They entered a large, crowded restaurant yesterday and someone on the far side of the room recognized them, waved, and called their names…

Today we find out he is the blind guy who is also a ski instructor and incredible martial artist… I guess if we’ve already been given a blind ski instructor and martial artist why wouldn’t he be able to recognize across a large, crowded restaurant floor.

And why did the character need to be blind in the first place? Was Robb exposed to radioactive Marvel Daredevil comics as a child? (Not to be confused with the old Lev Gleason Daredevil comics, which were not radioactive. Marvel may have been a shill for the nuclear industry based on how many comics where exposure to radioactivity made you stronger and/or smarter.)

I think it’s awesome to have a differently-abled person in a comic strip!

Welcome back, Haas!

Oh Dot, I think Haas heard you just fine!

Tadmad called it yesterday. Good job.

I’m assuming he’s a character from a previous arc of strips?

Um, how did he see them from across the room if he is blind?

I"ll tag along.

Kindness reaps kindness.

At least he won’t be able to see how close to death he comes, if she’s going to be doing the driving.

Dot is driving and the blind guy thinks they’re riding The Cyclone on Coney Island

My guess is his hearing is light years better than theirs.
