It's a Sunday strip on a Wednesday!

About the strip itself... I don't know. I feel like I should like it, it's recalling a Calvin and Hobbes device that I always found endearing (the way the two of them will do something ridiculous, look at each other in silence, and then bust out laughing), but I just can't like it. I don't hate it, either, I just... feel nothing. And I can't quite figure out why.

Although the penultimate laughter panel, when taken out of context, rather looks like they just murdered somebody with that bat and dove into complete insanity as a result... and suddenly this strip is awesome.

All but the last two panels I really like in this strip. This sort of comic is rare for DCS.

Heck, you can even include the two panels before it:

Millie has a white tip to her tail despite having a black tip later on in the strip's life.

Not criticising, just statin'.
