Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 12, 2020

P1 Is she going outside to see what football players she can drill?? What kind of scoreboard is that??

P3 If I did not know better, I would say there is a difference of opinion. MImi will win Corina over as this thrilling VB season progresses. Meantime, let’s get back to the gridiron!!!

New challenge for R + W will be drawing V-Ball action scenes. Are you ready for some V-Ball?

P1, If you can put that giant volleyball over the net, you can play anywhere you want.

P2, 3 inches? She’s a least a full head taller than you, Corina.

P3, Sure, she’s a regular Miss Congeniality.

In all reality , P3 ,Thanks girls ,hey want to see my imitation of a seal ? Your imitation was really great Coach Thorp , thanks .

P1- The Fist Pump Family must be the largest clan in Milford, providing a continuous pipeline of athletes to the Thorps. Has True left town? Will he be stuck on the mound waiting on his workout catcher? Will he become a feral creature like little Kaylie?

So many comments could be made on the dialog in P1 & P2, but I’m going to be good.

Cue Tru(e)’s response: “Hey, I got yer three inches right here!”

Panel one brought to you today by “VOIT” the first name in volley balls. Visit your local sporting goods store or visit us on line. (aside to Bitsy….. note that there was no mention of “in store”!)

Wow! It’s as if Rubham was reading yesterday’s Mopped Up Thorp and decided to lob me some softballs today, despite it being volleyball season. I barely had to add any dialog at all!

So curly haired tall girl thinks Corina is not “warming up” because she wants to play at the net instead of libero or setter? Pretty strict definition of a rebel in Milford. Or is it because of Corina’s horrible estimate of how much shorter she is?

P 1.5: “…. that’s too bad, “big midget”…”

This is so wrong on so many levels that Rub & Tuginham must have done over another cheap lunch at their favourite tavern.
