There is no problem that cannot be solved through sufficient application of lasers and friendship.

He's also already told his wife where their son is, so there's no reason for Savarna to even go up there anymore. At this point Kit's just reading so he can do even more end runs around the predictions. AND if that's Moz's plan I'll golf clap.

I find the little alien to be the laziest of the Bizarro "Secret Symbols" - 99 times out of 100 they just stick it zooming into one of the corners and don't even attempt to hide it - but I had a chuckle at giving it an outfit to match the theme. Look at his little hat! (The joke itself is bad.)

Also my eyes went straight to the second half of that Family Circus strip and I thought Billy was trying to hasten his snowman's death with a hot water bottle.

Could we get a higher resolution "Boltar knocks"? What an absolutely fantastic panel.

It doesn't help that Batiuk seems to have missed the joke of the original lyrics (at least the way my mom told it to me), referring to how many (rear end)holes it takes to fill the concert hall.

I'd heard it was a placeholder lyric they never bothered replacing. Beatles did that sometime. (Ditto for "The movement you need is on your shoulder" in Hey Jude, Paul meant to change it but John told him not to.)

Daisy, as regular Giant Days readers may know, is a master of the game of pool. This may have been a “sop” on my part to US audiences but then again it may not. In any case, here, undiluted by regional marketing concerns, is her snooker prowess.

I was going to post a few panels of Daisy playing pool from Giant Days, but Amazon web viewer has no zoom.

Wrong: the real answer is that cost-cutting measures by cruise ship companies have left them woefully unprepared for a real emergency. Also Cassandra Cat stole one or something.
