Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 04, 2010

Ah, Petey… Alice is most self aware.

Alice is very proud of herself.

Are we going to have a Petey transformation? I’ll miss the old, neurotic Petey!

No, I think Petey will remain the Petey that we know and love, just with a few more friends.

Hang on, Petey! You can do it! I’m sure lots of kids (besides big Andre) have survived reading Boom Bang Comics!

Alice, though, should not be so smug. Doing the exhausting can slip easily enough into being exhausted….

Alice, it’s a tough job, but somebody’s got to be the one who does all the exhausting! And Petey maybe your new friends will give you new reasons to be neurotic!

That comic book seems to be giving off a lot of exhaust.

I’m already beginning to feel exhausted by Alice. I better go back to bed.

On the Alice-Petey continuum, I skew towards the Petey side of things..

Ah, the sly nature of friendship. He’s exhausted with Andre who is all energy and brightness. But remove the giant for a while, and Petey will find he’s been moved ever so slightly in the BOOM BANG direction and will actually miss Andre.

But you like Viola.

It is funny just how often a family has kids that are completely different from one another personality wise.

Ah one more thing Alice and Andre have in common .

Alice could be her own superhero: The Exhauster!
