    I keep forgetting. Mother’s Day was this past Sunday where I live. Europe has different customs.

    The money was always good when she played the bishop’s palace, but Mary did not look forward to starting her pole dance in a full habit.

    Nope. Even in the Disneyverse his revenge for her death was one more giant step Anakin took to becoming Vader.

    At the “Death Star Assisted Living Facility” dining room, Ma Vader’s clumsy spoon-handling demanded that the attendant always tucked her napkin into her collar…

    Receiving the medal for mother of the year still did not please Mother Vader.

    Agatha sat away in her corner, to all observers completely placid and without bother. Little did they know she was wearing headphones under her habit and listening to death metal.

    all have info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. So far, 4 works by him have been used here. 

    http://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2014/03/21?comments=visible 

    has the prior, which sadly, though my comment text is there with the line breaks removed, its 14 hyperlinks remain inactive and the embedded image no longer shows. &?@#!#%&!

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s A PRICELESS MOTHER’S DAY CLASSIC (May 10, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment. This was the MASTERPIECE #554 May 7, 2011, entry (predates the strip at GC; hasn’t run here before).
