Not for one second did I think she assumed he was dead. They have been together forever. I think she went to cover him up for comfort and just got silly and covered his face. Surely since he won’t take anything to relieve his symptoms, while he is prone in a recliner she can hear his breathing all over the house. This comic is to make us laugh, and I don’t understand why so many people see evil in a loving wife. Earl isn’t always the best, either. imagine him waiting on Opal if she got sick.

Crane’s been drawing Opal kinda mean lately. I don’t remember her being quite so hard-hearted a few years ago.

Perhaps Opal is anxious to collect the insurance money.

If it’s gastrointestinal flu, you wish you were dead.

No, you’re not, Earl. But Opal will make you wish you WERE.

Opal don’t rush things. Husbands die before their wives because WE WANT TO!. Let Earl do so in his own good time.

Really Opal, just get a longer blanket that covers his feet and let him rest. Those stockinged feet are bound to be cold.

Considering how she treats Earl, Opal is probably looking forward to being a widow.
