Happy Fourth of July–in advance!
Today’s gag is a revamp of a comic that Mike Pascale and I did together years ago. In humor, when it comes to text, shorter is usually better. But I think this longer version does a better job of setting up the joke. I hope you enjoy it.
I’ll be back with a new comic for the actual Fourth of July.
