    Saw the gun. That was not fun, much to Guy’s consternation

    Very tight spot. A room too hot. Rise Guy’s irritation.

    Yet close at hand dedicated band. Who joins the MCU?

    A smiling face. A Federal case. Dietrich unites the crew.

    Lizz and Lee. What is to be? Shootout or surrender?

    Coney feasts. Twelve dips at least. Scoops up on a bender.

    Eff-Bea-Eye shows clearly why this caper was a folly

    Gagged and bound and not yet found, young Guy looks none too jolly.

    Good morning™, panicked, cool and scared !

    We have 3 states of emotion going at once. Howdy, running like his string’s cut off; Coney cool as a frozen hard serve and Guy, scared he is about to be between opposing sets of guns. Tension mounts !

    Let’s see….Tracy has his .45….Fritz Ann (who to my surprise turned into an FBI gunslinger while I wasn’t looking) has her .45.

    Let’s see who gets drilled when the fun begins…..

    Didn’t Coney have brown hair ? And what happened to his eyes ?

    I remember one of the other posters a couple of days ago mentioning Mr. Magoo… But, this is ridiculous !

    And Joe looks like he might be tied up to a bomb…

    Good morning™, everyone!

    True to form, Coney is not a fighter. He’s a fairly bland, plain-vanilla type of guy, who never gets too excited. No way is Coney going to shoot back if threatened.

    Howdy is a bit more unpredictable. If my guess is correct, he already fired shots in Dethany’s direction at the beginning of this story.

    Note to Howdy: Why is Coney so calm? Remember the aphorism: If you’ve been at the poker table for a while and you still don’t know who the patsy is — you’re the patsy! Coney knows, and you don’t…

    Coney’s about to get that cone shoved up his A frame.

    The officer lived in Jamaica Plain, which isn’t too far from my neighborhood in Brookline.

    Coney looks a LOT different today. More “sleepy” than ice cream-powered less-than-mastermind….

    Yesterday Tracy was on a roof far, far away.

    Today he’s in front of the door.

    The continued inconsistencies is going to totally destroy this once great strip.

    I know there has been ups and downs in the writing (inevitable — I couldn’t come up with consistent story ideas 24/7/365 for a living), but this arc has been well-paced, in my opinion. Sometimes it’s felt rushed. The story moves forward each day nicely.

    1-HOWDY DOOGIE: There’s a bunch a people at the door, Fat Archie.

    2-FAT ARCHIE: Probably autograph hounds. Tell ‘em $25. Double if they want a pict…

    3-WHAM-O O added to avoid copyright infringement

    4-DT: Ummmm, Sam? Was that really necessary. They let Marlayna in with no fuss.

    SAM: I had the Big Black Key with me and well, the big dog’s gotta eat sometimes.

    DT: I guess the owner of this dump oughta be grateful you weren’t driving the Armored Tactical Assault Vehicle then. Come on. Let’s steal the glory from Marlayna! SAM: Wait. Why are we here…?

    5-GUY PRONOUNCED GEE: MMMPFF, MMMPFFFF! How deed my date with ze beeyoutifull Geisha Girl turn eeento theees?!?!

    Coney may have a secret weapon he’s waiting to deploy, like giant ice cream cones ;)

    Avenger talks about consistency, the last time Coney appeared..July 29 and 30th, he had round, blacks eyes. Now look. Is the dude melting, or have the stooges running this show fallen into early dementia? Really sad, and Avenger correctly laments.

    Coney is awfully calm? What tricks does he have up his sleeve?

    Maybe he is so cool as he has an ace up his sleeve, as Guy Wyre is in a position that Coney could easily do him in if harassed!

    no planning involved, with DT is all done on the fly. But at least this time he did bring more than just a few bodies

    Fritz Ann has disappeared as fast as she first got to the door! The Battering Ram does its thing (is that Sam in green and gloves, swinging the ram?), and Tracy (not Fritz Ann, FBI Inspector Dietrich) bursts in, gun drawn. Coney, meanwhile is consumed with consuming his strawberry cone even as Howdy panics. Will Howdy resist the combined force of Tracy, MCU, and FBI (Fritzie’s gotta be somewhere)? Is he even armed? Is fearful Guy rescued, or caught in the line of fire? Will desperate Dethany really hold back with Sam, or will she rush in recklessly?

    Fast action ahead!

    Well, now I know why Stooge’s loot has gone undiscovered all this time. Coney seems to have the urgency of a tranquilized sloth.

    In the (3rd) 4th (5th) panel it looks like he has has another kind of cone before hand. I guess Ice cream is his munchies.
