Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for September 01, 2014
Transcript:
Breezy: Good news, Rip! I found a town just down the mountain! Maybe I can get medicine for your injuries there! Rip Haywire: A gallon of Jim Beam and a bag of leeches are the only medicine I need! Breezy: But we are stranded in the middle of who-knows-where... I could be walking into a badger's nest of trouble, for all we know! You're not going to talk me out of this? Rip Haywire: Why would I do that? This is your chance to have some fun!

This is the first time I’ve seen his eyes open when he’s not comically freaked out.

And after Breezy has had her fun maybe she will remember to get the medicine. “Sorry Rip but their were out of Jim (Hic) Beam”.

I thought I was going to be the only one who noticed the new look. Not bad, but I think I like the old look better.

don’t worry I tweak it back to look more normal in the strips to come…just pretend it’s Rip’s injury that makes him look weird…yeh that’s what it is…his injury!

We are all used to the old (and better) look. Maybe, Rip looks like this due to losing weight while injured. Yeah. That is it.

He looks rather psychotic this way.

Breezy… If you’re going for the position of Mrs. Rip Haywire, you need to get all the experience you can get beforehand.…Just save some of that badger’s nest for Rip. You know he’ll want to play too once he’s all better.

Dan, you know I love this strip and admire your talent. That having been said, I gotta vote NO on the new look in Panel 3. It’s like giving little orphan annie eyes, just plain Creepifyin’
