Per Downpuppy’s wish, Mr. N. Box has at least taken a break today. We can also be thankful that Rivera saved us from the 2 or 3 panels that would have been dedicated to getting Squirrelly Sandy’s name from Honest Ernest. So we happily move on.
Or we don’t. Instead, we have some meaningless gabbing about weirdo this and that, with Cherry getting defensive. That is to say, some relatively trivial dialog takes place, while Cherry harkens back to the bear she used to play with when Mark first met her and Doc in the original strip. She has certainly had better luck with bears than Mark, who doesn’t get much respect from them. But at least I get my wish as Rivera introduces us to a new character in Cherry’s Lost Forest community.
