Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for October 23, 2023

P2: All of today’s readers.

Pedro’s 12 hour growth of facial hair is impressive.

She was fine on Saturday. Did Luke beat her up or something? Have we skipped 8 months to Gil becoming a grandparent? Would it be too much to expect some sort of clue for the few of us who’re still reading?

Probably. We haven’t had many the last year and a half.

E(MeMe)ly ETA +11. Being there for Keri – NOT!

P 4: “… just read some of the earlier strips that feature you and your friends if you need any help doing that…”

“…anything with Jami works good too…”

P4: OK. ZZZZZZZ.

The use of the word “baby” was somewhat tactless by Pedro.

Somewhere in a Milford penthouse, Kaz is celebrating the fact he’s no longer part of this circus.

About the only thing keeping me interested in this storyline is how GIl is going to explain this to Jami. Hopefully, it won’t ruin his Halloween.

The baby can’t go back to sleep: it’s been dismembered and vacuum sucked down a sink.

Not a conservative here, but it’s disgusting to see abortion depicted not as a profound moral decision but a chance to snarf down snacks and catch a few z’s. Add me to those done with this strip.

That has got to be the most uncomfortable way to sleep ever. Not counting sleeping on a rock or a cactus. And speaking of rocks, that’s what Charlie Brown gets when he goes trick or treating, but all of you get a new edition of Mopped Up Thorp.

Take advantage of the situation, Pedro and we’ll repeat this process in another two months.

Based on P3, how do we know this isn’t a flash-forward? Pedro could be at ToBe’s bedside after he got the franks and beans implant.

It would take serious malpractice for an early term abortion to require an overnight stay. You’d think Pedro’s mother would have sent her to somebody semi-competent.

Change of mind??

Yay! Abortion in the comics.

wow a direct rip off from mary worth panal one did june fill in for whigham

well at least pedro gave her a ride unlike the guy in fast times ridgemont high

dam pedro can outsleep dagwood from blondie and andy capp

P1- Are those vultures?

Baby? What baby? Is this the abortion clinic or a maternity ward and Pedro is dreaming?

who is Pedro?

I had to go back to the Saturday srop to see if I missed something. Strange way to present the story line.

If only someone would put this strip to sleep.

feliz navidad pedro

Well, I’m done. Gil Thorp has always seemed to support old fashioned, clean-cut, American values. That this strip so flippantly seems to endorse the murder of a human baby is where I get off. This used to be a really good strip.
