Transcript:
Rip: This has got to be River Jack's hideout. I think I just heard someone singing 'yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.' Good thing I wore my crocs! They're ideal for nighttime skulking! - Bliss! Bliss: R-Rip?!? Uhhh - Oh, Rip, is it really you? Don't let go of me - don't ever let go of me. Rip: I'm a man of action, Bliss - sooner or later I'll have to let you go to punch people.

I have to agree with Veridian…..real men don’t wear crocs. My wife owns three pairs…..enough said.

The only Crocs Rip would wear are made from real crocodiles— which Rip had to convince to give them up the hard way.

@ Dan Thompson. Thanks for providing the link yesterday. Volume 2 has been ordered. Since I seem to be on a roll here, when will volume three be available? Web pages are great, (that’s how I discovered Rip) but I still like paper for comics. Besides, the creators need to make a buck somewhere!!

@ Michael McMillan. And I’m sure the crocodile Rip got them from appreciates how Rip is putting them to good use.

At that point John McClain would be running around in his bare feet on broken glass.

Dan—what a great strip==you’ve brought back the adventure news paper comics of the 30’s and 40s—and with a wonderful touch of humor—Thanks a million!

Is it me, or is Bliss becoming suspiciously clingy? If her eyes weren’t closed, I’d suspect she had that old ball-and-chain look in he eye! :-) Looking forward to payday so I can order your books at last!

Dear Dan, recent Funky Footwear Folderol notwithstanding, I’m a Huge Fan of Rip and Co. and can’t wait to start Avidly Collecting this Strip (May it Rival the “Complete Calvin and Hobbes” or the Gutenburg Bible in Scope!)
