Red and Rover by Brian Basset for October 03, 2024

To the bat-cave!

Rover will be in shock. Ruby is great.

In yesterday’s “Archie” strip, Archie made a snarky comment about Jughead’s dog waiting for him to come home from school—and then he stands in front of Veronica’s locker, waiting for HER to show up. Betcha he got detention just for that!

Well, it’s about time, Red! I can see poor Rover sitting detected at the bus stop! But the bus driver may fill him in (if he knows)!

Red should have used his telepathic powers to tell Rover during school, but I guess Red was too excited to see Ruby.

Ruby’s already yanking you around Red. RUN while you still can.

Hopefully mom brings Rover to Ruby’s

Tower of George? What’s that?

Rover is more important than any Tower of Gorge!

Rover will be po’d if he’s been waiting there long. I can just see his head drooping and his tail down.

My first thought was about Rover when Red agreed to go to Rubys.

Hard to believe that Red didn’t communicate his plans with Rover. Let’s hope Mom clued Rover in. I’d hate to see a picture of Rover at the bus stop, confused, lonely, sad . . .

Poor guy. I hate that feeling too.

Don’t panic!!!!!

Don’t they have mental telepathy?

Priorities, or Rover might be taking a nap.

Ruby is a real gem

Don’t worry, Red. I’m sure your Mom explained to Rover that you’d be home later. Probably gave him a sympathy treat too.

Why not call his mom and ask her to tell Rover?

An upcoming story line about Ruby coming between Red and Rover, perhaps??

He DID tell his Mother, and I’m sure she will see Rover outside and tell him!

LOL… Hang on to this girl, Red – she’s a keeper.

Is something different about this strip? The last few weeks seem a bit different. Still like it.Just wondering.

I notice she understands the problem perfectly.

I love this strip! Thanks, Brian!
