of “a little off the top” for Zebra’s mane

He was cut from this strip. A hairy situation resulted. The Bar-ber was lowered.

Jimmy is play cards with Floyd at the barbers’ retirement home.

Zeeba got punked.

Who knew Billy the Rocker would be Idolized?

Small town. One barbershop. Two barbers. It’s your first time there. Which barber do you ask to cut your hair?

The barber cut out just the white hair to make him look younger?

Eddie Murphy would get some trim…which is more than I can say about comic strip authors.

Don’t mess with the doooo!

Looks like Zeeba neighba got butchered…..thank goodness it wasn’t by the Crocs.

Well, when you get a haircut, you’d better go back home \\ When you get a haircut, get a barber you have known \\ Since you were a little bitty boy sittin’ in a booster chair \\ ’Cause you might look like Larry, Moe or Curly if a stranger cuts your hair.

LOL! Poor, Zebra!

Alas, the impermanence of barbers. Hair today, gone tomorrow.

The difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is only 2 weeks.

Could be stress making his mane fall out.

Poor Zebra…

But maybe the stupid Crocs won’t recognize him now…

When my old, talented barber retired and closed his shop, I had little nearby choice but to go to one of those chain-shops where a constantly changing parade of unskilled “barbers” butcher your hair in five minutes or less.

But I’m at an age where it doesn’t matter all that much anymore….

I thought we were being set up for a bad pun, so I stopped reading after panel 2 and tried to figure out what it might be. Joke’s on me I guess.

Barbers are like lawyers. If your town has just one he goes broke, but if you have two then they both make a fortune.

Luckily for Zebra, the town barber wasn’t old Eldon. Of course, Eldon would’ve most likely passed away right about now.
