    I am *incredibly* confused. Luckily for you, it’s confusion to the point of laughter.

    And now, the unfortunate word hobo has a grip on the language and can better himself.

    I always thought that any palindrome that uses random exclamations and choppy unnatural sounding phrases should really be considered palindromes proper.

      or rather, should not really be considered palindromes proper.

        Agreed; but palindrome proper or no, this strip belies impressive wit (or too much idle time).

    From the last frame towards the centre, all the speech bubbles, when read backwards, read “backward is as it is”.

    Did anyone else get really annoyed by the extra A from as??

      Yes. It has an extra a, hence, not a proper palindrome. Sorry, but this isn’t as clever as it is making itself out to be.

        Actually, the “extra ‘a'” is simply the middle letter, so it’s in the same position forwards as it is backwards.

        Well, actually, the t is the middle. The a from one “as” corresponds to the a from the other.

    Took me a minute. Figured it had to be a palindrome because it didn’t flow as well as most of the dialogue in these comics. Awesome.
