And everybody got a good night’s sleep. After they got Robespierre out from under the puddin’ bucket, of course.
Speaking of the Li’l Stinker, Andy p. of “I, Mummy” fame, found this amazing cover:
It’s from The Digital Comics Museum, a treasure-trove of wonderful Golden Age comics that you can download absolutely free.
SQUEEEEEEEEEE Robepierre and Teddy Bear!!!!!!!
Ahem, Sorry ’bout that!
Excellent Charlie!
Yeah, there is something doubly sweet about the Li’l Stinker and his bear, isn’t there?
Robspierre just gets more and more adorable. I love how his adventures are just as interesting as the main story of each strip. And now I know how Stephanie gets that great curl to her hair!
I wonder what “Yakutis melons” taste like…
I’m a little slow this morning. I didn’t get the “Yakutis” reference until now. Not sure if I can finish my breakfast though. Charlie, you’re a freak! 🙂
Why, thank you, sir!
According to Claire, from AndToBeLoved, Yakutis melons (available at your local Brenizer’s Fine Foods n’ Stuff) are “pretty nummy.”
The ONLY way, Larry (or any non gay male) could ‘cuddle’ with Stephanie right now, would be under extreme duress.
While Larry loves company, not like this, not right now.
However, after marriage, there is NO choice in the matter.
Everyone got a good night sleep. Except Larry. He had disturbing dreams about sticky vegetable women with Yakutis melons knocking at his door. Which turned out to be Robespierre tapping on the inside of the pudding tub. All. Night. Long.
Oh boy, you reminded me of a comic I’ve been wanting to do. And I think the time is coming up. I’ll let you know.
Unless you want to do a guest strip..?
Cold cream does have a pudding like texture.
If any of your characters ever deserved a no-frills,no-shenannagins snuggle, it’s Stephanie. Plus, if she’s not a bit apprehensive about finding out what kind of a humechanical she is, then she’s not the Stephanie I know and love, so a bit of reassurance should definitely be in order.
After all, what if it turns out that she’s a wastewater-management specialist, sewer maintainence division? 🙂
Heh-heh, heh-heh; she said “melons”…
See, Charlie. A page like this does so much more to tell people who Edison is than the last one. If you can inject so much about who she is as a person by two other characters just mentioning her in a conversation, I wouldn’t worry in the slightest about a one panel visual gag. Love it.
You’re right, as usual.
Edison isn’t jealous of Stephanie. She knows she doesn’t want to fool around with Larry (if Edison’s navel hangy thingy isn’t there). And she knows that Larry is a gentleman.
She knows that he’s a man, too. Thus the costume. She’s very smart that way.
But she never imagined that Stephanie would eat all her cold cream…
Just one question: When Stephanie sleeps, does she dream of Electric Sheep or Chickens’?
Check out the “Gallery” section. I believe melaredblu has answered that question beautifully.
She eats cold cream now? Seriously, don’t those things have a “do not ingest” warning or something? How does she digest things, anyway? I mean, food comes in and…where does it go? It has to go somewhere, right? Does she even need food? And why did I only just now think of this?
Stephanie can eat almost anything. Remember, she can scarf up a gallon o’ gravy, she smokes for her health, and her favorite caffeinated beverage is a quintuple shot habanero mocha.
She needs to take in materials for energy, and she needs certain chemicals to maintain her health, so she does need to eat.
Since she’s humanoid, she eliminates waste in a similar fashion to humans.
Yew!!!!!!
Talk about a Hazardous Waste Dump!!!!
I covet that rocket ship…
Get in line. I want one too.
She reminds me of Rosie the Robot in her PJs lol.
I didn’t see it until you mentioned it! You’re absolutely right!
