Umm, Mopey, where were you back in the fall of 2018, when the International Space Station took pictures of a barbecue grill launched into outer space, or last May, when the TV networks all reported said grill collided with an asteroid and sent it on a collision course with Earth, and Ed was IDed as the responsible party? Why aren’t you aware of all this? You and Mind-ull were dating/engaged at the time. Were you cooped up in your bachelor pad reading Silver Age “Swing with Scooter” comics?
What are the objects on the ground. I suppose the one to the left of the grill is the empty charcoal bag. But what is the red thing to the right of the grill?
That’s a lot of charcoal and a lot of fuel……..free fireworks for the whole community……if they survive………never knew Crank thought about “community service”!!!!!
I wish Cranky was the center of this week doing something absurd with his grill instead of a week of fricken Pete (yet again) TALKING about Cranky doing something absurd with his grill. C’mon Batty – this is a classic Cranky arc, why are you Winkerbeaning it!
A grill shot into outer space is fantastic. Fantastic: definition 2 “imaginative or fanciful; remote from reality, seeming more appropriate to the imagination than to reality.” – from Maryann Weber’s Unabridged Dictionary.
I did a double-take when I first saw Panel #2. It appeared as if Ed was standing on one leg and his shoe was in the ground. Finally figured out Ed is walking towards the grill with his right leg behind his left.

Aren’t there state and federal laws about using fireworks within 150 feet of houses and cars? He’s got a bag of black market M80s there.

So he already put lighter fluid on. Now he’ coming with a gas can. And they all just stand around and let him, knowing what’s going to happen.

If we’re lucky, we might get to see a UFC. An Unidentified Flying Crankshaft.
