Wally: “Get me some coffee and we can talk.”:::Wally: “Ok, this is the great WASTE. There’s no monsters under your bed. There’s no monsters in the closet. And there’s no monsters outside. Now, drink your milk and go back to sleep.”Voice under the bed: “What he said.”
I know Wally’s supposed to be groggy in panel two, but to me he appears to be REALLY mad. If he looked like that going into a fight, he would win more just by staring them down.:-)
Ah, now I remember what this strip reminds me of. There was an episode of “The Twilight Zone” where a man who was recovering from mental illness was flying on a plane and saw a monster on the wing of the plane that was trying to damage the airplane. Any time he got anybody else to look out the window, the monster disappeared. I wonder if that’s what’s happening with Holly. If so, are the dittos involved?
First, I’ve got a bad feeling about Clive. Is he dead? You’d think there would be shock isolation for the canned brain, but who knows how much, or something else has gone bad? The self-repair nanites haven’t kicked in either, and there doesn’t appear to be any manual controls for the vehicle. Then, the barrier may also have deliberate traps, not just bad luck for our heroes. The Mysterious Shape is likely some guy checking out what the traps have caught. Of course, Arron is such a stinker for drawing this out. I’d WAG that he’s going to drag out the big reveal for a cliff-hanger this next week end. Or even later.
Clive is probably no worse off than Petey was when Flask found him.#Yeah, get their guns. It doesn’t matter if Wally and Holly can’t fire them. If they have them, Jim and Sarah won’t be pointing them at anybody.#I thought George Harrison’s Handmade Films financed “Time Bandits” from the get-go—-that it was “Life of Brian” that Harrison came in when Bernard Delfont had a moral crisis over the content and canceled his studio’s involvement in it. (Proves nothing.)
I commented to Aaron N. in email that it’s a good thing Clive doesn’t have side panel air bags, or Jim would be sitting in Sarah’s lap right now.He ignored me.

Well, this has been a fun vacation. Hope everyone enjoyed almost being crushed at Deadney Land. It’s time to go home.

It’s the Statue of Liberty, half-buried, and she’s looking in at them. They were on Earth the whole time. Nah…different story.
