Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for March 01, 2020

Once again, a little under 10 years ago, a blog entry preceded this strip:

how observant of you, Beni & Alice

CB was here?

I can just see him now going out and buying himself yet another kite. Why?

Richard Thompson’s kite-eating tree is much more imaginative than Charles Schulz’s.

Good Camouflage! Can’t see Chas. Browns cadaver anywhere!

Good grief!

In like a lion…

I like that this plays well with today’s Peanuts strip where CB is flying a kite. Well, “flying” may not be the correct term for how he does it.

Love the way, Thompson segued the storyline through the panels.

They must have wondered into the Peanut’s neighborhood…

wonder if there are any kites that can be salvaged to fly again?

I’m looking forward to bikini season.

Homage to Sparky.

(Coincidentally, tomorrow is Clean Monday in Greece, when flying kites is part of the traditional celebration.)

the ultimate kite-eating tree. :D
