Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for December 28, 2024

What is happening in P3? What is on Marty? What is coming out of Peaches’ mouth?

His kid’s still too young to drink…

Didn’t Peaches use to be hot?

Old age or Rachel’s artwork?

I can’t wait for you to meet Marty’s kid!

P3: Peaches auditioning for Wicked.

She checked on Daisy by leaving her on a street corner?

Where did Rachel go to art school, sad

Just what we need --another ridiculous story arc that has NOTHING to do with sports. Next up——“Marty and his kid”. The sequel has to be " Meet Marty’s kid’s Baby Mama!"

Is Peaches a he or a she? Pretty mean looking, either way.

P1 to P2, her coat is longer. P3, Marty’s expression pretty much sums up this strip.

In Marty’s fragile world, Daisy dog is his kid.

P1 and P2 are bad enough but P3, good gravy, Moe Howard and Bea Arthur don’t make an attractive couple even without the mouth flames of gray.

I was today years old when I found out Marty had a kid. Boy? Girl? Or, in this strip some sort of non-binary individual.

P3: Marty should have selected the option to remain incarcerated.

I’d still like to know why he was even locked up in the first place.

Maybe next we’ll get to see Peaches punching out Nonads.

Marty:" I was lonely and hungover. I got married in jail. At least I wasn’t the bride."

who builds a snowman in the middle of the street ?

tays saw peaches walking down the street wouldnt touch it with a ten ft pole

P-1: Already depressed by our lack of appreciation, the drawer auditions for the new Mr. Bill strip, 30 years past its prime.

P-2: New singing group: Peaches and her…B.

P-3: Marty’s expression sums it all up.

P-4: Peaches, that’s a mini bottle, not my kid!

P4 (Marty thought bubble): “Jeez, now I’m surrounded by b!tches. I should have just stayed in jail and be the b!tch.”

P1 – Daisy commenting on Peaches looks

Doesn’t look like Marty but guess that is supposed to be him.

What happened? The background in P1 looks like a war broke out and Milford was decimated. Did someone erect crucifixes? Wow, this town does not react well to a poor football season. And speaking of reactions, I hope you react well to today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

P 3: It’s not Marty… it’s a Marty ventriloquist doll.

Worth Repeating Again: #Day899ofGilThorpFansHeldHostagebyBadWriting

Daisy has the best lines in the strip.

panal one you see peaches pants panal two her coat is down to her ankles

Rachel Merrill should be embarrassed that artwork like this is released to the public.

If she cannot get the work done in time (or just races through it in order to get to things she actually wants to work on), then she should step aside for someone with more experience and an actual desire to to quality work.

Let’s WDIG into Marty’s past.

Coming in January: Marty and Marty in morning drive time! The two moons of Mars.

Please let Jami be Marty’s kid. Please, oh please.
