Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for June 01, 2017

An article about signman! http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-chicago-sign-painters-0601-biz-20170531-story.html

Following on Bitsy’s comment yesterday, that sign sure is sturdy. Even if they had it laminated it wouldn’t be that stiff. Maybe it was mounted onto fiberboard or something? Must have cost a lot.

The fans behind those girls aren’t getting much of a view. Down in front!

Maybe the sign is on something called “illustration board?” It’s also expensive…but free if you steal it from school, naughty girls!

Next, will they morph into the Charlie’s Angels pose?

It would be a barrel of monkeys if RVA would visit with the CC trio for a post game chat, reminiscing about old times.

P1, That sign is growing larger by the day. It’s nearly as big as the scoreboard now. I hope they sold ads on it like on the outfield fences to defray the costs of that thing.

The real question I have for this panel though is this. Why do the players appear to be standing on top of one another in the middle of the infield? Even The King and His Court didn’t play defense like that.

P2, Looks like there’s one guy in the dugout that’s looking for a date.

P3, Sounds like Van Awkward has a few more girls to hit. Wild pitches, here we come.

Time for RVA to unleash the inner Hulk. You wouldn’t like it when he’s angry.

I wonder if the officials at the game will make them take down the sign and/or leave?

Maxwell Smart undercover in a baseball uniform in panel two?

That sign should have pictures of the Thorp kids saying “remember us?”

P-1: Hands up don’t Bunt

“Cutter” if you are out there look at today’s “W T Duck”. (looking back at yesterday’s leads into it)
