Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for January 16, 2020

P1: ♪ “My jump shot takes me higher / My loofah keeps me warm / You should be dancing, yeah / You should be dancing, yeah” ♪

If #12 was a girl, he’d have some body image issues for sure

P1, You’d think the “aggressive” Chris Schuring would at least give the defender an elbow.

P2, Tom “The Lobster Boy” Muench compensates well for his deformed left hand.

P3, So Chris and Alexa’s GPA and ppg are exactly the same? How will they break the tie?

Chris applies what Gil told him in that important get out of class meeting. Drive, draw, dish. Take a charge. Get some strawberries from diving for loose balls. Probably the most coachable kid on the team. He’s a cinch to be voted class best all around or most likely to succeed. I can root for him.

The Madison players are so dumb they need TWO arrows on their shorts to let them know which end to put their legs through.

So he passes to a guy for a highly contested three; How is that a play worthy of that banter on the way back on defense?

Wow, glue guy is really stepping up as a go-to scorer!

Clearly this team is the Madison Corporals.

Number 12 chooses an odd moment to practice his “John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever” impression.

Since when does Madison wear purple? Or do I just not remember seeing them in color? Or does anyone even care? And speaking of caring, if you really care about quality comics, then you have to read today’s issue of Mopped Up Thorp.
