Panel three: [Crickets Chirping]

No point to your comment. RJ’s settled back and Verne’s looking at him out of the corner of his eye. So?

George please explain the star to Hammy …

Pulled, more likely.

Now I know how that squirrel gets his name.

There was a tripping hazard in the sky………

I think Hammy’s right. Comets get pushed out of their orbits into another orbit.

Should have called it a shooting star.

More importantly, where is it going to land?

Or they could have Lucy explain it to Hammy. Her answer would be just down Hammy’s alley. LOL

Isn’t Hammy going to catch it?

Good thing George didn’t see that, he might be a little sensitive to things falling out of the sky.

Actually it’s probably no a falling or shooting star at all, it’s probably one of Space-X’s satellites.

Not a star it is a piece of space rock burning up.

Try shooting star.

Great strip, terrific art. Pogo returns just when we need him. Thanks. Pat Marrin

I thought they were called shooting stars, not falling.
