Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for June 16, 2010

Why do I have this strange feeling that Cassie Corman in 2010 is about to become Molly Kinsella in 2009?

Will Curtis turn out to be another techno-geek? We haven’t seen a geek since Valerie turned down The Ghost for band geek Dione. Geeks do well at Milford, probably because the jocks are so woeful.

Curtis is more than a geek, evidenced by the unicorn on his shirt, and I don’t mean animal activist either. He is a happy guy!

For a moment I thought Steve Luhm was coming back into the strip, after all he is an expert at everything.

Marty Moon as director now that would be a hoot.

It appears that Neal and Ron have lifted a Nepoleon Dynamite clone for their Curtis charachter. Like to see Mimi coach the MILFord HS Happy Hands Team. Big July comming up! Kip

Curtis appeared last spring shooting video for a youtube prank.

“We’ve already bothered the video guy?” They hired and paid the dude, that’s not “bothering” him.

This is about as blatant as it gets as far as character ripoffs are concerned but this could be very entertaining. Love the unicorn shirt.

If they really wanted to rip off Napolean, the kid’s name would be Kip, and he would be wearing a t-shirt with a Liger on it.

Only so long until a Pedro character, Deb and Uncle Rico are introduced to the MILFord family.

I’d say there’s about a 100 percent chance Curtis is now sporting some massive wood.

Why is Cassie (P2) getting quite plain or even ugly in appearance? Hasn’t she been playing sports enough, and so is developing a latent double chin? Or how come her neck length keeps changing?

It’s an ET kinda thing. The more interested she is, the longer her neck grows…

in P2, so, are Derek and Cassie on the Mezzanine Level of the Milford High School Foyer?

There must be budget cut backs, they couldnt afford to buy an Exit sign, I guess they could only buy an “E”

I suspect Curtis’s unicorn is like Dilbert’s tie.

I am waiting for “Curtis’s” first tater tot reference.

I think the word balloon in P3 is the wrong size.

Cassie - “Curtis! Hold up! … I want to karate chop your shoulder!”

And P1: “Soft” what? Dare I ask?

I’m sorry, but any high school kid who looks that stereotypically geeky and who wears a unicorn shirt is just begging for heartache.
