Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for March 18, 2014
Transcript:
TNT: Rip, want in on some pizza? Spur's buying. Spur: Only 'cuz I have a coupon from Papa Murphy's! Rip Haywire: I don't have time to bake it myself! I just got back from the train wreck in Elk Canyon! This was all I found of the Highwayman. Spur: Good lawd, the wreck vaporized everythin' but the skin of his ugly mug? Rip Haywire: It's a mask, Watson! That is, unless his skin was labeled "made in china"!

I’m glad the Highwayman is presumed alive. He has the makings of a top-notch recurring for for Rip & Co. complete with mystery of an unknown face. Looking forward to another encounter and grander plans!

Uncle Spur does seem like an idiot with a bunch of bad habits.

Face it, man. You don’t know where the highwayman is.

Dick Tracy does a good job of using recurring villains. That strip never lets details like death stop them from re-introducing a good bad guy.

I would say it’s time to sit down and do some serious pondering……..over bacon and whiskey of course.

Love the on-goings, but it’s sure hard to believe that Rip didn’t train the Highwayman properly…

What scares me is that the mask is most likely still an improvement to his real face.

Papa John’s is better than Papa Murphy’s… mind you, yesterday was St. Paddy’s day… and if there’s a coupon…

Why could the guy not be Chinese? They sometimes make good villains. Look at Ming the Merciless.

I’d say over a billion people have skin “Made in China.”
