    Alternate Alley Oop Chapter 16 “Earth 2 Crisis”(5) 12/5/2012


    Panel One


    Oscar had been test firing his assault rifle to get the feel of it so when he needs it, so it won’t feel strange in his hands. Fumbling at a crucial moment could easily mean death. As their drill instructor hammered into them over several weeks. “Know your weapon, and always be on yellow alert to go to red alert. Black alert is screaming crazy and will always get you killed.”


    Panel Two


    Oscar liked walking with Lola around the general area, looking at an over head view map for referencing. Lola didn’t use it or need it. Oscar observed she seemed to orientate to the geomagnetic North and South poles. He’ll need to mention it to the big domes back at TexComm base.


    Panel Three


    Lola didn’t want a gun or even a canteen. She did keep her homemade bolas wrapped around her shapely waist, she had first constructed them on that alien planet full of ravenous monsters with Alley Oop for several frantic days. Oscar also observed that animals that would stay away from him or the others would come an alight on her hand or finger. It was uncanny.

    This why Alley needlessly got into trouble.

    I’ll bet a nickel it’s Carol writing this story. Day after day of blah-blah-blah.

    So when does Alley rip the arms of the Homeland Security goons?

    I don’t think the FBI would hang a sign on the door announcing their investigation. Nor would any one as sympathetic as the guard have her job for very long. Still, its getting kind of fun here.

    @Jack Straw

    FBI guy #1: Let’s start this investigation.

    FBI guy #2: Okay, first let me hang the “FBI Investigation In Progress” sign on the door. You know, so people know.

    Gweedo, you taught me how to zoom with the scroll wheel. Now, please teach me how to reply to a message and have it display the message you are replying to like your previous message does.

    Good Morning Benders and all. A very slow day indeed. I
    think the door should have a red light on overhead, to
    show a investigation in progress.

    where has carole been for the last 11 years? this is what she thinks security procedures are like today?
    could this ridiculous and excruciating sideshow be dragged out any longer… wait, yes it will.

    So there is not a way to do it automatically. You have to physically copy and paste the comment. That is what I often do. I was just wondering how the statement “Jack Straw said, about 1 improvised sign ago” was inserted before your post.. I assumed that there was some automatic way that reposted the message I was replying to.

    Tomorrow’s strip: Panel one: the security person opens the door. Panel two: she walks through the door. Panel three: she closes the door. (Or am I advancing the plot too quickly?)

    I see two weeks on this story line alone. Not the way I would do it.
