Red and Rover by Brian Basset for August 24, 2015

Now, this is getting depressing. Red, you bring Rover home right now!

That looks mighty lonely.

But I see a martian squirrel.

So should we rename him “Opportunity” or “Curiosity”?

Or, as NASA would put it, “Rover on Mars: Sol one.”

Okay, time for rover to come home, he’s way to much of a sweetie to be left out there

He looks so scared! Red you bring Rover home right now.

I Thank you for the personal invitation to visit rover on Mars. Possible advanced party or welcoming party. Loved the balloons. What does earth look like from Mars?

Rover is considering his options before he disem-barks…

Perhaps Bob hitched a ride.

at least the box is open so he can get out….

Yeah, I saw a squirrel!

I knew that those things were not of this world.

LOL I just finished reading, ‘The Martian’. Rover has nooo idea how bad he’s got it

Pamella WA bright blue dot – dust storms permitting.

A squirrel on Mars? That pup is in doggie heaven! Love the artwork, and the way Rover peeks his little nose out.

hhhhmmmm, squirrel, no trees, a bit over 1/3 G, this is going to be one heck of a chase……

All that red dirt………. looks like around here (NC) in the summer when we’ve had one of those long dry spells. Rover is not on Mars. He’s somewhere near Charlotte in someone’s plowed field!

No comic strip has ever brought me such joy every day as Red and Rover…until now. BRING ROVER HOME.

Of course we desperately want Rover to come home, but don’t you think that maybe Mom & Dad are very involved in this mission to Mars?

LOVE & HUGS TO DEAREST RED & ROVER

Sad, some people have 0 imagination

At one time the squirrels ruled Mars. That must be an ancient statue.

I just don’t like the idea of Rover being kept alone in a box in the backyard! Yeah, I know they can read each other’s minds so it’s all cool, but why didn’t Red just go WITH HIM to Mars?
