This week's strip has a "5th Panel" you can only find on Patreon.
Bug Boy®-Adventures of a SuperB Hero on His Day Off
Christmas in July ©2024 Amy D
1st Panel- The backyard of the Bug Bungalow. Seymour is in the foreground cooking something on the grill. Bug Boy is in the middle-ground at the picnic table, playing around with a radio. There is a blue tablecloth on the table. Will is in the background walking out of the Bug Bungalow with 2 large trays carrying plates, food, and condiments.
Narrator: We find our heroes grilling in the backyard on a lazy summer afternoon.
Music playing from the radio: –ollow me in merry measure ♫ Fa-la-la-la-la, La-la…
Seymour: Christmas music? It’s the middle of July.
2nd Panel- A close up of the back of the radio with Bug Boy behind it, still playing with the dials. Seymour can be seen in the background setting a platter of hotdogs and hamburgers onto the picnic table. You can still see a bit of music playing from the radio, but can barely make it out.
Bug Boy: Yeah, I want everyone to look back on this years from now and consider this a Christmas strip.
Final Panel- Seymour sitting at the picnic table with a plate of potato salad in front of him. He’s also holding a hamburger with a few bites taken out of it and talking with his mouth full.
Seymour: Ah, the Die Hard effect.
