Red and Rover by Brian Basset for December 18, 2022

Good point, Red. But real men aren’t afraid to take risks for fun. So grow up to be a real man.

“ That doesn’t give you cause for concern “. Tremendous! LOL. Does that come before or after, “ hold my beer”?

Coconuts, Red, coconuts.

Today’s Red and Rover is a lot like a Calvin and Hobbes strip. “Dead Man’s Slope” is the sort of name that Calvin uses. These names certainly don’t reassure Hobbes.

Today’s Calvin and Hobbes reprint has a sledging and crashing theme.

Cowabunga, boys!

Halfway down, they meet Calvin and Hobbs.

Love this !!!

The trick is to find the balance between experiencing boyish adventures – while ensuring you live long enough to become a man.

AAAAAH the least you know, the more fun you have, and a lower center of gravity helps. Yip yip yip yip yip

O. M. G ‼️

Yeah.. Calvin is waiting in the half-frozen pond at the bottom of the hill…

Good thinking Red

Wonder if tomorrow’s strip will show what condition they are in at the bottom of the “slope”!

Dead Man’s Slope turns into Living Boy’s Hope.

“Wheee! Oh isn’t that Sonny Bono?”

(What, too soon?)

Love the way Red put his arms under Rover’s front legs to steer the sled. Hang onto that precious boy, Red!!
