Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 12, 2015

WallabyYoch sure has some bored-looking fans. At least the kid with the bent glasses and the kidney hat is paying attention.

Those two Mudlarks in P1 are standing still – not much of a “fast” break. Wasn’t it Malik McCall’s Dad Van McCall who sang “Do the Hustle?” Kid in P1 is smelling his fingers like Mary Katherine Gallagher from SNL.

Too bad Malik McCall’s hustle can’t save this story.

Wow. Three fans on the left side of the stands yesterday, five fans to the right. Valley Tech has to have the least school spirit of any high school, ever. I don’t know of any school that wouldn’t draw at least four times that many Loser Townie Guys who Usta Be A Star for the local boys before they (cough) topped out at getting a job (cough) mopping floors. (cough)

Can we just have the peacock back. Hraaaaak!

In all reality, has Marty Moon had the growth on his head in P 3 checked byy a Dr. ?

P1 makes no sense. If VT is on a fast break, how come there are bleachers in the background? Are they directly under Milford’s basket? Maybe in a college game, but not in high school.

Is 22 Ricky Nelson?

The kid on the top row in the center of panel one is the only smart one in this strip. He’s obviously an alien contacting the mother ship to get him out of the awful place.

and Rip Van Winkle, like the rest of us Thorp fans, slept for 40 yrs.

And what’s with the V-Tech shirt in P1? Too many letters for “Valley Tech,” not enough for “Valley Technical.”

….nice comments today so far, gents, sparks up a sleeper of a storyline!

P3- looking at that paneling on the wall, is Moon broadcasting from the courtroom after his latest DUI?

Two questions on panel one: Is the muscular guy supposed to be Bacon? Is whoever it is about to pop ‘Ricky’ upside the head with his left hand?

There was either some school violence at ValleyTech or the latest outbreak of measles…only thing to explain the lack of a crowd.

I heard through reliable sources that Marty Moon is the #1 contender for Brian Williams’ gig at NBC. “Good evening. This is the NBC Nightly News. I’m Marty Moon reporting live from Valley Tech…”.

Wow! Look in Panel 1 all of those fans disguised as empty bleachers!

Yeah Sopranos, kinda looks like a Redskins home game.
