1984, 1985, 1989, 1992, 2006
Hi everybody!
Well, it’s that time of year. No, not Halloween. Halloween time was in September for newspaper cartoonists. (Although there’s still time to eat more candy corn and watch “Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein!”) Mid-October is when I start thinking seriously about Holiday season ideas. To help get in the spirit, I’ll probably listen to Vince Guaraldi’s music for “A Charlie Brown Christmas” later today. That always helps!
Here are our strips from today’s date, tomorrow’s date, and Sunday’s. They include a few more gags from the Drabble family’s visit to an art gallery.

i’m surprised you didn’t start thinking of christmas cartoons in august, when the decorations were out.
That's the nice thing about being in a field where the hard work has to be done in advance of the Holiday Season rather than during the Holiday Season. You get to sit back and enjoy it while the cashiers and department store Santas are going nuts. :D
