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.

I feel it too, Petey. You can’t get out of there soon enough.

It should go next to the fountain she got for Xmas.

The fountain probably came from there originally, too. And the big pot IS on sale, after all, how could they not buy it for her? It could become her new room.

I thought this looked familiar so I just found CdS has been in reruns since 7/9. Now I find that Richard Thompson has decided to end the strip in September.
Life’s not fair. Best of luck, Richard.

aww, dang it! I thought the art suddenly looked like they had finally found a team that worked to keep it going (or best hope, that Richard was having a better time). Thanks for all the really sweet laughs, it will be a huge void, but take care of yourself, we will manage.

How do you know they have escaped, Petey? Maybe they’re still here, waiting for you!

I love how Petey and Alice always have these conversations without actually talking to each other.

Well first off Alice, how would you get it home? And then, how would you get it through your bedroom door?

This a repeat from a year ago. That Xmas hasn’t took place yet.
