    Bribery aiding and abetting the police – who’d have thought it?

    Don’t forget, they make these strips several days if not a week or more in advance. So sometimes you get rather odd circumstances.

    Odd timing on Team Tracy’s part with the TNT, given what’s been going down in NY/NJ the past few days.

    So turn off the ignition, which would kill the computer and the wifi connection and effectively end Matty’s ability to access the car.

    It’s just as well – getting that “B” branded on her forehead would just spoil her looks…

    Today, with the tails of her coat shaped the way they are, and flying out behind her like a cape, Rikki only needs a mask and she could pass for Bat-Girl.

    All internet enabled cars that I am aware of put the “entertainment system” on the same bus as engine control – making them vulnerable to remote control. Although currently, this means killing or revving the engine – as steering is not (yet) under computer control (except for the high end Mercedes). This is very likely what happened to Breitbart.

    Even stupider, airplanes with Wifi put the entertainment system on the same bus as flight control – to save a few wires. A proof of concept attack demonstrated ability to log flight control data (the hacker not wanting to risk any lives by sending commands). The next 911 hijackers needn’t bother actually being on the plane.

    Rikki has been jolted into a quick change of attitude and a rushed anti-Batgirl-like action! She looks very vulnerable and sweet in panel 3, quite unlike yesterday’s homicidal would-be killer of Chief Patton. Matty Squared isn’t really trying to harm her; he’s just programmed that way (yeah, as Jessica Rabbit said…). But he is very efficient, taking virtual control of the Vampire Mechanique with ease (to be fair, Rikki had no inkling of Bribery’s new plan for her nor of his electronic resources). For Pat, this is a serendipitous turn of events. He may even be able to capture Rikki and get her to turn on Bribery….

    Seems to me that Bribery is overstepping. I was under the impression that Abner Kadaver and Rikki Mortis were independent contractors rather on a work for hire basis rather than employees. As such if she chooses to work for another “client” – in this case Ms. Rikki Mortis of TracyTown – he doesn’t have any cause to prevent her from completing that task for her new client. Of course since they’re all crooks, I doubt that contract law comes into the equation much.

    The TNT is just a visual, like a cartoon. The actual explosion may have zero to do with TNT at all.

    Nice trick, jumping clear of a moving vehicle when the driver’s compartment is still closed, windows up.
