Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for May 15, 2020

Ernesto’s reached his breaking point. He’s weirded himself out and we may not seen his like again!

Every time Mrs. Derkins asks her daughter Susie how was Susie’s school day, Susie always says, “fine” and then changes the subject.

That’s right, Petey! Tell the truth to some one who will be fascinated, like Alice!

Very wise.

You’ll be a fine husband some day, Petey.

Really, who among us isn’t ‘a broken man’?

So if Ernesto is a figment of Peter’s imagination…which one is truly mad?

I cannot believe a dishevelled Ernesto.

Im think the Ernesto strips are my favorite.

I’m seeing a new Indiana Jones movie in the works here.

Finally! An accurate depiction of today’s youth…

Ernesto, imaginary or not, descends into E.A. Poe-style madness, channeling Peter Lorre all along the primrose path.

Petey the Prudent, my hero!
