Slylock Fox – April 15th, 2013
I love the way Slylock, awash in shadows and shame, watches Max bicker with some dog lady over the last blouses. Come on, Max! You knew he was lying when he claimed they were from China. Why does France sound more authentic to you?
Max is going to be disappointed, too, when he finds out it’s nylon. He wanted to wear real worm spit.

You know, I unironically love this strip and think Bob Weber, Jr’s a very talented guy, but this is what, two recycled puzzles in two days? I do get that there are only so many of these things you can think up and I don’t think I could do a better job than he is, but still, it’s something you want to avoid if you can…
…and since Bob’s left a comment here once before, maybe he’ll see this idea I just came up with. Assuming he isn’t already doing this, what if he asks readers to send in ideas for puzzles, a la Pluggers, except, you know, good?
