Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for August 22, 2019

Ah, are we, perhaps, getting away from Joel and Rufus for awhile? We can only cross our fingers and hope.

New arc with a nut case.

Who wants to see Chipper when we can have Dr. Touchy-Feely instead?

For those who have been complaining about no Wallet family members in the strip, Hoagy is the wife of Rover Bump Skinner adopted son of Clovia Wallet Skinner, daughter of Skeenix.

So PA Peter Glabella is an empath, I take it.

I didn’t mind the Rufus/Joel centered story arc, but does anyone know how long ago it was that the strip focused on any other characters?

Finally no rufus or joel great to see hoogie. not sure i like the doc but im not going to complain

Why intoduce a new character while the older ones are ignored?

At least it isn’t Dr. Frank Nelson.

Like everyone else in this strip, Rover and Hoogie grew up in real time. I remember there was a story arc in which they were teenagers.

cue the ominous music
