Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for April 17, 2023

No more R.J.? Well, we can’t have two hunks, I suppose. But I’ll rather miss the keen kid and the gawky teenager. Perhaps another adoption opportunity will arise.

Can anyone say ‘A song of Reacher?’ RJ appears to be going down that path(although the red color around him looks spooky).

I just think it’s nice to see that Rip got all of RJ’s hair as a consolation prize.

Eh look like he being written outta this comic and into a spin-off of his own.

“there’s a man who lives a life of danger; to everyone he meets he stands a stranger”Secret Agent Man, Johnny Rivers 1966

So, it’ll be like the old TV series, THE IMMORTAL, ever wandering (until he invades PEANUTS and is taken out by Charlie Brown’s kite)?

Does R.J. become Jack Reacher??? Note, the initials are the same, just reversed. KA-Secret Identity.

Maybe less RJ, and more Cobra?

You tell him, TNT !

KA-COMPLIMENT!

RJ certainly did learn from the best. He’s a chip off the old Rip.

So Miss Manners was reincarnated as a dog turned horse? KA-ool.

It’s like Mrs. Garrett leaving the Drummonds to run a dorm at an all-girls school in upstate NY. Wait, did Dan just do a pilot of his new comic in his current one? Brilliant!

Is RJ being written off by turning him into Luke Cage?
