I wonder what would his reaction be when he realized the fact about santa

Cartoons aren’t reality? What is reality? OMG

Quincy is wise, but not real.

They’re better than reality.

But when I re-read old newspapers, I think “But that never happened. No, he didn’t say that. This was just straight out lies.” And so forth. Then I look at the comics. And I see stability and consistency.

This might just gone through the fourth and the fifth wall.

This is Quincy’s only line in the daily series.

If comic strips aren’t real, and Andy is a comic strip character, then Jason has nothing to worry about.

Cartoon parenting wisdom.

Quincy speaks! Is this a dream, then?

Oh no Andy, just go watch Galaxy Quest.

But if that’s true, the web shooter shouldn’t be able to shoot webs at all!

Believe Nothing Of What You Hear, Only Half Of What You See, And Be Wary Of What You Read

A note for many who haunt these pages.

Should have realized that when the gamma ray machine didn’t work.

Spider-Dork, Spider-Dork, his mother’s words will make him hork…

This is one of Bill’s more brilliant strips among many. Props to you Bill.

“Listen to your mother, Jason” – genius!

Also Jason should realize that the average cartoonist is not a scientist/engineer/inventor. Most cartoon tech operates by means of vibranium, applied unobtainium, and hand-waves. With the occasional lampshading thrown in.

So detailed instructions on building a web shooter were printed in a comic book? I must have missed that!

Quincy can talk? Zounds!

I remember a long time ago Jason and his friend tried to make a scale model warp drive for science camp based on the design of an Enterprise nacell, how disappointed they would have been when they found out it wouldn’t be able to go faster than the speed of light

this is a good one!

Did any body else hear Luke Skywalker d’s voice when Jason said, “No, that’s not true!”?

Oooh…existentialism!

So, I take it Quincy speaking is the 4th wall breaking moment?
