The problem I feel is he still doesn’t know, or doesn’t think, Walt became a bit of a strong figure recently. He may have more competition than he realizes, assuming Walt runs.
See, a common enemy unites the weak-minded. The rabbit knows this and he set himself up a great villain in the Panda. So now a general election will ride this trust and faith gained in his ousting the “bad guy”.But this style of ladder climbing needs new rungs to continue. New villains, and since the questions of species are setteled with public opinion on his side, the new focus will probably be, “Who WERE you?”The Former Topsiders being the new Boogeyman to exploit.
Oooh… that brings up some questions, like…-has he checked what happened down here while he was up?-Why did they need a council and a mayor in the first place?-Would it not be fun, if the mayor would get elected? I mean people heard him confessing he screwed up and to me he sounded very honest when he said he would do his best in making up for it.
Why give power to people you don’t know when you can give it to ME, the evil person you DO know? Remember, Vote YES for being my personal minions this election day.
My, My, Jacob seems rather chipper at the office.The Rats are still silly walking, the whole council has been brought down, the way it was is no longer the way it is, and Jacob has prepared Editorials to show his case for free and clear elections. No popularity contest there…… no sir. No unkept promises, false hopes, distortion of facts, political spin, and heaven forbid PUNDITS.Walt had it easy with getting his mayor job from the bottom of a box of Cracker Jacks.You think a show down may occur between the Hero of the PEPO Uprising and the Hero of the Milk Three Trial?In the mean time……Holly teeters on the brink of insanity, Linda is now an outcast with no friends, no job, no home, Maude is totally depressed resulting in a unhappy cow so no California Cheese for now. And Wally??? Poor chump is just hanging on for now.I wonder if Angus finished his book?
Dottie mentioned that Walt was “the hero of Pep Cola Stadium”. My guess is that he did something heroic there to help stop the genetic cleansing that was going on right before the war. His actions were apparently enough to get him elected and continually reelected to Mayor even though his actions, until recently, were anything but heroic. Of course part of that may be that nobody else wanted the job.
Jumping from the pan into the fire! They got rid of a flawed dictatorial council for what, democracy? Where the opinionated population vote for those crooks that will claim to do what the voters want while slandering or ridiculing any opposition? Sounds like their headed for the government situation we presently have.
Not exactly a “hero’s welcome”, is it?Then again, it’s no secret that Jacob has had his own agenda. And he is smart enough to know that you don’t have to be the one wearing the crown to be the one who has the most power.Jacob Jackrabbit will not settle for being a figurehead.
Receiving Endtown 1&2 finally, (had to get a card to do online shopping.) Will 3&4 be on Amazon anytime soon? Or did I just miss them? I hope to get about to buying some prints in the future, too… Love the comic, and want our cartoonist to be able to continue!!!
Surf, mr_sherman and suchAfter Linda realized her friend was a waitress.Along comes the smug weasel wrestling well hung (oops scratch that last one) thought of leader of the community Boss Jacob “You can just call me JACK…rabbit. All my friends do.” The area echoed in silence.A small pass of gas was heard in the distance. Causing some about to wrinkle their noses.Maurice turned “AHHHH Zee fresh oder of zee spicy beans.

MOOOOOO!”Linda faced a fork in the road. She thought to herself “How the hell did that fork get in the road?” Picking it up she walked on to an uncertain future.

No one looks at all happy to see jake. I bet his editorials are about as trusty as true propaganda.

Why grab for power when it can be handed to you?And yes, elections are much more sane and logical than the alternatives…

Maybe he wants power without glory, like Murdock?

Sure not “Hey, Jake, happy to see you” at the Examiner…

You would almost think that they knew what happened upstairs, given their “warm” greeting for Jake.

Poor Jake Jackrabbit. Can’t make up his mind whether he’s a political pundit or a dictator.

JJ is thinking bigger and longer term. More like the power behind the throne. Enjoy the benefits, none of the risks

One way for Linda to try to improve conditions in Endtown and gain acceptance is to run for office.

So the Jackrabbit seems smug and satisfied. Maybe from some weasel wrestling? Hard to admit. Try it. Say “weasel wrestling” 3 times fast.
