Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for December 16, 2024

Does he?

Has anyone examined his scalp for a birthmark… a cluster of three sixes?

I want to see what Sterling has in mind for it. Maybe I’ll let him have mine.

So, Sterling—any soul in particular?

I just hope they’ve picked out a nice “facility” for him. It’s almost time…..

Nobody can take just one!

Doesn’t he mean Satan? He’s got lots of souls.

Dig Seagull in the first panel.

A “Dark Souls” game would be a perfect gift for Sterling

Dad just takes the request in stride…

I thought gingers didn’t have souls?

Are you sure he has one, Dad..?

With a father who’s a fisherman, getting a sole shouldn’t be too difficult.

That’s nice. Now back to the tide chart.

That’s a little creepy even for Sterling.

Everyone knows that the anagram of Santa is Satan.

Maybe it’s possible that Sterling did arrive via junk mail.

Dad just takes it all in stride.

One of the best strips yet!

Can you imagine Sterling’s voice? I can’t imagine what would be scarier. A deep, James Earl Jones? Or some cheery, happy little kid voice. “Gee Mr. Wilson!” like Dennis.

I got soul, but not someone else’s (repeat 14 times)

Dark, Mr. Henry. Dark.

This totally made me laugh out loud!

“Gotta ask Santa” LOL!

Good answer Dad….short and sweet!!!!

Sometimes I think Sterling says these sort of things just so to deliberately play into the reputation he knows he has.

It’s easier on the mind to consider than the alternative, at least. :P

And here I thought Lio was creepy! — and yes, I haven’t been following this strip all that long.

So cute. Sterling wants to start a collection.

Sorry, Sterling; one per customer.

caused my tongue to go firmly into my cheek

Whooo Hooo! Bring it on!

Do they just let this sort of thing ride because Sterling has this “Anthony in ’It’s a GOOD Life’” thing going on and if they call him out, they end up in the bay?

Buy Sterling a James Brown box set. That will give him a nice collection…

Can you imagine how the typical department store Santa would react if Sterling was sitting on his lap and asked for someone else’s soul? Bet that’s not covered in “Santa School”.

Actually, I really don’t believe Sterling has a soul there Dad.

Wait about 15 more years or so and get married. You’ll have custody of each others souls

Sterling came out asking, guns a blazing.

Love it! Can’t wait

They are keeping that house too warm for December if Sterling is comfortable in just his underpants.

Picking up on some zombie-ish holiday vibes here. Sounds/looks promising …

oh, no

Where does Santa get his extra souls? Or maybe naughty kids?
