Uh-oh….

Why do I have the feeling he’s hiding something, like maybe a black eye? He’s said (twice, I think) ‘Stormtroopers don’t cry,’ or something to that effect.

Has the gym teacher’s name always been “Hamhock”? And it sounds like she’s ordering a “hit” on poor Dean! I don’t see this turning out well.

As I recall, that was a line from the song “I’m not in love.” It was whispered, repeatedly, at one point between verses, and gradually faded out.

Let’s see what Mrs. Hamhock face looks like.

Any teacher who ordered a hit on a kid, even in a dodgeball class, would be out on the street by the next period. In fact, more than a few schools have banned dodgeball because “it damages little kids’ psyches.” Yeah, right. As a friend of mine has pointed out, the Bible, especially the gospels, has a lot to say about self-denial. Self-esteem, not so much.

Yes… “show” him…

I like Dean’s answer in the third panel
