    Good morning™ to everyone at the top of the ravine!

    It looks like Tracy is very disheveled, but at least he didn’t get run over.

    Looks like Ghost may have given up the Ghost!

    Hmmm…I think I see how this story might continue another week or two.

    If this would have been a Gouldian story, Tracy would have been wracked beyond belief! He would have been torn up, placed in the hospital for a few weeks and then recuperated. I remember when he was starved by Shoulders, he lost so much weight he didn’t get to looking like himself for weeks!

    WHAT A RIP!

    It would have been nice to see the van go over the cliff. Instead we go from it doing an impossible spin dance to superman Tracy’s observations!

    GOOD GRIEF CHARLIE BROWN!

    Well I got something right. I commented yesterday that Sam might be coming on the scene, and he did…

    Arguably, Mike and Joe’s most Gouldian peril to date. ✨

    i think my shoulder is dislocated… but it didn’t stop me from reaching into my pocket and getting the key to unlock my cuffs, reach down to my ankle to get my snubnose, roll over on my stomach, hold the gun with both hands while laying on my stomach in the snow, and fire off a perfect shot into the left rear tire of a van that was no more than 5 feet away from me, dodge said van while getting off ANOTHER shot, leaning over the edge of the road to look for the van, and then rolling off the road into the trees to relative safety.

    SWEATBOX EXPRESSS, NOW BOARDING AT GATE 23…. AAAAAALLLLLLL ABOARRRRD!!!!

    look back to when Ghost’s van first stopped. Tracy was literally right behind it, and when Ghost started backing up, it was almost literally right on top of Tracy.. how he managed to get a single shot off, nevermind two, is ridiculous

    When Dick called Sam to say he was being dragged to death, Sam was in his pajamas and robe. So before he came to save Dick from being dragged to death, he had to get fully dressed – including putting on his bow tie??

    I guess Joe and Mike must be reading the comments NOW Tracy looks like he has been dragged along an icy road

    The story has holes, that’s a given but the below talk is classic with Timmy in first place !

    Are we drifting into shred Locher territory ? ;D

    Here’s my diagram of what I think happened. Sorry it’s a little rough.

    First an overview of how I imagine the mountain road. The van is coming to the first long straight section when the deer enters the road.

    Sunday’s strip. I think Tracy hit Ghost with a bullet at the end:

    Monday’s strip (Tracy hits the tire and the van spins out):

    I have been in a car that did this exact thing, except I wasn’t starting from a full stop and the ditch was only about 15 feet deep.

    Ghost was prob. so mad he floored it in reverse. Speed + ice=bad idea. And he went over backwards so he could still be alive.

    Well, Ghost always did have that “deer-in-a-headlight” look.

    Gee, little timmy is spot on today. Even though he succeeded in stealing my disgruntled man title it’s alright!

    Tracy is in the Coming Down Fast stage after the adrenalin rush of combat, which explains his tentative comment about the van going into the ravine (panel 1). Sam’s call by Wrist Wizard revives Tracy enough for his self-awareness of his injury to set in (panel 2). I hope Sam’s promise of a prompt arrival (panel 3) is true, because if Ghost survived in relatively good condition, he could still be a threat to Tracy!
