Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for January 23, 2013

Peacock blocked again.

Looks like El DeBarge needs to find her shooting rhythm of the night

OK, that profile drawing in the first panel has been recycled dozens of times. I’m not sure it isn’t a leftover from the Lini Verde days.

Someone please explain what “topical teen oriented issue” this is. Other than belive in yourself… not a dumb bird.

The spirit of the Peacock lives in all of us…within our heart. While shaving Mia, look in the mirror. Where’s Ransom when you need him? The tat slap replaced by the……ohh, I’m tempted.

Did M.C. Escher draw P3? I can’t tell if that kid is inside or outside the car.

Just wondering fellow Gilfans if anyone else has the same problem with their peacock. Sometimes, like on the way in to work, the peacock will stick up its head and I’m not sure what to do with it. Other times, when I tell a woman about the peacock and she really needs to see it, we try to find it and the peacock just won’t do what it’s supposed to. We’re both getting frustrated because Friday night is coming up and seeing the peacock would be satisfying to both of us. Any suggestions? I tried getting a coffee mug with my name on it, but that didn’t seem to help.

With all due respect (and props) to “Have Mop/Steve Luhm,” P1 – That’s what she said.

Despite any “that’s what she saids”, what’s up with his backpack in P2? Has he had that since he was in preschool?

I wondered the same thing about the backpack. At first I thought it was a bomb in the form of several sticks of dynamite.
