Cleopatra’s Hats

Seriously, just how many tiny minis does Suzanne have?  It’s more every time I see her at a convention and she’s been cranking these things out for at least the last ten years.  This is another good one, and all she has time for this time around is an extended setup for a pretty decent joke.  A young woman is trying out hats with a male friend, who can’t think of a non-offensive way to say that the hats are awful.  They finally decide to ask the opinion of the cashier, and no, I’m not going to ruin the big joke of the book.  In the meantime Suzanne manages to draw all kinds of hats, and she’s one of those wonderful artists who seem to spend more time on the backgrounds than some people do on their whole comics.  Worth checking out, as most of these are, and I do still have that pile o’ minis available from her in the online store, you know.  Just one set though, so if you snooze you will, in fact, lose.  $.50
