So now, just like in the Batman TV series or a James Bond flick, the heroes are left to perish in the diabolical trap, but they’ll escape, ‘cause the villain inexplicably doesn’t feel the need to wait around and confirm that they’re actually dying?
Hmmm….
So I guess this means Mr. Pops is currently unaware of Fee Fi’s heroic tail-pulling?
The clown’s going to phone the police! How far away from the tent are Ringo and the clown? Or is the tent smaller (again)? Perhaps tomorrow’s strip will reveal something new in this (neverending) suspenseful tale.
Hmm. One would think that the absence of “being eaten by a tiger” screams and shrieks coming from the tent would tip Pops off that there’s been a … hold up. (Sorry, couldn’t resist!)
The tiger lets out mighty growls
Causing Tracy to evacuate his bowels
Is Pops plan coming to fruition
We’ll find out after this intermission
Tracy quakes in the face of danger
To us he has become a stranger
No longer the Dick of old
Down the river he was sold
By a writer who no longer cares
Causing us to pull our hair
Will Locher do what must be done
And journey into the setting sun?
As I type my rhyming retort
I realized the clown’s teleport
he moved to outside
(when? Dunno. Why?)
So today’s poem shall be true sport
Tracy and Ennen are still in the cage
facing down a tiger’s rage
Grab a cat by the tail
Or it’s claws will prevail
At giving advice that’s most sage
The advice is to end this and quick
For of this circus I fear we’re all sick
Week after week
We can still hear the squeek
Of the plot as planned by a (CENSORED)
The clown points an obvious flaw
In the plot; it sticks in our craw
Where are the cops? What became of the feds?
Surely they did not all depart with the dead?
Once more the strip is just blah.
This makes no sense at all
But Locher sure has a ball
Have a tiger or two
And Tracy’s time is through
No wait, that’s just the fourth wall.
Please pardon this rhyming diction
I know that this is just fiction
Much like any trace of talent here
(Not a joke, I definitely fear)
Maybe in a month we’ll see some real action.
“No, but we’re real good at standing here and sreaming”, answer DT and Ennen in unison.
“I don’t blame you, I’ve been screaming ever since this bit started.”
The tiger answers ” You got that right. All I do here is growl menacingly and do nothing a real big cat would do. Mr. Tracy, I gotta ask: Why did you get in the cage instead of putting up a fight? Your chances should have been better against the clown than they would be trapped in a cage with me.”
Pssst, Locher! …….Don’t worry about Ringo calling the cops…….. Macy already did………..and they came…….. and then Krispy Kreme turned the “hot” light on.
Bravo for Paul Jones! He hit the nail on the head! No matter how stupid Macy and Co. are, the baddies are 150% dumber! I always ask myself why would DL make a buffoon out of a long-time Superhero? I never could answer that - especially when Mattie was telling us all that genius BS, the then Jeffie chimed in. Now I see he wants to showcase the baddies.
matthew, wherever you are, I read in one of your comments that you have some trouble drawing hands and spend a lot of time ‘getting it right’–this happens when you try to go from photos alone….please don’t be
offended but this course is what you need….

if you have the knowledge of the anatomy and what is going on ….hand rendering will become much much easier….
it sure did for me…
once again, don’t take offense….in the long run, this will save you much time
Ah, after not being here for a while, it’s good to see that I picked up right where it left off…this reminds me of the old television adage, “Tell ‘em what you’re gonna say, tell ‘em, tell ‘em again, then tell ‘em what you said”….
Flightsuit–I’m a big fan of Garfield Minus Garfield. It’s so damned surreal, like today’s tiger. Wait! That’s it! Paste today’s tiger pic into the Garfield Minus Garfield strip and let the hilarity ensue!
Locher & Davis…hmmmm, sounds like an old vaudeville team. No, wait, that was Franken & Davis ;-)
That’s it for this week. Tomorrow is rehash Sunday followed by flashback Monday. This will be the time for all of you who can’t remember, or those of you who choose to forget, to have this ridiculous story pounded back into your head.

WE’VE MOVED OUTSIDE OF THE TENT!!!!
That IS progress, yes?

Margueritem wrote, “Good lord, that tiger’s distorted!” Take a look at the clown’s pistol. Which way is it pointing?
margueritem almost 15 years ago
At Ringo’s head. It does look a tad like a cardboard gun, however.

A 6 year old could draw a better tiger than that one. Even Flight Suit could.

But I don’t need to; I’ve downloaded several weeks’ worth of DT tiger pics, and can copy-and-paste with reckless abandon!

Been checking…if you just read every tenth strip, this is still a nonsensical slowly moving story.

“Can you get out?” asks FeeFi.
“No, but we’re real good at standing here and sreaming”, answer DT and Ennen in unison.
“I don’t blame you, I’ve been screaming ever since this bit started.”
