Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for September 12, 2009

Murder mysteries might be better? How about farming tips (anyone read “reaper Man”?)

Chapter One - “Death By Chocolate”

I don’t know … . he always makes ME laugh.

It’s all in the marketing. They need to call themselves the Brothers Grimm Reaper.

Don’t quit your day job - even if your not reaping any rewards.

Horton steps on a Who?

Mr. Reaper: ” It should be. I’ve been with two kids for 7 years!”

You can do it. You just need some sting.

The fork in the outlet is KILLING me! What a fantastic little detail.

Yeah, honest farm work. Sixpence is sixpence. “Die Spot! Die!” - haha, brilliant!

Curious George And The Electric Fence…….Fuzzy Bunny And The Runaway Mower

beckerjm It’s bad enough you said it twice, but what makes you think this strip has any political undertones?

The cat who had nine liv…no, eight live…no wait seven li or was that six….

or maybe death and the doctor’s office. (Well, it’d be a slow death anyway.

baslimthebeggar, BC13, & canadaeh, LOLX3 Love the way your minds work!

Lassie Down the Well.

Make way for Duckli . . Splat! Oh, never mind.

The Adventures of Noose and Sickle

The one on the left HAS to be female, because women have sure been the death of me…lol

Well, if you look back at what the Brothers Grimm’s fairy tells really were like, the reaper should have a fair shot, he’s just in the wrong century! Or he could should go back to the classics and “spruce them up” like the guys who are rewriting Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice with zombies! I beleive they make Mr Darcy a vampire.

How about “The Little Engine That Killed”?

re: the fork in the outlet. also there is a hangmans noose on the lamp!

Oh geez, another writer. Whatever happened to Death just taking a holiday??????

Bet Lio would like his books.

How about trying to write nursery rhymes like:

Old MAcDonald Bought the Farm, and Mary Shot A Little Lamb

Cinderella dressed in yella went upstairs to shoot her fella!

Jack Sprat could eat no fat, his wife could eat no lean so between these 2 cannibals they wiped the town out clean.

How about “Mr. Reaper’s Neighborhood”? They could visit Dr. Kavorkian’s office in the land of make believe.

How about, ‘Little Dead Riding Hood’?

Or maybe a casket training book ” Everybody Dies ”

@bigg3469: more like “Goldilocks & the Three Bears — the Unabridged Version”

Perhaps “Who’s Mindiing the Morgue”

Boy, this cartoon really sparked a lot of great comments. And I see some read Scary Gary, too. How about: Jack & Jill went up Boot Hill, or Mary ate her little lamb, or Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, oh, that one’s already been done.
