Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for September 29, 2013

Happy birthday, NASA!

The moment Agent X mentioned sending monkeys into space, you knew what the punch line would be.

Is Brewster OK?I think he might be a little pail.

Just hope they don’t cut the funding…while you’re up there.

Bucky’s become a killbot!I read a news story years ago that Gagarin reported his capsule struck something in orbit. I can’t find any mention of it now.

Are you using the word “cut” in “Common Vernacular”? Meaning to get less this year than last year?Or are you speaking in “Congressese”, where “cut” means to “Get a Smaller Increase than Asked For” ?

I know some more dumb animals they should send in space…the posters who read Endtown.

♪♫ My bucket’s got a Brewster in it . . ♫♪ . . ☻

I thought Brewster did vote for Bucky.

They sent monkeys AND chimps up before humans. The text mentions monkeys but the picture is of a chimp (who are apes, not monkeys).

“L’IL”? Which letters are being elided here? (My best to your copyeditor.)

I retired from NASA in 2010, my hubby in 2005

good place to work, if you don’t have to deal with upper management….

Not trying to start anything, was just wondering which pol. party has more trolls, reps or dems? Currently i would think it would be reps since their guys lost the past 2 elections.

As part of human nature you only say something when things aren’t going right. My wife works customer service for a national tv provider, has yet to get a call saying everything is working perfectly, my bill is accurate, you have great equipment, techs, cx service, etc…

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, great comic.

Cool, thanks for sharing your opinion. I really am not sure, didn’t want to start (or finish) anything, curiosity just got the best of me.

NASA didn’t really start in Germany, although some scientists did work there. They weren’t trying to get to space, just to blow up London.
