Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for December 08, 2021

Return to the sea for a while, Mom.

Well, she’s not relaxed now!

Even the Gull gets some color!

“Fingerpaints aren’t just for fingers!”

Well, boys will be boys.

This is where Mom makes like Abe Simpson and goes right back out the door.

Mom: “Just a minute. I forgot my car outside. I’ll just be a second…”

Well, at least they’re all wearing underwear.

It’s not about the yoga, but the place you go after yoga

She had a hard day at work and now this?

You could always turn the furnace off for a while using the emergency switch, but that would ruin the story.

That first panel is simple, yet supremely evocative..

Cereal and cheesesticks – tis a manly meal.

Sterling’s is able to understand he has do something stressful for his mom. He’s growing up!

Mom is going to leave now and will be back in two hours. Fix the furnace and clean everything up by the time I get back.

After yoga, this isn’t what she needs. If I were her, I would go to my bedroom and scream in my pillow. And I would watch tv

Am I just not remembering Sterling talking before this?

She’s been gone an hour and the boys have already devolved into cavemen.

Wallace was right, yesterday: Snow!! (Spud is probably drinking cocoa and deciding on tomorrow’s socks.)

Hope that it was fun cause it’s definitely not fun now……

My look at the time! I’m going to be late for my wine tasting club!

Look, just be happy they didn’t burn the house down, mother dear.

Not enough yoga in the world to balance out that household.

Maybe time for some more surfing, Mom.

How ’bout tightie whities for the gull?

Hey, they’re still alive, right? Fed and happy? Parenting, for the win.

Turn it off and open the windows.

Mr. McClellan might be in the downward doghouse.

I know there’s no animation but I’d swear I can see her eye twitching like Scrat in Ice Age.

Ha! The paint’s the same color GC uses for the little dingbats at the side of the strip. It looks as if they’ve been decorating the walls as well.

Wallace and Sterling seem to have exchanged places judging from their usual salutations- Wallace has devolved and Sterling is moving up to friendly greetings!
