A Baby Blues Collection #39

The 39th Baby Blues collection from Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott captures the beautiful chaos of family life perfectly in its title alone — Multi-Tasking — and the cover drives the point home with Wanda stirring a pot, holding up a phone, and fielding an explosion of question-mark bubbles while Zoe, Hammie, and a peeking toddler all clamor for attention at once. It's the kind of cheerfully frantic scene that will feel instantly, painfully familiar to any parent who has ever tried to cook dinner and answer seventeen questions simultaneously. Collected here in 2022, this is a wonderfully generous helping of the strip's signature warmth and wit.
