Alternate Alley Oop Chapter 16 “Earth 2 Crisis”(32) 1/1/2013
Panel One
The Avenger class chimera GMO flies high, and Oscar back with the group dons the strange looking head device. It has oversized chambers over the eyes since it includes much in the way of 3 D graphics.
Panel Two
“Avenger” followed orders. She had more brain than the standard eagle, she had more of an octopus brain with their greater intelligence but coupled with the raptor part of it. A new line of animals interfaced with technology. Out doing the earlier models of natural flies, roaches and bees being used to carry equipment, now Avenger is among the first gene engineered test beds for that spy technology. She is brilliant.
Panel Three
Oscar is watching as is the interlink with the command station on the Land Master. He has direct control unless Lavainge wants to override him if necessary.

A happy New Year is better with balls than with no balls

I reckon, it weren’t his idea. But with the new year, looks like we can look for loose ends to be tied up.

but new year wasn’t celebrated untill 45 bc when the Julian calendar started.

Well this is not following reality here it is acknowledging our new year not Alley’s. Don’t even know what calender if any they have.

Good New Years Day to the Benders and all. I figure the wizard is grumpy because he wasn’t offered a ball. Moo,
because of the cross-contamination with the present
no doubt has knowledge of Christmas and New Years.
Ancient cultures end of the year would be the winter
solstice that Alley and the gang survived. Proclaiming
new years day with a offering of gifts is a great way to start off the year. One other thing The Chinese calender predates
the Roman calender by many centuries It is believed to
have been introduced by Emperor Huangdi (or Huang Ti) at some stage around 2600 to 3000 years BCE. According to legend, the emperor invented the calendar in 2637 BCE.
The Chinese new year falls between the winter solstice and the march equinox.

If only Oop could get his back but Carole B. removed them a long time ago.

Some ancient cultures celebrated the new year with the Vernal equinox. But The celebration in the strip is to co-incide with our new year. Oop knows our history. So… could he not have convinced King Guzzle to adopt our calender as the Moovian calendar also?
