Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for February 12, 2023

That’s a better card than i thought you would give him, Zoe.

Everyone says “it’s the thought that counts”…but nobody really means it

Some girl sent my brother a Valentine card; she burned the card and put the ashes in the envelope.

I wonder what Hammie’s card to Zoe looks like.

How thoughtful and appropriate, Zoe! Ha ha!

“So far she’s nailed it.”

My younger daughter’s name is Elizabeth; her nickname is Buffy (her sister gave it to her). She went through a phase where she didn’t want to go by a nickname in 1st grade. Valentine’s day came up. I got her cards to give to her class & she filled them all out, writing “Elizabeth” on each one. Less than half-way through, she said, “Mom…I want to go by Buffy again.”

I’ll be fixing my Valentine a good meal and a dessert.

Would Hammie expect anything different from from Zoe. Her insults and ridicule of him is ever present.

Barfing toad on Valentine’s Day? Really?! Why do comic strip boys have to act like they’re not from this world… or this galaxy for that matter?!

Both show love – just in different ways.

Hammie’s reaction? “Awesome!”

Hammie, the family victim of near-constant bullying, may at some point exact revenge of the type that makes the news.

ba dum tss

Zoe’s really getting creative. I thought it would just say “Happy Valentine’s Day, Booger Brain!”.

Ah the “love” between a brother an a sister. Is the anything more beautiful? Is there anything more precious? Is there anything more deadly?

Hilarious! I’ve encountered tinkling toads.

Definitely fits the person so it would seem…..

You’re weird but you are still her Valentine, that’s what sisters are for…

I mean, Hammie might be flattered.

“You’re weird” is an EXCELLENT, Zoe!

feeling scentimental?

A barfing toad? What would that look like?

Next panel: Hammie says, “Cool!”

Haha! XD
