# Sinbad: Friends Come and Go This is a comic strip titled "Sinbad" subtitled "Friends come and go," credited to what appears to be "E. Dirks" or similar (signature partially visible). The strip depicts a dog character (Sinbad) in various scenes with other dogs and people. The narrative appears to show Sinbad's changing relationships and social situations - dogs arriving and departing, interactions around food bowls, play and fighting, and what looks like someone taking away or removing dogs. The joke plays on the phrase "friends come and go" - literally showing multiple dogs appearing and disappearing from Sinbad's life throughout the scenes. It's gentle humor about the transient nature of animal friendships and the domestic chaos of having multiple dogs around.
