Silly, space princess. You should know better than to try to sneak past a cat. Especially an english talking, historian, able-to-operate-small-electronics-despite-opposable-thumbs of a cat.
Hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a delicious break! Still a few new pages of Cleo coming up before I take a break of my own for the holidays. Speaking of which, I just wanted to thank all of you for the loads of support each of you have given Cleo this year. It’s been tremendous. All of your comments, retweets, mentions, favouriting, telling your friends, telling people who aren’t you friends, buying the book, the prints… all of these things really mean a lot as I struggle to get each of these pages done in between all of the other work that needs my attention every week. I really can’t express enough how grateful I am that so many of you take the time (and actually enjoy) this little slice of the webcomic pie I’ve sliced out for myself (sorry, my mind (or stomach) is still on Thanksgiving).
And don’t stop! Keep telling people about Cleo. If I can triple my readership, I’ll look into updating more than once a week next year. Which would probably be pretty awesome. Until then, make sure to keep voting for Cleopatra In Space at Top Webcomics. Remember, you can vote once a day! More giant thank yous to those that take the time out to do this as well.
Alright, enough of that. On to page twenty-three…
I love it! And there’s always one smarty pants in the audience who thinks they know the answer! :-)
Really dig this look back into the past, Mike :)
Does the huge furball really have to sit in the front row?
Yeah, I bet it’s REALLY hard to put one over on Khensu. I do have to wonder about him. Cats aren’t really entirely trustworthy in my book …
And, I see that I may have been right about Cleo setting a trend in hairstyles … girl with orange hair, 3rd row back, on the right. Though I don’t see anyone else sporting golden cobras in their hair. LOL.
Cleo, don’t you mean, “Aw, cat!”?
Really diggin this storyarc!
Oh, I love that one girl in the class who has her hand shot up in the air! Look at that posture of know-it-all confidence! :D
Great art. Voted!
How can they hope to sneak past *anyone* in those massive clunky boots…
He’s her teacher?!!!!
There are at least two more kitties in the audience…so Khensu is a normal citizen, not a unique fellow-refugee from ancient Egypt…
Linked over from The Bean, and caught up on the archives. Enjoying it so far!
thanks so much, everyone! really glad you’re enjoying this flashback so far. :)
@hoomi- welcome!
I have done something of this sort in my History classes. Once I spotted a student coming in late and asked her how the concert last night was. She said, “Great, I just got back, erm…oops.”
Great strip.
Very nice Mike. Ancient Egyptians would be proud. They always knew cats where smart, Khensu is just assuming his natural leading role. In their eyes mind you – in mine, dogs are still better, and giraffes are meant to be looked up to.
Lol, the cat’s the teacher! Cat’s rule!
