Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for August 22, 2020

You’d think Dutch would know better by now.

Dutch is in for a big surprise when Rip shows up.

Perhaps Rip KA-jumped and KA-hitched a ride on a passing rocket which opened a parachute while the other rocket KA-crashed.

He’ll have found a parachute somewhere and pulled the rip-cord that keep Rip from RIP.

Rip escaped death so many times, it should be established by now that him and death are just an oxymoron…

When did Dutch get so fatalistic? I think he must have gotten knocked in the head one too many times.

OBVIOUSLY, Rip jumped off the plummeting missile just before it crashed, and landed safely in the water.

‘Toots’…Good one Dan!Haven’t heard that in a while! Thanks!

Ka-PANCAKED!

He landed on two passing Seagulls and flew home KA

Rip may go Jason Bourne for the next story arc.

No waffle fate for Rip!

Seems like Dutch has been losing faith in Rip lately. Or maybe Dutch is feeling his mortality.

KA-SLIM CHANCE!

I wouldn’t rule out Rip yet, Dutch. He’s survived worse scrapes than this.

A wise father knows his son… Dutch needs to spend a lot more time with Rip. I mean a… lot… more.

Everyone calm down – the cartoonist is looking after Rip and somehow they will collect enough of him to feed a couple of pancakes to and he will be right as rain….

Okay, don’t sugar coat it Dutch. Tell me exactly what you think.

Oh No! K-penultimate … the end of the Comix?

Who is Breezy going to hook up with now that RIP is R.I.P?

Dutch must have taken a page out of the Howard Stark handbook on raising insecure kids.

Dutch: “Look Breezy, Rip is flat as a pancake, little bitty shark food!”

Howard Stark to Tony: “You’re no Captain America, I worked with the guy! That guy used to routinely jump out of airplanes without a chute! What can you do? So you made a robot at nine, and entered MIT before your teens!”
