Barnabas may not always get along with teachers, but he seems good with kids. He also seems to have upgraded from his old-style typewrìter to a laptop computer.
His hatreds can be very focused while being kind and generous to all others. Some serial killers were happily married and their spouses had no idea what they were.
Regarding Barnabas’ affection for his son… In the movie “Casino” the vicious Nicky Santoro ( played by Joe Pesci ) always was there for his son each morning to cook breakfast per Robert De Niro’s narration…
Alt Script: 1- Sa-weet! Just finished what is sure to be the first Pulitzer winning article for Glamorous Glamour magazine: Knickers – Are They Set For A Hot Return To Golf? 2- KID: Hey Mister. Our teacher sent us out to raise money for school supplies. She’s tired of paying for them herself. BARN: Whadaya got? Candy? Cookies? 3- KID: No. She stole a roll of paper towels from the cafeteria and gave each of us a sheet to sell. We’re not doing so good so far…
Jerry “the King” Lawler is well-drawn on the framed image in panel 1. Meanwhile, Bar Tar in the Sports Office is on his best behavior with the kids. Or, is this the onset of The Big Reveal that he is not The Professor (and that instead Reg Rocks Tar is)? I am still wondering about this possibility….

DO kids still visit newspapers? I would think a TV Station might be a better field trip

Funny… they refer to him as Jerry King today but the other day when Barnabas mentioned him he called him Jerry Lawler.

Between Jerry Lawler and Connie Wong (https://www.gocomics.com/dicktracy/2017/04/24?ct=v&cti=534076) I’ve loving this strip’s Memphis salutes.

Great artistic touch today in the last panel, with Barnabas all in black (except for his glasses) while the kids are in full color.
