The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for July 03, 2021

The female always wins.

Hector was just another CRUNCH head(less) in the BUUUURP crowd.

He hasn’t lost his head over a female…….yet.

Those two look like celery sticks

Wrong on so many levels

That’s a pretty high price to pay just to procreate.

Wait a cotton pickin’ minute. How did the middle guy know about the other guy. What guy. The guy with the power of Hoo Doo. Who do? You do. Do what? Remind me of a guy.

The name of the bar they’re in, is certainly appropriate.

He did it all for the noggin…

Okay, I got to address the elephant in the room: How do those to expect to drink?

Tell the guy on the left to “Quit while he’s ahead” or still has one!

The 2 on the right are jealous!

This shows why they are in the “condition” they are in – they weren’t thinking with their heads.

The Mantis Zombie Club! Enter at your own risk…

Like peas in a pod?

praying man tavern sounds like pretty much any bar in creation…

He’s a lifelong bachelor.

If a Mantis gets divorced, does he get to keep his head? (and just lose everything else?)

Maybe the Mantis on the left is gay.

Reminds me of the termite that walks onto a bar and asks “is the bartender?”

I thought only worms could do that!

Maybe he’s homosectual?

I don’t think that he’s got a prayer.

Maybe he’s going to a seminary.

Unlike many divorced men, he hasn’t let the small head do the thinking for the big head over an extreme-jealous female.

What exactly, does a headless Mantis, DO with a drink ?

So which one of the species does the praying? The female hoping for a desperate mate or the male hoping that “a relationship” won’t cost him his head?

The bachelor not only gets to keep his head, he gets all three of those drinks. After all, the others can’t use them.

Funny strip.

Zorak: “I ache with power….I am….ZAP…BAT-MANTIS!”

You can always find the prying mantis virgin male.

That’s funny!

“I’m not going home with her again.”
