Endtown by Aaron Neathery for August 21, 2020

Why does this feel too familiar. =(

This must be like a conversation on the Titanic. “Didn’t you bring up the ice?” “I thought YOU were supposed to bring up the ice!!!”

Uh oh, so there wasn’t a board on that window. And the white lines were from the light on the lighthouse?

Let’s agree to disagree!

Both is both. Who says she’s the leader? Why is she the leader? That said, why didn’t Wally mention this earlier?

On another note, here’s hoping that perhaps at least some of the toothbrushes want to talk to our motley crew.

I am tired of all aliens, all mutants, all topsiders, all anybody-other-than-ourselves, is bad and needs to be killed.

All along of this story arc, dr Amesworth’s sense of humor is … NOT funny! But at least she has one.

Well at least they’re having fun with it. Also that topsider will be his new buddy, or at least she will survive through the end.

All that emotional energy is feeding the dittos — that’s the good part of this. Now, expand the force field to include all the markings, and get with getting the heck out of there!

Great! Two Neros playing the fiddle (or lyre as the case may be) while around them, Rome burns! :/

You’re all lousy! Stop bugging me!

Didn’t ask, brought to task.

She’s only the leader ’cause she yelled the loudest.

Another brush with death..

“Fuller Brush Man. Can I interest you in our new products to help you clean the walls?”

Focus kids…..that really doesn’t matter now.

Did anyone think to yell, “TIME-OUT!!”????

This reminds me of real life – everybody blaming each other and nothing getting done.

Sigh. Sounds a lot like our Congress.

Cracked Cat is gonna crack.

Children! Children! Pay attention!

Let’s just agree that everyone is lousy and that this is everyone’s fault.

It’s not unreasonable for Wally to assume Dr. Amesworth knew that the toothbrush entities could climb walls. She has almost constantly been touting herself as being much more knowledgeable than the rest of them and not very willing to listen to any of their input. Until now.

You know, when they were dropping that ball of pencils out the window, their wall-climbing ability was the first thing that occurred to me. You’d think Wally would have flashed on that at the time since he’d seen them do it.

It’s always a clever strategy to get into an argument when the enemy is approaching…

Well, i would be very surprised to learn that they had been able to secure the windows, considering they had to tunnel to get to this location (it would have been out of reach previously.) And considering all the other problems they’re having with these things, the ability to scale walls would have been nothing more than a minor detail (they shapeshift! They regenerate! They’re a whole planet’s worth of insane zombies that can’t be killed by headshots!)

So now what? Marx shows up and does a deus-ex-machina to get them out of this mess?

I love the last panel. So many things are going on and it seems that Allan sees something.

How can he ask if he doesn’t know that he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know?

Now now boys and girls. Stop this bickering or I’ll turn this ditto-powered-invisible-cube-thing around.

They’re in some sort of tunnelling forcefield: won’t it just tunnel away any toothbrush zombies that try to get in?

Best to swap roles.

Amesworth has most of the critical need-to-know information such as: 1) clarity on multiverse 2)how the portals work 3) where they are and where they need to be. Without her, knowledge Wally, Alan, and Duffy would be back in disintegrating Eden; maybe saved by the Marx Patrol…maybe not. So, makes sense that Amesworth is leading.

Amen and amen, Cheapskate0

…a time and place for everything…

This is supposed to be a happy occasion! Let’s not argue and bicker over who’s leading who…

I hate to draw your attention back to the situation guys but, Murderous toothy cleaners!
