Luka’s original line was “flowing freer than tears from a sucker-punched preschooler!” but that just seemed mean.
Reasonably Clever
Wasting your workday since some point in 1995.
Luka’s original line was “flowing freer than tears from a sucker-punched preschooler!” but that just seemed mean.
Maybe she should wish her dad un-stabbed.
She already did, a couple of strips ago.
Get off your high horse before daddy is ridin’ low in a hearse!
@Chris: “and the now the wishes”? I think there’s one too many “the” in that fourth line of Luka’s dialogue. 😉
I half expected this strip to end with: “Shut up woman, get on my horse.”
@ Geoffrey: true. However it’s still unclear how sober/drunk Luka is at the moment.
Is her shirt on back wards?
Nice little emotional punch there Doyle. Well done.
Sorry about the typos – I was editing dialog in photoshop again. Fixed now.
@Gabe: Nope. You’re not the first to wonder that, though – the design is very similar on both the front and back of that torso. Luka will be getting a new outfit shortly, so it won’t be an issue much longer.
@Dave: Even the horse is depressed after that guilt hammer.
I’m on a horse.
I enjoyed the rare use of a first-panel punchline here. It makes the emotional depth more pronounced.
@”…a sucker-punched preschooler!”
… 😛
Is that thing on the right a fireplace?
I’m just waiting till Whiskey appears with his new fire/ice powers
@chrisstopher your pic the guy is wearing brick daddy
I like the nurse’s face. She’s all smiles. “Yes, I’m afraid your father was stabbed in the gut, and died. We have free cookies in the morgue. Have a nice day!”
Uh oh. Doyle’s drunk. Soon, Doyle will make all women in that universe hate clothing. Whiskey can probably wish for that and get away with it. DOYLE GET SOBER!!!!!!!! FAST!!!!!!!!!!
