Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 11, 2022

Not #74! That’s the one where he sits on his bed and does that non-thing thing!

horrible

Is there a behavioral disorder this kid don’t have?

Poor kid. Didn’t he ever have therapy? I know this is a comic and I like it but, one should trivialize Petey’s problem.

Don’t worry about it Madelyn, another backpack explosion will sort it……..

sort of like how “The Complete Cul De Sac” is missing some of it’s pre-syndication comics…

When Petey reaches the rip old age of 50, and in need of money, he retitles the “Little Neuro Comics Omnibus” , selling it under the title: “The Neuronomicon” and makes millions!

And here I thought an omnibus was a bus. Apparently it used to be.

You can’t accuse the Little Neuro people of misleading the public or mislabeling the book.

A mother would use the phrase “Anally retentive” to a child?

Better than being anally expressive I guess.

That is the page with the rewards for the junior sales kit. Petey would never do door to door sales or ride in the genuine submarine.

If he was doing simple addition(2+4) worksheets last year does that mean he is only in 2nd grade this year?

What’s wrong with this strip? The artist is different and not as funny for the past week or two.

It takes a lot for someone like Petey to survive this wild world. It is be to be prepared at all times, Mom.

I love Petey’s facial expression in the last panel, like an extra in one of George Romero’s cult classics.

My Hero, Petey? Anally retentive? Hmm. A girl described me that way, once long ago….

Heavy, heavy hangs over thy shoulder and on thy back!
