WHAT'S THAT BIG BOOK YOU'RE READING, GOAT?

THIS STEPHAN PASTIS MIDLIFE CRISIS THING IS RIDICULOUS.
YEAH.. AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE HIS WIFE STACI LEFT HIM.
YOU'RE RIGHT. WE NEED TO SOMEHOW GET HER TO TAKE HIM BACK.
HOW?
HE'S REGRESSED TO INFANCY.

OUR CREATOR, STEPHAN, IS HAVING SOME SORT OF MIDLIFE CRISIS.
YOU MEAN LIKE WHERE HE BUYS A SPORTS CAR AND TRIES TO RELIVE HIS 20s?
I THINK HE'S AIMING FOR A LITTLE YOUNGER THAN THAT.
PEEK-A-BOO! I SEE YOU!
PLEASE GO AWAY.

DO YOU THINK OUR CREATOR, STEPHAN, HAS BEEN ACTING A LITTLE LESS MATURE LATELY?
WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?
I'M IN MY CHOO CHOO JAMMIES.
THERE'S THAT.
HA HA. STEPHAN LIKE CHOO CHOO JAMMIES.

DO YOU THINK COMIC STRIP CENSOR-SHIP IS MORE STRICT THAN THE CENSORSHIP YOU SEE IN OTHER FORMS OF MASS ENTERTAINMENT?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, PIG?
PLAYING WITH MY VIKING ACTION FIGURINES. THEY'RE ABOUT TO BATTLE.

Q-TIPS.
AT WORST, THEY'LL GET CLEAN EARS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT LITTLE MOSQUITO HAS BEEN ENCASED IN THAT AMBER FOR SIXTY MILLION YEARS.
IT'S STRANGE, HUH?
YEAH. AND HE'S BEEN TOTALLY PRESERVED.
THAT'S TRUE. PROBABLY DOESN'T LOOK MUCH DIFFERENT THAN HE WAS THEN.
SO BEING FOSSILIZED LIKE THAT IN TREE RESIN IS A BIT LIKE BEING IMMORTAL. YOU'RE PRETTY MUCH GUARANTEED TO BE AROUND FOREVER.
ONE STEP AHEAD OF YOU.
YOU CAN'T BREATHE IN RESIN.
WHO CARES ABOUT BREATHING WHEN YOU CAN BE IMMORTAL?
WOULD IT BE WRONG TO GO THROUGH HIS WALLET?

HEY, RAT. WHERE WERE YOU?

I LIKE TO KEEP MY PUBLIC ASSOCIATION WITH TOILET PAPER AT A MINIMUM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, RAT?
I GOT A JOB SENDING JUNK E-MAIL. HERE'S MY LATEST.
Enlarge your pens.
WHOA WHOA WHOA. THAT'S TROUBLING AND I DON'T KNOW WHY.
I'D LOVE A BIGGER PEN.
IS THAT RIGHT?

CHECK IT OUT, GOAT...I'M WRITING AN ALTERNATIVE HISTORY OF THE ITALIAN DICTATOR, BENITO MUSSOLINI. IT'S SET IN THE PRESENT.

#HopeYouLikePasta
HE TWEETS.
YOU SHOULD SEE HIS FACEBOOK SELFIES.

EVERYONE TRIES SO HARD TO LOOK SMART BY READING AND GOING TO COLLEGE, BUT ALL YOU REALLY NEED TO LOOK SMART IS A KNOWING WASH.
THAT'S AS GOOD AS AN ACTUAL EDUCATION.
HAA HA HAAAA
HE MUST KNOW WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.

I CAN’T BELIEVE THE MOSQUITO IN YOUR AMBER IS ALIVE, GOAT…WHAT HAPPENED, LITTLE MOSQUITO?
I DON’T KNOW. I JUST LANDED ON SOME TREE RESIN AND GOT STUCK…HOW MUCH TIME HAS PASSED?
SIXTY MILLION YEARS.
MY WIFE MUST BE GETTING SO SUSPICIOUS.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE THERE, GOAT?
AMBER. IT'S SIXTY-MILLION-YEAR-OLD RESIN THAT'S BECOME FOSSILIZED WITH THIS LITTLE MOSQUITO STUCK IN IT.
HELP.
THAT PART'S A BIT OF A DOWNER.

EVERY SINGLE RELATIONSHIP I HAVE WITH ANYONE ELSE IN MY LIFE ENDS IN BITTERNESS, ANGER, AND RESENTMENT. EVERY SINGLE ONE. AND WHEN THAT HAPPENS, A GUY HAS TO SAY TO HIMSELF, "IT'S GOTTA BE ME, RIGHT?"
RIGHT.
WRONG. IT'S ALL THE IDIOTS AROUND ME.
AND FOR A SECOND, I THOUGHT WE WERE HAVING A MOMENT OF GROWTH.
HERE'S HOPING THE REST OF THE WORLD PULLS ITS HEAD OUT OF ITS @#%.
