Alternate Alley Oop Chapter 17 “Deader Than Dead”(32) 3/4/2013 Monday
Panel One
Brucutu rode in the small car while the V-raptors were on each side as they passed the series of flashing red lights blinked as they ran past. (Brucutu is kept in direct contact with the little insect-like spy devices as to when the door will be opened and how many on the other side.)
Panel Two
On the other side the soldiers in their blackout camo are ready along with a Bradley fighting vehicle backing them up, some on their stomachs,others on knees, and still others standing so that they can get a layered field of fire. Things are tense but these men and women are professionals and ready to serve their country against any enemies, foreign or domestic. And here today vampires.
Panel Three
“Reporting for duty general!” Said former NCIS agent now full member of Op. Sunshine (anti-Dr. Dark task force) Nobu McCarthy and her Navy escorts saluted. “Why are you still here?” Gen. Mann was mystified. “The biggest storm of the century is bearing down on the entire East coast,∞ leaving would be delayed indefinitely then the lock down.” “Oh, I see, forgot about that ‘storm of storms.’ ‘Beulah’ it is called.”
Panel Four
“Might as well stay here in the worm hole launch area.” “Roger that!” She and the Navy escort said in unison. - ∞ From Florida to Maine and every state inbetween, worse storm in 150 years. An estimated 3X more powerful than “Sandy” was when it struck over a decade ago. In all 22 states are affected over a weeks time, wouldn’t be equalled till 2058.
Good morning Benders and all. Guz has grabbed his “rhythem stick” and is going to give the dinos the bopping they deserve. Maybe he should bop the Wizer first.
King Guz will be rallying the Moovians on his way to help Alley. Wizer will be a no-show (gotta catch his breath, don’ ‘cha know!). By the time they all get there, Alley will have bopped the red Rex and all the others will have dispersed.
Oops! Sorry if I’ve spoiled it for everybody! We’ll find out if I am a “Seer of the future” probably next week.
I pulled out an old paperback that I bought 30 years ago – Alley Oop in the Sawall Chronicles. This is pre-time macnine and early Hamlin work from 1936. At the start of the story, Dinny has been hypnotized by the Wizer- a similar theme to the Benders’ current story. But Foozie and Guz break the spell by hanging Dinny by his neck from a cliff until part of it breaks off and Dinny comes tumbling down. The story then veers into Alley and Ooola’s trip into Sawalla and their efforts to return to Moo through a swamp of dinosaurs. There is broad humor in the story but none of the inane silliness that the Benders bring. Is the current version of Oop just another example of the dumbing down of current society? I don’t know what the answer is but if any of the Benders could just read this story (or the first time travel story currently running in the Comics Revue) they would realize what so many of us have been saying for so long. This strip deserves better than the Benders. I just hope it outlasts their tenure on this strip,
Wow McDuck, you brought back some memories. Now I am looking over my old paperbacks. My favorites were from Robert Howard, Lin Carter, Fritz Leiber, Talbot Munday, John Norman, and the ubiquitous Edgar Rice Burroughs. Some of them only cost 50-cents … new.
One of the things I loved about the Hamlin version was each 4 panel comic had a caption. And also the very creative insults that Oop and Guz would always hurl at each other. LOL
Alley Oop is the classic caveman comic strip revolving around the irrepressible Alley Oop, who travels from prehistoric Moo all the way to the 21st century in his friend Doc Wonmug's time machine.

Just the larger sized recap. King Guz won’t be enough unless he is really agile.

Oop’s got his hands full! He could use some help!

And what does Guz hope to accomplish by himself with one old man helping him? Shouldn’t he be calling out the army?

Right, like waiting for the cops while burglars pillage.
