Alley Oop Is Everywhere

I have a lot of comics to get through from both the papers and the web so let's get going.
This is a webcomic called Autumn Lake. I love the artwork and find it reminescent of Ernie Bushmiller, creator of Nancy.

I don't know what's funnier: the bad joke the ghost is trying to make or the woman getting upset that he's not the "future ghost" he claims to be.

So, so true. Just...so, so true.

Pig is now leaning toward becoming a cannibal. I'm all for it. I want to see Pig eat a ham sandwich or something. I wonder if Rat has ever given him one. Rat would do that, you know.

And here we are. Alley Oop is now 75. Time to die now.

Oop makes a special guest appearance in today's B.C.. So now I really am confused by the strip's placement in history.

Oop is also mentioned in today's Born Loser. I can see how Wilberforce could be confused because Oop is a caveman from the prehistoric ages and he's just now turning 75? I'm with Wilberforce: "Whaaaaaaaat?"
