Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for September 01, 2024

Cool Dad! ♡

Absolutely charming! The vase of flowers … what a touch. Every panel is splendid!

A boy and his seagull.

Good thing Wallace didn’t use other parts of the house, otherwise Dad might have been more floored.

I like the visual way his whistle cuts off.

Like father like son

Two ships* passing in the night**.

A tie between today’s strip and today’s reader comments as to which are more charming. Kudos all around.

The apple never falls far from the tree.

Dad looks out the window to see a past image of himself.

Another artfully done Sunday strip!

A-door-able! <3

Move along, nothing to see here…

I love the thumbs up they give each other.

Of COURSE Wallace is fine… “No problems HERE, Dad!”

Oh it’s a door LOL

I love the thumbs up they give each other.

Wait until dad gets home and finds out it was HIS door :P

Sad to see the disposable cups floating in the water.

That would almost certainly not work, unless the door were filled with styrofoam or something. And it’d be unstable.

Fishing on a door with bouquet snacks and a friend. Bliss.

Best Comic. Best audience with the best comments.

Is that a HINGE hiding behind the flower can? If so, who puts the hinge on the same side as the doorknob? And where did the door come from? I Spud at the bottom of the bay after playing “Titanic”?

It seems to me that Dad has become even hairier now than we’ve ever seen him before! I know they say that eating or drinking [insert food/drink item here] will put hair on your chest, but what’s he been doing to put this extra hair all over?

Will, I hope your dad was this chill…

Solid wood or very strong styrofoam door no doubt……

…where’d he get the door?

A little Huck Finn on a Sunday

I wanna live here!

“You good? You’re good. Mmkay then!”

They both should have foam floaty jackets on before they get pulled overboard by a big one that almost got away.

Theres a knock. Wallace moves everything to one side. The door opens up and Spud walks out of the stairway with a pizza. They hi-five and dig in.

Dad of the year. we can discuss why there’s a hinge and the knob on the same edge later.

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it”

That’s my Boy!

Love how this is perfectly normal.

S’alright? S’alright.

Very cool Dad and very cool son!

just a normal day at sea

Title scene: In a distant gull’s-eye view, The Narwhal rides on long sloping swells. She’s carrying several drums and a pile of lobster traps.* There’s no sail; a long string of red and white pennants from deck to mast tip (no signal flags, just alternating red and white) is displayed in a light breeze. We see a low chop at the stern, and a bit of splash at the bow.

*A propos of not much, I realize that there are musical drum sets with traps too.

Love this family

You relax about things like this when your other child is Sterling
