Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 30, 2012
Transcript:
Goat: Did you hear that the grim reaper guy is moving back into the house next door to you? I guess he and Mrs. Death were separated for a while. Pig: Yeah, I sure missed Mr. Death. I'm even making a sign on behalf of the neighborhood welcoming him back. Goat: Maybe we could re-word that. Pig: How 'bout this?

Sounds like a Get Fuzzy plot from a few weeks ago. Pig don’t fear the reaper.

I wonder how they dealt with their separation… in quiet contemplation and reflection, or did Death take a holiday?

So, Death had taken a holiday of sorts, eh? How about a sign saying “Welcome back, Mr. Death! What ever became of your wife?”

This one strip is better than 2 seasons of The Walking Dead. Whose death I’d welcome eagerly.

The second sign could easily pertain to any remaining members of the Sean Cassidy, Suzanne Somers, or Richard Simmons fan clubs.

Wait, didn’t the Deaths have a kid? Gonna have to go back through my books and see if that strip is in one of them. Find out if they did have a kid, and if so then I have to wonder who got custody.

Mr. Death is making a stop on Rubes today as well.

I notice that Rat is not here today – probably away planning some death-defying trick.

Death? I thought he said deaf. I’m putting hearing aid batteries on my shopping list.

“We’re all on death’s door, repeatedly ringing the doorbell, like maniacal Girl Scouts trying to make quota.”

Death was enrolled in a Tony Robbins self improvement seminar. He learned that the hoodie had to go!
