I haven't been following Mary Worth. Is this girl getting molested by the doctor?

Absolutely nothing out of the ordinary is happening between this girl and the doctor, but she can see fairies and angels and has a spider sense about bad things happening and he's setting it off something fierce. I WISH I WAS JOKING

The angels also told her to stay away from water, so she is definitely going to drown in that pool back there. Get Naked Comix. Pooch Café The smartest characters in the strip, immediately abandoning Poncho. Ballard Street Can't fault his enthusiasm. I jump up on the furniture and take my shirt off when Treehouse Masters comes on too.

Her cyst (secretly a budding alien intelligence) is attempting to subtly prevent her from allowing its removal from her body. If it can pupate for another week, it will be strong enough to control her parents' minds, and then it will have nothing stopping it from reaching full maturity. Nothing but Mary Worth, that is!

Skippy (May 4, 1927) Of course the fish is dead. SKIPPY KILLED HIM YESTERDAY! Peanuts (July 26, 1967) Funky Winkerbean And yeah, that's Tony. Popeye Rip Haywire takes on a NO GURLZ ALLOWD policy. Out Our Way (May 6-7, 1925) At 22, Billy Evans ("the boy umpire") was the youngest umpire in major league history, and the youngest World Series umpire at 25. This kid, on the other hand, will be lucky to make it to 12. EasyEW fucked around with this message at 14:50 on Jul 23, 2014 |

I always wondered why Watterson didn't just give them names. It seems odd given that Calvin's dad has a very specific job - he's a patent attorney, and that only comes up in one strip so it's not like the names would have to be a recurring thing either. I guess he wanted them to just be "Mom" and "Dad" because the whole strip is basically Calvin's point of view?

Also, Calvin's dad is a patent attorney because Watterson's dad was, I think Makes sense, I guess. Also I just remembered that Watterson said in the Tenth Anniversary Book that the main reason Uncle Max never appeared again is that he didn't actually bring out anything new in Calvin's character. Every interaction Calvin has with him could be done with one of the other adult characters, so he was extraneous. Also, speaking of Calvin, Yesssss
