Wednesday, July 8, 2009 Marmaduke Analyzed


Tired of Phil's whining, Marmaduke decides to bury him.

Marmaduke is apparently trying to bury Phil like a large cat turd. This is the only thing in this comic that makes sense.

Phil appears to have initiated sort of project next to the Winslow's house. It would appear that Phil has the intent to irrigate his whole yard to plant crops. Or maybe he wants to build some lengthy driveway all the way to his back fence. Or it could be a canal, or even a landing strip. Who knows? All we can be certain of is that Marmaduke will mess it up and Phil will do nothing but whine.

In this strip, Phil is standing behind the dog with his foot on a shovel doing absolutely no work. Nonetheless, he takes no steps to move himself out of the way of the flying dirt. The message here is that, since Phil already has a shovel, he should just bury his head in shame.
