I guess that’s Gil in the third panel. The drawing seems intentionally crude compared with the first two. Instead of a right hand, Gil has a claw like Lobster Boy, and what’s with that poor excuse of a hat on his head?
I admire Darby. Yes, this is a comic, but her character is given a soul and mind, good depth. Not all characters on here are developed that well. She chose at a young age to have the baby and then keep it.
Gil just got back from the Belmont Stakes where he rode Berrill’s Memory to a fifth place finish. Which is where his squad will finish if they don’t get some pitching.
P1: Mimi- “I can imagine what your going through, The readers ridicule Gil and me because our kids vanished.” P3: Gil never wore a uniform, much less one that did not fit, when Mr. Berrill provided the strip. The small cap on Thro p’s head is due to swellheadednes and Gil’s improving golf game.
P1 – Is that really Mimi? She’s just about younger than her daughter probably is now, if she is ever found.P3 – Wow, after all the giant hands we’ve been seeing poor Gil’s seems to have shrunken. I don’t think he’s capable of holding the ball in that thing.
P1- Mimi looking a little like Nicole Kidman…P3- Gil borrowed Dave Parker’s cap from the 1978 Bucs….should get a free bowl of soup with that hat!
decten, Gil’s cap does have vertical stripes….I think you meant to say that the Bucs had horizontal stripes, which is correct….i was just making an allegorical observation anyway.

Gil didn’t have time to change out of his uniform from the valet parking job.

My sister was pregnant at 14(just one of many) and yes, she was easy(like a whole lot of us were) she was just one of the ones that got “caught”

Is that Gil, or the Valley Tech Lawn Jockey mascot?

It appears to be Ty Cobb Day at Valley Tech, and Thorp is just getting into the spirit of things.

The Pirates hats of the 70’s had the vertical stripes, not the horizontal.

Ty Cobb Day…ahh yes…it’s Retro Day in Milford. Gil is dressed like the first Mudlark baseball team back in 1921.

Max, he does look like a lawn jockey! We had a few in our neighborhood when I was growing up, and around 1968 people painted their faces white.

Maybe the third panel looks so odd because Rod Whigham let his young son draw it, the way Family Circus used to pretend Billy was a guest artist.
