That way is not an option.

Punch him on the jaw. That’s what I’d do.

Jimmy. Pal. Bud. Friend. Dude.Those eye drops I gave you, can I have them back?

Please, Mr. Jim sir, you go first through the exit.Jim has become Pennywise.

After what we saw the Lizards planning to do, Jim may be the least of their worries.

Heeere’s Jimmy! Redrum!

Maybe somehow they can let Jim out among the lizards . That might give them something to think about. But really I feel sorry for Jim. And worried for Chic and Holly.

Maaaybe try another exit one more time.

Here comes Mr. Jump Scare.

Three days to wait to see what comes next!!!!!

I’m beginning to wonder about the construction of this place. It wouldn’t make sense to build an underground colony with so many hidden passage ways unless somebody involved with the design/construction really distrusted somebody else and found a need for being able to hide out. It could be that the mammals involved in this place’s construction really didn’t trust the “Reptilians” to allow them to stay. Seeing Jim perched on what looks like a roof makes me wonder if they didn’t either find or excavate a cavern and then build the walls and ceilings so that their living quarters had a more regular appearance. It also may have been easier to heat an inner building than the whole cavern.

Not to stray from the topic, but I’m guessing the lizards haven’t thought about the hole in Wally’s cell, either.…So much for Saturday Night Fights…

oh d-d-d-d-fear

One of those moments where first you say it, then you do it.

“Chic…I…Feel…G..o..o..d…”

Goodness! Can’t the bug ride on his shoulder or something??

Maybe Holly can reason a bit with Jim to let him escape the tunnels and get after his real prey? I doubt it, but it may be worth a shot…

The look on Jim’s face is truly frightening though.

They better hope the gas gets them before Jim leaps. A few weeks back I mentioned gassing, I am truly sorry if that inspired this twist of the story. The Lizzies underground town is made of masonry that has cracks in it. There is a lack of seal-able bulkheads and hatchways. A ventilation system that can provides positive pressure is also a necessity. The komodo-folk fail to grasp the inherent dangers of releasing a lethal chemical weapon in a closed space. They may end up killing or injuring more than 3 anthros and an athropod.That face rising out of the darkness is the stuff of potential nightmares.I give that a 17 out of a score of 10 on the “horror meter”Bravo! Mr. Neathery! Clive Barker would be proud.

So if there’s one last opening I wonder if the plan isn’t to gas them execution style but to smoke them out to the surface

Hey Aaron, how are you doing health wise? Hopefully your recouping well. The strips have been great, and I sure hope Sarah gets her just deserts. Take Care, Joe W.

That fourth panel literally gave me a jumpscare! O_o
