Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for October 22, 2019

If Jack McGee got another lead on the Hulk, you’d probably hear more news.

And it likely will be dark at 10 PM until June, perhaps May depending on how far north you are (or December, perhaps November if you are Southern Hemisphere).

Hey, no news is good news!

And no Huns to lighten the landscape.

Ten o’clock, and all is water bottles.

(They discovered that the well is polluted.)

It’s dark at 6:30 already! Winter makes me feel like a mushroom in a basement….

Really dark could describe the humour in this strip, sometimes.

Speaking of which. . .waiting to turn the lock ack.. .I hate getting up in the dark. ..

Well, if you keep the reporters in the dark they have to make up something. Even if it is lame.

I wonder how the guard knows what time it is, and in the dark.

Slow news is good news.

Meanwhile he media spinners blame the parties they don’t like for the absence of news, and make predictions of doom.

10 A.M., it’s really dark due to the industrial pollution (and the convoy of semi-trucks that just rolled by)
