Transcript:
Bennie: Hi, Pig. It's me, Bennie the bear. I want you to know I got rid of my women's boots. Pig: That's great! Now you can chase after rabbits like other bears! Bennie: I don't think so. Pig: Why not? Bennie: My hat will blow off.
Rat: “I can loan you my rifle and you can snipe them from a distance.”Bennie: “Does it have a nice bow on the barrel?”Rat: "Even better, there’s three “my little ponies” on the stock."
Look how long Bennie’s legs are, and look how tall his boots were… am I missing something, or were his feet not at the bottom of the boots? Unless he had about 50 pairs of Dr. Scholl’s in them…
Pig appears to be standing in the same spot in both panels, yet as I see it, the picture on the wall in panel one depicts Rat and Pig, while in panel two, LGD.and Pig.
The picture change in the third panel could be a tribute to Berke Breathed. I seem to recall that the changing picture on the wall was a fairly frequent gag in Bloom County.

@blunebottle -I’m glad someone else picked up on that… I was beginning to doubt my own sanity (although others have doubted it for years.)

I sympathize with Bennie. It’s a NICE hat! —Too nice to lose on a wild rabbit chase! Leave that to Elmer.

Also, the lamp looks a little fatter in the first frame than in the second. You will probably have to zoom in to see it though.

I think Bennie should be brave and wear his BOOTS with his nice new HAT!!!!!
Dex_N_FX almost 12 years ago

I think that rat needs to pay you a visit, Firedome.
angusdad almost 12 years ago
Sounds like he has identity issues. Although he probably should have kept the boots. They would look good with the hat.

Fashion before practicality and comfort.
