Richard Thompson's Cul de Sac, is a comic strip about the life of a pre-school girl named Alice Otterloop. It is a light-hearted comic strip centered around a four-year old girl and her suburban life experiences on a cul-de-sac with her friends Beni and Dill, older brother Petey and her classmates at Blisshaven Academy pre-school. Alice describes her father's car as a "Honda-Tonka Cuisinart" and talks to the class guinea pig, Mr. Danders. She has the typical older brother who plays jokes on her, and she contemplates ways to keep the scary clown from jumping out of the jack-in-the-box with friends.

Chocolate frosted sugar bombs would be much scarier.

Happy birthday Richard. My rule for costumes, never wear a costume that doesn’t allow you to sit down. And, never wear a costume that doesn’t allow you to drink.

Douse yourself with milk and it just might work, kid.
But watch out for stray cats.

Very nice effect in the middle panel.
Happy Birthday, RT! Of all the Richard Thompsons in the world, you’re my second favorite (but gaining fast!).

Easiest costume to make. Nothing to sew or to fit, just nail yourself in a box and have someone paint the logo.
There might be a few minor things to consider, but you can do it.
No problem.

If they make a super-economy size bigger than the one Alice is holding, she may be able to literally dress up as a box of Blammos. But I predict the rain will not be kind to those marshmallows.

I briefly considered that this might be what she was thinking about – what with the discussion of the perfectly marketed cereal box a few days ago. Hope her mom has fun making this!
