Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 21, 2012
Transcript:
Mom: Miss Bliss says you teased Dill all day and called him the "New Kid." Alice: Um. Mom: She says you made him cry. Alice: Well, his shirt was new, and that threw me... Alice: Also, he didn't have gum in his hair. I could hardly recognize him! Mom: No TV, no dessert, and you're going to bed early.

You cannot fool Mom.

Funny how Mom realized Alice was grumpy before she even got out of bed.

Not unless it happens by Sunday. BTW, Thanks for all the laughs, Richard. Best of luck to you.

Pretty heavy-duty discipline, Mom. But I think Alice has earned it by treating poor, sensitive Dill so harshly. He may never regain his confidence (such as it is) fully.

You better get up on the right side of the bed tomorrow, Alice.

So few days to figure out where this is going. So sad that the strip is going away.

I never new any little girls like that. Maybe I could have used some practice—the big ones are all that way!

No dessert? Ah!

Mom is the one who told Alice she was going to see brand new stuff. It’s really Mom’s fault.

It’s a real loss. We are really going to miss this comic.

I rarely post but wanted to say how much I’ll miss this strip. I wish Richard could either dictate and have someone draw in his style or, perhaps, do a once a week strip like Foxtrot.
Either way, or no way, bless you Richard for this fine strip.
Hope they repeat it forever.
