Can someone please tell me what happened to his hat? There has to be a good story behind it.
I’m curious if that is a planned use of the government ugly olive green for the walls? It has to be the most revolting color on the planet, and a LOT of it was used on military housing and civilian municipal buildings over the past 50 years. Nice touch here, if intentional
also: towel.
Mr. Troutman, you are great and I love your comic.
Why, thank you!
BASIL! Why would you let your license expire! It’s not like your weird body-magnet effect is going to go away! Besides, how else are you going to pay the bills?
He was probably letting it expire before he finds out his wife killed somebody.
You know, because of the unicorns in her eyes. Dead give away. x3
We’re really getting to know a lot of secretaries lately. None of them seem particularly enthusiastic about their jobs either.
I wouldn’t say this one isn’t enthusiastic about her job. A big part of being a secretary is gatekeepering. (I don’t think that’s, y’know, an actual word, but try to power through it.)
I would have assumed “gatekeeping” would be what you meant
Just so long as she doesn’t meet up with the guy doing all that keymastering…
Mother pusbucket!
HumalaDuck… you have my old avatar.
I believe it is local custom that WE DUEL!
(to the deaaaath….)
Sorry, but my doctor told me that dueling to the death was bad for my sciatica. Maybe some other time.
I think this is more Flint Basil, a guy who has a power of Body Magnet has shown up in front of her.
Now she might not know about this ability… but you tend to get a bit of a vibe from people like that.
