Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for December 27, 2020

Torches and pitchforks on a space station—gotta love it.

G2020DBYE!

Remember how people fretted about 2000 (a.k.a: “Y2K”)?

The Good ’Ole Days.

They aren’t the only ones hunting him. https://www.gocomics.com/speedbump/2020/12/27?ct=v&cti=2195908&comments=visible#comments

They’ll never catch him if they don’t swing their arms in proper tandem with their legs. They should be opposite — right arm forward while right leg back and vice versa.

Where are Dr Mel’s killbots?

I wonder how many of the people who are looking forward to 2020 coming to an end will be severely disappointed when they wake up in 2021 and realize NOTHING. HAS. CHANGED.

Not to leave too soon, another monsoon/blizzard is gonna hit on New Year’s Eve.

This is the 4th Father Time themed comic so far today. I guess it’s that time…

and to think we didn’t have toons like this in the good ol days of Nam years

This sums things up neatly.

The expression “20/20 hindsight” takes on a whole new meaning

In the end, history will report 2020 and the pandemic as a minor event of little note. People that will be the true historical outcome, and that alone should frighten you.

@mobeydick – like when the Tangerine Twit dismantled the pandemic response team

And then there’s the question of why there’d be pitchforks on a spaceship.

Like it’s the year’s fault. Everything in 2020 happened BECAUSE OF PEOPLE!

Do I hear a cadet yelling about his spleen?

Every space station has a pitchfork-and-torch locker for when the crew rises up in anger.

The old fart wasn’t paying attention because he couldn’t stop playing “PUBG”, “Candy Crush Friends Saga” and “Angry Birds 2”…

It wasn’t some personification of the calendar that got us where we are now. It was people, the cantankerous, ornery “sheep” who believed the lies instead of the science, because it was more convenient … in the short run.

I’ve got a feeling twenty-one

Is going to be a good year

Especially if you and me

See it in together

For an old guy, he’s pretty quick.

Four more days of this theme in all the comics, then probably a week more of it in 2021 and then maybe we can back to actual humor in “funnies.”

this too shall pass . just not fast enough.

You got your work cut out for you, 2021

Torches? On a Space Station?

They must be Really MAD.

I don’t see Cliff in the crowd.
