Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for June 25, 2024

FIRST DATE!

Rose IS the smart one in the Harbor. Snug!

Thufferin’ Thuckotash!

Oh good, an accomplice.

I love Rose, she is such a cool kid! ♡

A buoy, a gull, and keeping up a pier-ances!

Will anyone else show up? Spud?

Nothing like a bit of collaboration to help the annual chucking of the shoes into the harbor to its worthy conclusion.

A Wallace and Rose storyline? This will be interesting…

Ah, there really is a spark of a rebel deep down in Rose’s soul. Good.

Would you look at that perspective in panel two!

Wallace never learns, does he? His mother will be furious he’s chucking another pair of shoes into the ocean AND that he snuck out to do it.

Midnight liaison.

Rose is a witness to the ritual. Good companions.

why didn’t he do this right after school let out like he usually does?

Double winner!!!!!

The fish bones are a nice detail in panel 2.

Will Wallace tempt Rose to toss her shoes too?

…Logic! :D

Someone is about to spend another summer grounded, if he continues on the Path of Poor Choices.

Guys - SUCCOTASH! Gotta be a Cul de Sac tribute!

Hey now! Could we be seeing the beginning of a beautiful partnership? Hmmm, Hmmmmmm….

And then Wallace came around in the middle of the night

Saw a Rose a spying, knew something ain’t right

He was headed to the Harbor with a stinky load

You could smell the shoes a throwin’ down Succotash Road

Succotash Road!

Wallace – ever the optimist! Even though the rest of us know this probably won’t end well for him.

I thought the annual shoe throwing was a spectator sport. Not so much fun to do it quietly at night alone.

Aww.

When she saw Wallace walking, shirtless and shoeless down Succotash Road, she just knew that he was the boy for her!!

Will Mom be there to ground him again?

That’s wallace for you, always willing to help out a friend.

A safe but adventures childhood. What a start in life. Always such a fantastic comic.
