Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 29, 2015

And so ends the most do-nothing story maybe ever, but not before Gil proposes marriage.

Warning! Warning! MOP, a couple of weeks ago you got mad at us for not letting you know about a spelling error in Mopped Up Thorp. Well yesterday, just so you know, there’s no G in machine. Just doing my civic duty.

Friday, the first high school football game was on ESPN. I checked the schedule and ESPN will broadcast Milford’s 3rd game of the season opposite The Superbowl and The Puppybowl. I for one will be wearing out the remote.

Tru seems fascinated by Gil’s lobster claw in P1. And a couple of more hands in P3.

Too bad Sammy Davis is no longer around to sing “I Gotta Be True.”I’ll go it alone, what else can I doI can’t be right for somebody elseNo, not even youI gotta be True, I just gotta be TrueDaring to do, what I have to do,I gotta be True.

That’s his brand, I guess. His sweat drops are defying gravity by the way.

Show of hands, folks — how many of you would rather that Brent Raptor sat on your heads holding fifteen boxes of pizza until your skulls gave way, than see so much as ONE MORE FRIGGING STRIP CONCERNING THIS PLOTLINE?!? .AUUUUUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!!

In all reality , True and his recruit buddies plot to right the wrongs of college football recruiting failed but the allegations they made against U of I Coach Tim Beckman got him fired one week before the Illini’s openning game. Maybe True can bring Chief Illini back ?

#gottabeasap.

And the yutzes girlfriends catchphrase is " gotta be boo". In p.2’ Gill appears to be trying to to talk Tru out of deciding to becoming a bat!Robin

Exactly what is Gil doing in P2 to elicit that look of euphoria on Tru(e)’s mug?

Missed all of the GoComics’ crew’s wit while I was on hiatus with my cross-country move, but nothing in this plot ever changes, does it?

In all reality, as school starts the Thorp pool closes with Pedro telling Mimi " Ok if I come by when the Senor not around and trim the bush with my weed wacker ?

P-2: If you invert it, you can see the physical resemblance with Boo, including the hair ( I hate the new gocomics site)

There better be a twist ending to this, as in they are tweeting fake choices. Otherwise, WHAT IS THE POINT? #gottabetrue is just stupid if it’s not “ironic”. And speaking of points, make a point to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

I see three dumb bells in panel one.

and also panel three.
