Here’s an LOL from Shoe that your editors didn’t take notice of until it was featured on The Comics Curmudgeon. Thanks, Josh / Uncle Lumpy!

Oh yes, I’ve seen ads for that phone, haven’t you?

Perhaps only a bit stranger than Janus, a star that has one side hydrogen, the other side helium https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/07/this-white-dwarf-star-has-two-faces/

A pretty nice Meta comic! I’ll look forward to seeing the color version, and checking what elements are red. Meanwhile, here is a red tee fitting for reference :

Well, here it is! Nope, nothing exciting to be learned …

(No language issues here, so we are not including the Spanish version.)

Here’s one kind of meta idea taken to a logical conclusion.

This one I wanted to make a daily standalone CIDU, but couldn’t really justify that.

OK, it’s a general picture of some sort of “bad boyfriend behavior”, but what exactly is he saying, to get rid of who or what? (Secondarily, since the absent partner here is a stand-in for the cartoonist, she might well be taking a share of blame for so often provoking exasperation.)

But then again, here they are together for some creative brainstorming!

Oh and BTW, for others who follow this strip, does this mean he is part of the spinoff “Side Gig” business that she and her pal from work are planning to quit their jobs to go launch? Or I guess he’s just being supportive about it…

A piquant FA

And didn’t we recently see a “CTRL-Z” comic?

Well we’re all familiar with that pun (sez Mitch), but not usually from this perspective, nor presented so starkly.

When I (zbicyclist) saw this on social media, I thought it was probably altered. I don’t think of Charles Schulz using a lot of groaner puns. But it’s legit: it appeared February 9, 1982, as I found out using the Peanuts search engine, https://peanuts-search.com/?q=bush%20pilot

How nice, when you can know just what’s coming, but the joke works fine anyhow!

That’s another fine meta you’ve got us into!

For a comic strip not generally* done in “realistic style”, this shows a lot of detail to convincingly set the scene!

[*] Though they occasionally go hyper-realistic by using a photo panel!

Suggested by Dirk the Daring, who notes “Me thinks David Sipress has never left the city.  The cow and pig in the background aren’t too bad, but up front we seem to have a cow with pig nose and maybe a pig with a cow tail.  Or maybe not.

The gag itself is pretty good though.”

As a commenter at GoComics hints, that Mr. Wilson better not be Dennis Mitchell’s neighbor!

Yes, this was a Sunday strip.
