Here is what Dave had to say about this page:
The "Spike's a good dog" line I still like a lot.
Just a page later, I had lost that quality that separates a good picture
of Groucho Marx from a picture of a guy with painted-on eyebrows and
moustache. Panel 2
really needed to be the same as panel 3 on the previous page [with the eyebrows
pitched a little higher and the eyes a little wider: feigning empathy) instead
the look is too languid and Groucho never held a cigar like that in his life.
Panel 4 is pretty good though.
