Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for November 07, 2020

Wire or wood?

And that’s why he’s called Cliff Hanger.

Personally, I prefer surprise endings, especially if they involve a roomful of people waiting for the “birthday boy” to open the door.

Not an action movie .

I had a Clif hanger once. Came off a display in the breakfast bar section of the grocery.

This has to be in the top 5 for outstanding, very good Stephan…

Cliff left a wire on the edge for all to see.

We have a local singer on The Voice named Payge Turner. Top that Stephan!

A Cliff hanger was when Cliff Clavin used to hang around the bar.

This is inane. I don’t see any spots on the jacket.

the suspense is killing me…

A $300 suit jacket on a wire hanger? NO WIRE HANGERS! EVER!!!!

Made me smoan (a smile mixed with a groan)

A Cliff hanger is what Pam wants to do to Cliff on the R.U.Sirius.

Cheered me up. Thank you

Man. Stallone has aged and gone bald.

Cliff Hanger … The Sequel … Croc Power !

This is Cliff. And this is where he parks his airplane.

Gotcher Cliff hangar right here!

Why was the jacket there? That’s the cliffhanger and the main plotline of the next episode.

that’s where my last hanger went……..

Groan

At least with only three panels for the plot, plot inconsistencies and misspellings can be kept to a minimum. . .thanks for the LOL!

Thank you, Pastis. I’m so weary of the “Woe is me, 2020 is so hard!” strips.

So,will that hanger always be a cliff hanger? Even if you put it back in the closet? If so then you could sell cliff hangers

And that’s why they’re called cliffhangers.

Pastis is going to go to the hospital to have an apundectomy.

When he is recovered, he will be sent to the punetentary.

Could have clothed the ending in more secrecy.

Stay tuned for the 3-movie prequel that explains how the suit jacket got there in the first place. . . .

Is this about the 2020 election, perchance?

Some cliff hanger stories don’t end well, like PIGS! We now have a situation where all it takes is a slight wind and a few more ballots and, BADA BING BADA BANG! , over the edge he goes….

That would mean the end of your stories, Rat.

Hopefully the Trump era ends this easy.

Looks dangerous, someone’s going to trip over it and likely put an eye out. Mom.

Makes one wonder, how did his jacket get there?

Thanks for a much needed good laugh!!

No no no no no. These are good groans. Much better than the real groans lately.

How many cliffs could a cliffhanger hang if a cliffhanger could hang cliffs??

The cliff hangers are for all chapters except the ending. A cliff hanger ending is bad writing, even for a series.

I have to give Pastis credit; not many cartoons make me want to gouge my own eyes out!

… as does tRump’s.

Getting up so early to ring the bells of Notre Dame always put Quasimodo in a bad mood. He was a Huff-Clanger.

You’re puttin’ me on , Pastis , GROAN!!!

with Barrett in the Supreme Coup, a hanger can only have one meaning for women.

Rat! Don’t forget your bat!

Cartoon-Boy definitely needs an Attitude Adjustment. —And a mainline infusion of Humor humor (as in “the Four Humors”)….

Long way to go

stephan, i love you, you are so brave!

Ooh, ooh! What happens next??

Stephan, you keep me hangin’ on.

Rat clearly doesn’t like bad puns.

will this be continued?

Was his name Cliff too?

Thank you, Pastis. That made me feel better about today.

LOLOL

So what happens next? Come on, the suspense is killing me!
