Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for February 03, 2021

I was kidnapped by mimes once.

They did unspeakable things to me.

(to quote the Alien tagline, with a Brewster capture slant)

Are they going to lock him in an invisible box? They better hope Opus is not around with an olive-loaf.

Can’t say that I like today’s strip.

They’re holding him on Mars, Cell Mars-O

A mime is a terrible thing to waste.

Poor Brewster, he’s locked in an invisible box by mimes.

Space Mimes are just as bad as land mimes.

Mime the gap!

Talk is cheap. Silence is golden.

The note doesn’t say anything. So how do you know it’s a ransom note? Mimes make grocery lists too!

Dated a mime once. She gave me the silent treatment bum doom pssst

That goes without saying.

Mimes from space! Well I guess it had to happen after “Killer Klowns from Outer Space” and “Muppets from Space”. Even Biden’s Press Secretary got in on the act, making fun of questions about US Space Force.

The silent treatment is better than the cold shoulder…

Seagull Mime: “Mime! Mime! Mime!” ㋡

I hope this is a ONE and Done and not an arc…

My stomach hurts already….

" !" " ?" " !!"

Invisible mimes miming invisible hostage situations.

In space noone can hear you mime.

There is an Art to Silence – Professor Ping

Not even a drawing?

“It was said that [Vetinari] would tolerate absolutely anything apart from anything that threatened the city*… [Footnote] And mime artists. It was a strange aversion, but there you are. Anyone in baggy trousers and a white face who tried to ply their art anywhere within Ankh’s crumbling walls would very quickly find themselves in a a scorpion pit, on one wall of which was painted the advice: Learn The Words.”

“We asked the Mimes what they want and they told us to just mime our own business.”
