Humpty’s a bad egg, a hard-boiled con man who poached other brokers’ clients. But he didn’t deserve this. The cops better whisk him away before someone starts beating what’s left of him. Besides, the coppers’ll get Humpty to roll over easy on his accomplices under interrogation, too.
“It’s Easter in Reading – a bad time for eggs – and no one can remember the last sunny day. Humpty Dumpty, well-known nursery favourite, large egg, ex-convict and former millionaire philanthropist is found shattered beneath a wall in a shabby area of town.”

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall (street)
Humpty Dumpty had a great (market) fall
And all the king’s bears
And all the king’s bulls
Couldn’t put Humpty back together in full.
And all because of the trade war with China.

“Of course this would have to happen today.”
“What’s today?”
“Wednesday.”
“What does that have to— No. No, don’t say it.”
“It’s Humpty.”

Two strips in the same day with a Humpty Dumpty reference? Was this intentional? https://www.gocomics.com/inthebleachers/2018/09/20
