Alice
on April 23, 2014 at 12:01 amWe don’t see Alice a lot in the Walkyverse, but apparently she was important enough to Billie that she was her Maid of Honor at her wedding.
(She does exist in the Dumbiverse, and you may finally see her there this summer.)
WOO FILTERS
You haven’t even had a beer yet, Billie, how is your vision getting blurry already?
That last panel is actually pretty neat, in an early Willis kind of way.
Almost reminiscent of Peanuts.
I really hope that, somewhere out there, there’s an unpublished Peanuts storyline in which Pigpen offers Snoopy a Brewski.
AAAAA! Alice is fading away!!
Damn you, Marty McFly!
Am I the only person who feels uncontrolable blind fury at the utterance of “Brewski”?
Why?
(Not being dismissive, genuinely curious)
It could be worse. In New Zealand we have an anti-drinking campaign where it’s referred to as “beersies”.
You are not alone.
I am shocked, shocked to find drinking going on in this establishment.
Your beer, sir.
Oh, thank you very much.
Everybody out at once!
Blurry….memories of the party night that went down the night Ruth killed herself, doing the rescue act?
I do like how the last panel focuses on Billie questioning getting drunk again after everything that’s happened without really saying anything. You just let the visuals do all the storytelling.
“Yes or no?”
loved that
So, apparently it is not possible to simply enjoy a beer without getting hammered?
Not for Billie it isn’t, she’s a recovering alcoholic who quit cold turkey. That means no alcohol whatsoever for her no matter how badly she wants it.
Huh, Alice looks like Future Walkyverse Billie without the glasses.
Alice has now made her arrival in the Dumbiverse!
When I saw Alice here she immediately reminded me of Doctor Doe from sexplanations on Youtube.
