Sherman's Lagoon by Jim Toomey for February 17, 2023

I assume we’re going to see a genie soon, but what’s the French fry doing next to the lamp?

Figured Hawthorne would have eaten the French Fry first. Then check out the lamp.

But it shouldn’t be crab proof!

So that’s how you kill off a main character!

Hawthorne with a Jin? It’s the end of the world as we know it.

There are a lot of us who share Hawthorn’s frustration with childproof caps. Some are adult proof, too. Grrrr…

Just rub its side gently, Hawthorne.

The strip already has Kahuna. We need a genie, too?

How does Hawthorne not know a magic lamp when he sees one?

You’re just not worthy

There is no such thing as a “childproof cap.” Those are “adultproof,” as anyone of sufficient age can attest.

Whatever the Genie looks like, I’ll either imagine it talking as Robin Williams or Barbara Eden. ;)

Haha! XD
