Monty by Jim Meddick for July 14, 2012
Transcript:
Sir, the other cars have encircled us, allowing no exit. Curses! That's the problem with the 99%! There's so blasted many of them!... And it appears now they are accelerating toward us... What?! Collective action?! Impossible! I thought we neutered their unions! I thought... Ah! Thank heavens for our Bentley comes equipped with passenger compartment front side and rear side airbags!... Right Jarvis? Jarvis?...

If only Sedgewick were sitting up front, then Jarvis could have been saved by an airbag.

Best Sedgewick sequence in quite a while. Nice to see politics keyed in so artfully.

Are those air bags, or tea bags?
CasualBrowser about 12 years ago
Wait, shouldn’t he be upset that the government mandated airbags?
jpsomebody about 12 years ago
So the airbag was saved by airbags?

Today’s strip is surely one of the classics. A solid seven-stars-out-of-five on the old comics.com scale.

“It’s a knockout…If looks could kill, they probably will, In games without frontiers-war without tears” Love the Gabriel, good one. Agreed on the rating, Odesu!

I can’t read this comic without thinking of Nancy Reagan, George W. Bush, or the Koch brothers
yangeldf about 12 years ago
yup, just as I thought, no bumper ring means no defense. I like to pretend he’ll suffocate in the airbags too.

Jarvis, are you all right? Jarvis? Sedgewick? Speak to us!

I wondered if it had airbags.
joegeethree about 12 years ago
I do hope Jarvis is well compensated for being the loyal servant.
boldyuma about 12 years ago
I’m still surprised that Meddick hasn’t worked the old
“Have you any Grey Poupon?” into this thread..
Maybe the commercial is too old and obscure….
kullyrai about 12 years ago
I really do hope that this is not the end of Jarvis

Obviously, this carnival is NOT in Wisconsin.
