Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for January 27, 2025

Why is a goateed Moe Howard eating ice cream outside in winter? Apparently, the drinking has made him dumb.

“It makes you dumb.” In vino veritas…

Those are the second biggest joints I’ve ever seen!

Marty does not need any artificial stimulants to be dumb.

Apparently, they are eating ice cream outside on a winter day. Note snow pile on the other picnic table, and (I guess) their breath condensing. Brilliant setting for a father-daughter get together. BTW, nice hair, “Ma~”. (bad pun, sorry)

P2 & P3- Bob Marley came walking through that door. Rasta mon!

P4 “Vapes are cool, daddy.”

“Pappa was a rolling stone. Where he laid his hat was his home.”

“Once we’re done with our ice cream, we should dance to warm up. How do you feel about waltzing, Matilda?”

Worth Repeating:

“Daddy. I’m so cold….”

If you have been suspended, what are you going to do about my support check ?

So much for Marty, now what’s Henry’s excuse?

P 3: He’s already dumb….his boozin’ just makes him dumber.

P 4 (Matilda): “…DID YOU HEAR ME OLD MAN?…” (reaches across table, delivers b!tch slap).

“You said I was banned from inside the ice cream shop. You never said anything about outside!”

the cold air helps matilda get rid of that monkey face she had saturday

marty looks at the table someone has carved the korean nightmare was here marty has a flashback to the war

So, what was the excuse before Goshen victory celebration?

No comment. (Is that legal?)

So she has her own podcast, but talks like a ten year old?

I read that sign in P1 as “Not so great Ice cream”.

I thought for sure that they were gonna be sitting at the table with no ice cream next to a big window sign proclaiming “Closed for the Season – See you March 31st!”

That ice cream cone looks like something I have seen in texts. Not really sure what it means.

P2-3 Looks like Matilda’s pacemaker is working fine.

i was at a comic store saturday afternoon and some guy who looked like tattoo from fantasy island with a beard and glasses wanted me to buy some book el churro something like that i just said the plane the plane

daddy since you went on the air drunk at wdig they wont even give us spoons to eat are ice cream and did you know peaches gave tays a rusty trombone !!!!!

P4: Marty: “So does this strip. Run away while you can.”

Momma and Poppa? Shouldn’t they be eating porridge?

Panel 2 is a reasonably good Marty. But Panel 3 …

Meanwhile…So this is going on at the same time as Marty is interrupting Matilda’s podcast. Both Marty and Matilda have doppelgangers that are also father-daughter? What are the odds! And speaking of odd, you can always expect something odd to be going on at Mopped Up Thorp.
