Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for August 28, 2022

Mom: “It was either that, or the $50 vase your father broke that one time…”

And you don’t want to know your origin story, Wallace.

Oh good, another Sterling origin story! Seagull is in every frame, including the inset. LOL

that explains a lot…

Laughed out loud…didn’t see that coming!

So the real story here is that Sterling was, um, “created” in an antique store?

Love the ethereal green force blowing in from the netherworld!

He has Calvin’s dead beat by a mile.

Wicked good story :-)

“I’ve tried, buddy.” LOL!

Reminds me of when Calvin asked his dad where he came from. “Oh, you were a Blue Light Special at K Mart …”

Whenever I see Sterling, I always hear the music from “The Omen” playing on the background!

While this is Sterling origin #5 or 6, it’s easily the most accurate. This is also the first one he’s been present for… and I like how he dosent even question it he’s just “Huh that explains why I see visions of my real dad urging me to burn everything whenever I close my eyes”

SO THAT WHAT HAPPENED!?!?!? SEND HIM BAAAACK!!!

Very Calvin’s dad!

“We’ve tried. They wouldn’t take you.”

So…how many origin stories has he given for Sterling now? I’m actually surprised Wallace keeps buying them, considering how often he gives a new one that’s totally different from the ones previous.

The fact that antiquing and Anti-king sound similar is not a coincidence

Look at Sterling’s happy love heart at seeing his new guardians!

i love all the different stories of where sterling came from.

Must have been the Necronomicon. Happens a lot.

Now I need the the time-machine version that sends The Sterlminator.

The seagull, in on the act, in panel 3.

That’s the second story as to where Sterling came from. I can’t remember the first other than it was equally disturbing.

Questo era dunque / Il nocciuol del frate? / Un cavalier! / Mi fa rider la facezia.

I can see Sterling’s buuuuum, I can see Sterling’s buuuum!

I have a step-brother named Sterling. Always wished I could send him back too.

One of the several origins Dad has related to where Sterling came from.

Seagull was in the know; he’s looking disapprovingly.

It’s said that one of the forbidden books Mom and Dad read was The Moustache Necronomicon.

This is the funniest Sterling origin story yet. Keep ’em coming!

love all of seagulls expressions!
