Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for October 19, 2024

Huh?

Some just play possum, but he’s a master thespian.

The possums around here have white faces and more pointy muzzles.

There is no going back.

I wasn’t playing.

Rats has more lifes than cats eh.

Jesus and the twelve opossums

Well, what was the cartoon character Pogo?

I think they are Irish. You know, O’Possum.

Possibly just a little too good. At least he made it to heaven.

The rat died possumously?

Would have been more funny with cats rather than rats.

And if those guys are opossums, they don’t look like them!

Oh I get it….they are Opossum, and the hero of our comic was playing dead, and did it so well that he ended up going to heaven….but he was only “playing-dead” and so had to return to life (being alive) on earth…Wow, I went from huh? What is this ? Rats in Heaven…then somebody mentioned Lemmings and I realized they were Opossum…I’m embarrassed I almost didn’t get that joke….Good Job (as usual) Dave Coverly.

The road was his end.

His end was the road.

Or so they say.

Awesome Possum!

Took me a moment, but then I noticed those opossum tails…
