This week is very much made up of left over gags from other weeks, being used as filler while the counter in the corner of the top right frame ticks its way up to the big 1,000. So here’s a gag from the long grass series that was too good to waste. Originally a kangaroo was going to appear in the penultimate panel, but in between the writing and the drawing of this strip, Pokemon Go took off, so I replaced the Roo with a Pikachu, and the gag became about ten times better.
Hello Mr. Pilcher! This is indeed a wonderful gag! So funny! I guess my cat would look just as astonished as Smith and Jones and Smudge in the last panel.
Oh, by the way: I’m really very curious about your new character you will reveal soon!
