Brutus’ mother and father are deceased and and have never been characters in the strip, Macushlalondra. Uncle Ted (his father’s brother) is the only character from his past who appears in the strip. Uncle Ted takes it upon himself to be there for Brutus, since his parents can’t be. :)
Ha, ha, Brent Rosenthal! Brutus will take a win any way he can get it. ;)
