Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for April 27, 2009
Transcript:
Alice: Petey, was Viola mad that you didn't have her magic token? Petey: No. But I saw Ernesto again today. He was wearing a necktie. It was awful. Alice: See, Petey's giant almost-girlfriend Viola gave him a magic stuffed unicorn so he wouldn't see his maybe-imaginary friend Ernesto, who's even weirder than Petey. Beni: Sounds like one of those TV shows my Grandma likes.

Thank goodness for Alice! I’ve had a hard time figuring out if Ernesto is real or imaginary. Now I see he’s “maybe”.

I’m glad Alice summed that up for me. Maybe Ernesto will “show up” one day when Alice and the others are around with Petey. That way we’ll know if Petey needs therapy or a new friend.

Cul de Sac is definitely one of the most original, and Alice is a character for the ages. Petey’s really coming along though!

This and Lio have become two of my most favorite daily strips. They are worthy heirs of the “Peanuts” legacy, with an amusing twist. I am also a huge fan of Mythtickle - amazingly well drawn and very “ecumenical” (using divinities form many cultures and time periods).

Maybe. Ernesto is imaginary right? Thanks for clearing it up Alice.
