    Maurice didn’t shave for 2 weeks because he wanted his mustache to look full.

    Just when you thought GoComics format couldn’t get any worse, the programmers outdo themselves. Now, no matter how I tweak the screen, the Search box is split in two, one half above the other.

    Not everyone uses their phone for everything.

    “I wish I had a pencil-thin mustache, the Boston-Blackie kind, a two-tone Ricky Ricardo jacket, and an autographed picture of Andy Devine”

    George sent a head shot to be on standby if one of the president’s sons were to be fired.

    With that forehead and those eyebrows, if he isn’t an oboist the world has suffered a great loss.

    No matter how skilled the artist tried to hide it, he was unable to disguise the fact that his subject was a smug, arrogant ponce !

    I had to look up ‘five head’. I’d never heard that expression in my life.

    I gather that “Maurice” isn’t his real name either. Apparently, some people just call him “Maurice” because he speaks of the pompatus of love.

    http://www.all-art.org/DICTIONARY_of_Art/b/Brozik1.htm 

    both have info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1992 (July 9, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.

    Maurice always was a great disappointment to his father.

    The artist, attempting to make his son look smart.“Yes, see? He has a very large brain.”

    Unfortunately, stupidity is genetic.

    Maurice thought the “cookie duster” made it look like his hair had just migrated down his face rather than just leaving completely.

    Funny, I think that portrait bears quite the resemblance to McGee of NCIS!
