"B IS FOR BARNABY"


Issue #3: "B IS FOR BARNABY"
According to Speech Therapist Dr. Alighieri, The letter B is for Boat. Loaker has other ideas entirely....


Notes and references: Despite being in the title of this strip, Barnaby does not appear. Although he is clearly on his brother's mind. Dr. Alighieri's surname is a direct reference to Dante Alighieri, author of The Divine Comedy. The issue was inspired by creator Gary Mackean's own childhood, Some of which was spent in speech therapy. The strip was purposely made longer to show Loaker attempting to work out what the letter B means to him.
