Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for September 26, 2023

Bear and Jones are throwin’ t’gether to wreak mayhem on them agency folks. Sorta reminds me of Snuffy Smith shootin’ it out with the revenoors.

Have Bear hide and then Hoogy can act clueless when somebody shows up to investigate. “What Bear? Does he look like he was snatched by a bear?” Make them look crazy.

What about bear as the trainer, and Jones as the performer…

and we do the opposite version of the 1972 “Cream & Sugar (Two Lumps)” circus act?

You know like a Beverly Hillbillies/Green Acres type of story. Get that kid some roller skates, and start practicing!

Watch it Bear! The Game Commission will trap and relocate you if you are not careful, and to add insult to injury they will put a tag on your ear!

How will this end? It’s all a dream? The kid spends the rest of his life living with the bear? Mom and Dad stroll in?

File a report? If a roaring bear was near a two-year-old child, I’d call 911.

This is so dumb.

The kid’s happy where he is.

How about letting the kid decide?

And, yet again, GA makes the Comics Curmudgeon.

“Oh no, this child is already communicating like an animal! He’ll soon be lost to the human species altogether! Sure, he’s barking like a dog, not growling like a bear, and also the bear speaks English anyway, but the point is that we need to send Delta Force into this national forest immediately to extract this child and return him to normal H. sapiens society.”

“Phoosh! I’ll give ’em my *full blast roar!”*

Similar to what this fella does?
