In honor of April Fool's Day, we are taking part in "Operation Switcheroo 2021*."

Since the Great Comic Switcheroo of 1997, newspaper and online comic writers have perpetrated April Fools pranks on their readers by drawing each others comics, drawing the same comic as each other, or having their characters take over the other strip.

Special thanks to "Your Brain on Facts" podcast for orchestrating all the fun. You can find them at http://yourbrainonfacts.com/ or wherever you enjoy your podcasts.
