Clovis’ zinger here to end the strip goes among the greatest sick burns of the Bobbinsverse, I feel. Right up there with “Are you two on the lead paint diet????”
Neil, I am very sorry to say that one of the rules of Steeple is that no one wears pyjamas. Not Maggie, not Brian, not even Mrs Clovis. It keeps things exciting for the audience. There will be no pyjama tops. I’m sorry. It’s part of my deal with the Dark Horse. Mike Mignola and Jeff Lemire have the same thing. No pyjamas, not ever.
I am beginning to suspect our Junior Power Ranger is not actually an alien. Or if he is, then his alien species wakes up with a full bladder and has to dash to the toilet/loo/wc/head (or whatever they call it on his planet, possibly “Gxzkvrl”) first thing, just like humans do.
Maggie points accusingly, but she can’t get the “j’accuse” sound effect to appear the way Lottie can. She doesn’t yet have the moral authority of Zola attacking the anti-Dreyfusards.
Nice, now a panty shot too. You really are going for the mangaka effect! Keep up the great work, Sensei!
Ms. Clovis took this situation better than I expected
You can see that with Maggie she is almost like a mother

And this is why I love her♡.
That girl’s got enough eyes tattooed on her to be a Lemony Snicket villain
“There he blows!” with the double pointing fingers.
I cherish this stuff.
Is it an accident that the arms of the snowman on Ms Clovis’ (unduly festive) apron look like inverted crosses?
It probably is… right?
That’s what I came in to say 😀
I work hard at this stuff!!!!
Is that a yes or a no?
To be fair to Mrs C, Mags probably could have kept her bra on.
I can’t reccommend sleeping in a bra, but a vest or pyjama jacket wouldn’t hurt.

Hmmm so that confirms the astral casualty isn’t just a kid wearing pyjamas. Interesting

Mags’ face in panel one gives me joy. Reminds me of Ren of Ren and Stimpy!

And she says “shit” in the vicarage.
Jack Hughes!
Gotta say it. Mrs Clovis’s character has quite a bit more depth than Penrose or Pendennis.
Agreed.
Are those skull-patterned panties? Might need to steal that idea…
I see white animals, maybe cats? Hind legs and tails.
What a tragic waste of the morning coffee. I am aghast. Mrs. Clovis has some penance of her own to do, I think.
