Mark & Zark by Dan Moynihan
Comic description: The Zark report Wrap-Up. Zark rips off his fake clown nose and blonde wig. Zark says, “Well, that wraps up my first week among the Earthlings, and I learned a lot…like how annoying Earthling hair is. It swishes in your face! And it overheats your brain. Fling! Zark tosses the wig. Zark draws a spiral motion near his head and says, “That must be why Earthlings have so many strange ideas.” The wig starts to fly away like a bird.
I'm especially drawn to that adorable Hama this week :) But all so fun, as always!!
