Yesterday’s Candorville by Darrin Bell paid tribute to the late Bob Thaves who created Frank & Ernest.  The comic depicts Frank and Ernest as angels above two homeless people asking if they could share the alley because, “Ernie’s allergic to clouds.”

According to E&P:

“‘Frank & Ernest’ was one of the first strips I remember ever reading, and it was an inspiration to me,” Bell told E&P. “Bob Thaves was one of the people I’d always hoped to meet, but never did.”
