Like his Wikipedia page can tell us, Sarasvuo is known for being a lecturer and motivational coach. Maybe there's someone more internationally famous I could've substituted him with in this strip, but clearly they're not famous enough because I couldn't remember anyone.

Poncho doesn't actually know anything about tracking, and I think he might be mistaking mailmen for elephants in that last comic, but Hudson doesn't know enough to argue about it.

There was a time when grocery stores weren't self-service with open shelves (some guy patented the concept in 1916), so in this case the mom probably either phoned ahead or sent the kid with a list and the money, then the person at the counter loaded him up and he was on his own from there.

Mandrake the Magician

This has me seriously considering tracking down some Mandrake collections. I love this comic.
Mandrake's stance and the utterly nonchalant delivery has me hearing his lines in the generic kung fu film over-dub voice. Frogman has the hammy villain voice, of course.

I completely agree. One-panel comics just don't have a good track record; there's a handful of great ones, and the rest feel like 1:30 p.m. sitcom offerings.

Thanks for posting the Moomins, SubNat!

"Everyone with an ideology thinks theirs is the right one, and will look down on others as ignorant and unenlightened, and will often take initiatives to force their beliefs and standards onto other people. This is a harmful and misguided way of thinking regardless of who you are or what your ideologies happen to be."
