Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for April 29, 2021

Nice touch when CK catches cupcake with her left hand in P1, then transfers it to her right in P3. Throw down to second, runner out !!!

P1 Mimi’s cup cakes are beginning to droop!!

In all reality , Have you ever seen my grades Coach ?

I’ve never asked…what’s your name?

P1, Big hand, little hand and boobs.

P2, Only if my Mom can go with me. I can barely leave her alone long enough to go to school before she tries to burn something down.

P3, Wait, Mimi showed up for practice? When did that happen?

Yep, Mimi definitely wants CK to settle in at third

Does anyone remember why CK was in reform school, er, I mean Valley Modified? Was it her issues with authority or did she assault somebody with a baseball bat? Either way, Mimi just might be opening a can of worms here. But why should she care, she’s just looking for CK to take over the coaching reins while she enjoys some early pool time with Pedro.

“..don’t be fooled…”..good one, CK! ….Mimi and Gil are easily fooled

The boys said she’s grreat!

Ahh yes. CK on campus organizing panty raids, keggers and elephant walks with the Rugby Club. Become a beacon of progressiveness. Build a bonfire larger than Milford could imagine. It all started with a Hostess looking cupcake. Sweet.

Who needs a golf story when we’ll all be watching CK’s college tryout this summer?

I am sure CK would be a great interview for any recruiting college coach. Unless that is an authority position

Very high percentage of blue eyed people in this strip

Next year, CK goes to State U. where she’s reunited with that other bad-boy rebel, ‘the mayor’

That cupcake is related to Hostess the same way McDowell’s is related to McDonald’s. Look for it under the Golden Arcs.

P 1: “….you expect me to sell your stuff baked into this???? …are you crazy?…”

Ho Ho’s would be more appropriate for these two.

P3- Did R&W forget to draw the frosting on that cupcake or did CK lick it off with Mimi watching? Inquiring minds want to know.

She should play Baseball if she wants. The history of women being forcibly shunted into softball (which was originally invented as an indoor winter training version for men) is appalling.

“So you’re saying I suck at basketball? I’m planning to drop out and play in Russia next year.”

P1 – What is Corina doing? Offering her cupcake to the great pastry chef in the sky before she partakes?

P2 – That’s right. Mimi wants YOU, dear reader!

P3 – Spring of her Senior year and it’s just now you’re going to start looking at maybe going to college? And trying to get a scholarship (I assume)?

And speaking of start looking, what are you waiting for? Start looking at Mopped Up Thorp, RIGHT NOW!

I love Mimi’s expression in P1, like a one-year old getting her first cupcake….oh boy, oh boy, gimme gimme. Either that, or she thinks it was a magic trick….presto!
