Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for August 11, 2021

“And what shrunk you to the same height as your four-year-old sister? Wizard or something? Man I hate those.”

Kermit he aint !

Let us travel to a better time while these two settle their differences.

Hey, the animals talked to young Judy back in the day.

Guess she never heard of Kermit or Robin. Come to think of it, the Muppets’ take on The Frog Prince is now 50 years old.

ok now I remember why I hated Boog story lines. The stupid talking with animals crude. Its still 1000 times better than seeing Rufus and Joel though.

Aubee, please remember that you’re in the Cartoon World! ANYTHING can (& usually does) happen!

That’s one big frog!

Hey,kids.If the frog starts singing “MICHIGAN RAG”,run for the hills!

Frank King would strangle Scancarelli for this stupid stuff. What a sad fall for what was one of the finest comic strips ever created. Yeah, yeah, I know… don’t read. But I call them like I see them and on this strip…. well, there you have it. It ought to be put out of its misery.

Ger-goom? Well, if those two can be named Mucous and Well I’ll Be, apparently all sorts of linguistic license is considered to be fair game, then. By the way, interesting that Well I’ll Be looks like she’s well into her 70s, although she was born just a few years ago.

♫ If I could walk with the animals, talk with the animals

Grunt and squeak and squawk with the animals…

Well, things have certainly taken an intellectual turn since Rufus and Joel moseyed on their way. Now we’ve got a couple of little kids and a talking frog. Caveat emptor.
