B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for August 24, 2009

Man’s first encounter with his best friend!

Dog;s encounter with his best meal….

Nice doggie.

Sorry, no luck. Run for the hills!

Quick, stuff one of the apples in his mouth.

Looks like Rover’s going to make apple sauce of BC.

Get on one of your wheels and burn rock

BC is toast.

Given his haircut and profile, I’d say it was Thor. The color version confirms this; it has brown hair (while B.C. has red hair).

Don’t be too alarmed, Thor. If he really wanted you to be food (rather than merely wanting to be fed), he’d be working on your throat already.

Hey…this could indeed be a historic moment: the domestication of the dog! And to think that Thor, inventor of the wheel and of the traffic jam, gets this honor too!

Good one, Lewreader!! LOL!

I would say with those spindly legs on that meaty body that Thor (or whoever) has a good chance at running.

I stand corrected. The colorized version @comics.com confirms it is Thor.

Can always give him an apple.

All I know is, it ain’t Peter – he would have known those pointy teeth are canines, not incisors.

it is a shame that B.C. here is not in color….don’t misunderstand, I am glad it is here….but wishing for color cannot be a sin.

I’m glad someone noticed that canines (cuspids) are NOT incisors!

I think he’s about to be shredded into kibbles & bits…

Keep him; a dire wolf would make a good guard dog for your apple rock.

DOGGIE!!

“Does your dog bite?”

Thor the meal on a wheel .

Today’s strip and comments are truly extraordinary, thanks .

I remember a sequence from one of the old books where the cute chick thought the antearter was a doggie. He was of course deeply offended, but when she patted him on the head all he could say was “Arf!” The cute chick has that effect…

My only concern with introducing a dog into the strip is that it may lead to the appearance of a cat, and who wants THAT?

Definition of dplomancy is saying “nice doggie” till you can find a big stick

That man’s last meeting with his “best” friend.

With a friend like that, who needs enemies.

It’s a Rin-Tin-Tin ancestor! Or since we are in comicworld, a (Lucky Luke) Rin-Tin-Can ancestor!

It’s a crossover comic, thats Kenny from The Dogs of C Kennel by Mick Mastroianni (Mick’s brother Mason is currently drawing BC) with some plastic vampire teeth.

just a thought that he was thinking other than the one that had is” I might be a caveman but I know two words Good Bye ” hehe
