Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 03, 2022

That kid has Kaiser Wilhelm short arm syndrome.

Uh Oh! This could be trouble! Gil! Gil!

Yep, that was inevitable …

What are the odds on this kid finishing the school year?

P4 Pranit: “Ummmm sure, I put the bets down for you, give me the $500 and then I’ll make the plays for you.”

Goofus D Meatball: “Ummmm, I am a little short on cash, but these are can’t misses, so how about I pay you out of the winnings?”

Pranit: “Okay, I mean, what could go wrong?”

P3 Not even the glare of Mopman’s brilliantly shined floors can hide the disturbing hand positions of blue boy in this panel

P4: “Steal your own identity.”

Sore neck syndrome strikes again.

Times sure have changed. It’s like Eddie Haskell is the school hero instead of Wally Cleaver.

I don’t know just who this guy is, but at least now we know where the softball team can find their next rally hippo.

If there’s one thing this guy should know about, it’s Heat- Nuggets.

P 4: “…I would do it myself, but I’m missing too many fingers on this hand…”

Could Chunky be the offspring of Brent Raptor? Speculation or coincidence that Raptor vanished about the time Keri and Jami were banished from Milford, err, booked on a cargo flight to travel and broaden their horizons.

Chubby is or will be a snitch/informant.

I’m putting a C-note on The Pillsbury Dough Boy to bring down “Can It” Pranit’s sports book fiasco and enlisting in The Gilfather to help him see the error of his ways.

What’s the problem? My Guidance Counselor told me to work on my grades and I’m turning into a regular bookie

In all reality , Sunday’s Milford Tribune Sun Times Herald American Today headline blares DOES MILFORD HS HAVE A STUDENT GAMBLING PROBLEM ?

P-2 dialog to P-3 art: Best joke yet from R&W

How is a kid who does some gambling on a sports betting app a “hero”?

The campus bookie!

Hey, did we replace the lockers? They used to be about 7’ tall and they were wider yesterday. Maybe these are the ones across the hall, for the underclassmen. And speaking of maybe, maybe you’d like to read today’s installment of Mopped Up Thorp.

Hey, maybe this is Lumpy’s little brother. Remember Lumpy from the days of….what was her name? Lini? I’ll have to go back and scan the MUT archives.

P3- This kid is so big now he had to ditch his belt.

Guys, I need a place to hide. I think I’m about to get fired and/or sued after I started a new side job waxing the floors at Liō’s grocery store.
