Covid (in)consistencies, part 2

Some more covid (in)consistency comics.

From Andréa.

Here the “consistency” issue arises when the character watches old movies.

Dreams also needs to be consistent!

A GoComics commenter commented: ” Nancy (the strip) has had a bit of an uneasy relationship with the pandemic. I don’t think masks have been needed in the same way they were in, say, Arlo and Janis or Luann or Betty, but it makes it a little weird when they’re needed for the joke.”  

It took me (Winter Wallaby) an exceptionally long time to parse the sequence of events in this strip.

A Halloween left-behind LOL.

In case you didn’t know, the “Nick and Zuzu” comic panels run as accompaniment to an advice column by Carolyn Hax. Sometimes they really depend on the writing and are totally CIDU without it. Other times, the comic is quite independent of the column which sparked it; and that is the case here. And the cartoons appear elsewhere, where the column is not available or even mentioned, such as GoComics.
