Agnes by Tony Cochran for September 02, 2023

first time i see someone seeking reasoning for dreading something o_O !

What is that in/next to the garbage?

A discarded spaceship?

I’ve seen homes fashioned from shipping containers, busses, railcars, or old boats. Why not a plane?

Uh Agnes, look in the trash—methinks you could become the next “Top Gun” if you can get it to fly. Or is that a submarine? In that case you’ll be The Amazing Aquagirl!

did they just walk by a ufo?

It’s no wonder Agnes finds so many “interesting” things in the garbage!

BTW, it looks like, in the last panel, the Cartoonist scratched out a Voice-Bubble arrow pointing to Trout and drew one in going off to where Agnes is, off-panel…

Someone was innovative and converted an old rocket into living space from the looks of it. Also, Trout has figured out the reason Agnes dreads school.

When I lived in SF, they had an old plane on a playground and the kids used it as sort of a jungle gym. Eventually it broke apart and had to be removed

SNAP !!

Trout is a Grade AAA bee-yotch!!

As usual, Trout cuts through all the B.S. generated by the wild-eyed fabulist she befriends, and also, as usual, the head-in-the-clouds friend accepts her criticisms calmly.

I truly wish that I’d had such a companion as I was growing up (either one, though preferably, both)

They must be really late for school if they’re ignoring that spaceship!!!!! What a find! :)

She should take the spaceship home. Probably worth a fortune….

Can’t believe Agnes passed up a space ship when she takes everything else behind stores. Imagine what she could do with it.
