I think this is the first strip where it is established that Phillipe is five, but I am unceratain.
idsyen » pro 1 years ago
I believe this is the first explicit mention, though the shift in characterization can be seen much earlier.

It's interesting how Lyle can be a dick even to a five-year old child.
chaesar » pro 2 years ago
Most people would be like that after draining a fifth of whiskey.
stuart » neu 2 years ago
Reciprocally, Lyle is like that after drinking 5 of whiskey.

25 bottles of Jack on the wall, 25 bottles of Jack... Take one down, pass it around-- SOMEBODY CALL AN AMBULANCE

When that happens, there will be something wrong.

Even in imaginary death Philippe is too polite to call out by name the guy that killed him...

Dammit that was so what I was about to say.

Lyle is true to himself - but he should still try to curb his attitude around Philippe

Look how weird Lyle looks. those arms... THOSE ARMS. You've come a long way, Onstad.
deusoma » neu 2 years ago
Those knives?
jaredwilde » neu 1 years ago
These knives! And arms
gunsofray » neu 8 months ago
Those arms hold those knives.

In Phillipe's mind newspapers print reports of events on the same day they occur and services occur just a day after death. Bless.
dougthehead » neu 2 years ago
And the services are held at The Cemetery.

I love the capitalization of "Shove It" to the point where I feel like maybe it should not be legal.

I could never get over the fact that Lyle's mostach ALWAYS looked like a oversized mouth to me. I couldn't shake it for ages. Like looking at the vase and not the faces.
ovenface » neu 2 years ago
Because it was a mouth in the beginning! Look at the cast photo. you were right.
tfaironpirate » neu 2 weeks ago
Dude, if I get that thing now where people tell me stuff like this, and suddenly I realize it for the first time, but then can NEVER look at it normal again, I'm going to knock your teeth out.
woodenteeth » neu 2 weeks ago
Please see my screen-name. You can't threaten me.

that's what killed andy warhol.

panel one- lyle is littering with such INTENSITY.

panel two- lyle is calmly pointing out to philipe that he would prefer it if the otter were to, instead of delivering moral judgments on his character, in fact Shove it.

panel three- philippe's "shocked expression!" lines are still hovering above his head.

panel four- services will be held in the cemetery.

Phliippe is feeling absolute despair in that last panel.
tfaironpirate » neu 2 weeks ago
Never since Snoopy Balls has such despair been felt.
harletron » neu 2 years ago
It's a swoon, Phillipe is swooning like a late 18th century fop. all such a "my word!" and "goodness gracious.."
retinarow » neu 2 years ago
Phillipe was 5.
a-halter » neu 2 years ago
One of my all time favorite's. Phillipe's imagination is a goldmine of extremely simple and nearly perfect material.
lux » neu 1 years ago
what is more tragic than a five-year-old imagining (and feeling) anguish so hard it sends you to the grave?
solobuttons » pro 1 years ago
I imagine that it just broke his little heart
steerpike66 » neu 1 years ago
Philippe is dead and he's having a housewarming! for shame.
kikineko » neu 1 years ago
Now what happens if we say this to all 5 year-old kids? I imagine how the results are like...
capnroblivious » pro 10 months ago
It's somehow worse here that he's mean to Philippe than when he was very recently trying to detail his plan to kick Jesus.
greenkoolayd » neu 9 months ago
5 year olds are such drama queens.
lolsworth » neu 2 months ago
Lyle, you bastard.
tttt2 » neu 3 weeks ago
