Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for October 29, 2022

Ha! Your innocent thought may ruin your scheme, easily distracted villain!

Nice Easter eggs in the first panel.

Eh. Looks like this may be that Brainzo’s tricks after all?

It’s just one measly acolyte in a robe, Rip. Punch his lights out and get Jet off of that catafalque, or whatever it is.

Does this mean Dan is a fan of Off the Mark and Gil?

Probably wax fruit and rubber Snickers bars. The fiend!

Hey RJ! Ask him if his refrigerator’s running!

That door wasn’t just kicked open, it was KA-BUST OPEN! Also, love the names on the mail boxes!

KA-JUST IN TIME!

I highly doubt the candy given out by evil overlords is very good. Also, nice shoutout in the first panel.

If Jet was smart (and Awake) she could really foul the villain up by saying, “Maiden?…er..I hate to break this to you…”

(LOVED Uhura’s response to Mind-Altered Sulu in “The Naked Time” when he declared,

“I will protect you Fair Maiden!”

and she responded, “Sorry…NEITHER!”

Ad-libbed and gotten PAST the Network Censors!

Smart villain… He knows the last thing he needs is to have his hideout egged or toilet-papered. That won’t impress any deity.
