Most droll. I also want to take this opportunity to apologize for the EXTREMELY poor scans of this adventure (they were among my earliest attempts), but hey - if people want better quality drawings, then again, I point out that both Corto and Blueberry are available through Eurocomics (if memory serves). The latter will even be in colour!

Yeah, doctors are pushing for earlier colonoscopies due to increasing occurrence of colorectal cancer. The prep wasn’t hideous, I survived drinking the 64oz of Gatorade in 5 hours + fasting + gushing.

Yeah to be clear I don't think this is going to take that kind of swerve, since that'd be a really wild tone shift to contain in about 9 panels for a fairly serious event. I'm guessing it'll just be someone going "you can't spoil a single kid" and Pedro ragging on his brother for getting chekovs diarrhea as an end gag

I predict that Leon has fibbed to the teacher about having neglectful or absent parents so she's trying to cheer him up.

I bought one of those things a few years back just because I wanted to and I could. This was just a little before the Adult Coloring thing took off. The clerk was like, "Oh, your kids will love these!" I was like, "Yeah! They sure will!"

I don't have kids. The crayons were enjoyed.

I kind of miss the "Doings Down in Dippy Dell" side strip (what do you call a topper if it's on the side?) because it was a lovely combination of catchphrase dada and last-minute looming-deadline desperation, but I really enjoy the sincere sports reporting that now summarizes each strip.

Mark Trail's one of those strips that got a fresh artist recently. The old one got sacked for... I think it was getting into public fights with fans? I genuinely don't remember. And they replaced him with a former webcomicer. I think she just isn't handling the schedule of a daily too well.
