Enjoy This Classic Tom the Dancing Bug Vintage 2013 Every Thursday Panels from the annals of the Tom the Dancing Bug archive Check back every Friday for a fresh, brand new Tom the Dancing Bug! the Tom the Dancing Bug Comic Strip There circles the sun another Earth, a Counter-Earth, whose diametrically opposed orbit keeps it forever beyond our detection.
