Marmaduke Challenge: I win

Well, the Marmaduke Challenge is over. I gave Marmaduke one week to publish a hyper-Marm strip. I am going to make the call: I win.

Over the past week, he hula hooped, engineered a mutiny at his obedience class, visited a fast food restaurant, and installed a fancy glass door on his dog house.

The hula hoop incident:

What the HELL is she talking about? You aren't supposed to jump through it; you are supposed to hula hoop with it. Marmaduke is correct, little girl is wrong. Never a good sign when you are out-thought by a Great Dane. And her shirt says "Puppy Love." Should say "Puppy Brained."

The door incident:

Obviously in response to the alien robot visit earlier in the week. Marm told his sob story to ABC and Ty Pennington and got an extreme makeover. All America was touched by the story of the poor creature called "subhuman" with "primitive housing" by a 1950s-era alien robot. Then Ty and the gang showed up, and things are good. Come back Mr. Alien Robot!

But, all that aside, here's the winning entry:

I knew Marmaduke couldn't go a whole week without some sort of over-the-top hyperactivity. And, as Marc pointed out, they sell petrol in Marmaduke-ville. And are they driving on the left side of the road? Great Dane! Are they British? Sakes alive, I never considered it.

Hurrah for me! lol. Sorry, it's my lack of sleep. Can't last on 3 hrs. of sleep.

I didnt even see the left side of the street observation...Maybe they are getting gas or "Petrol" and need to negotiate a turn into the station?

Ty Pennington is so dreamy!!! Marmaduke doesn't deserve help from him.

Glad you have the character verification now. The spam has been ridiculous. Those bastards will do anything to ruin our lives!!!

Hmmmmmm . . . but the driver of the car is on the left (American) side of the car.

I think this abyss-ville is just a goofy place that's part British, part-U.S. It's Canada!

I'm also glad about character verification! I don't comment too much, but I hate having to read through that crap. I wish they would just leave us alone to make fun of the comics in peace and quiet!
