Once again, a little over 10 years ago, Richard posted a blog entry regarding this strip:

And about the time her Mom gets the costume finished…oops, changed her mind.

Go with your gut feeling….

Multiple treks to the craft store for Madelane? Think Fairy Princess, Agnes!

PANGO!

PANGO!

PANGO!

     (lin?)

Sounds like a Batman moment!

I am Pangolin!

instead of the origin story of batman, this sounds like the origin story of Covid. Cut to next month and we see Alice biting some guy in Wuhan.

A Princess Pirate Pangolin?

Nice tribute to Bob Kane’s Batman origin! I love it!

Bad choice Alice. Pangolins took some of the blame for COVID.

The blame makes them evern more appealing.

Josh Sundquist — above-knee amputee, skier, soccer player, author, comedian, motivational speaker, YouTuber — came up with amazing Halloween costumes than Alice: gingerbread man, lamp from A Christmas Story_ Dairy Queen Blizzard, IHOP sign, Trigger, Aladdin’s genie, foosball man…

I’m going as a sweet transvestite from Transylvania. Uh huh.

Forget it. You want to be original, right? There will be so many other kids going as pangolins…

Has anyone seen South Park Pandemic special? A pangolin plays an important part… be warned it’s raunchy, adult themes everywhere, offensive and edgy… prime South Park.

I wouldn’t call them a charismatic species.

And Polyfil is left in the dust. Hiya Happyx3! :)

Of Course! Nothing screams adorable like a long-tongued armor-plated mammal…

Poor pangolins get a bad rap in the "rona story. It wasn’t their fault that the virus got spread among humans.

Anyway, Alice’s latest fixation will be a challenge for Madeline, who has to fabricate the costume to Alice’s vision….
