A little more damage now, burning of the fronts of the burning. Maybe a firefight, then the shooting of mutants while they were lying on the ground. No direct proof yet that the Topsiders were involved.

Lots of mutant shapes.And a lurking TopSider! Hope Holly is watching their back and gives warning,

Uh oh.

I hope those Dittoes are still doing their job!

Oh no, the old spooky-monster-hiding-around-the-corner device. Owwww Notice that in the third and fourth panels, the Topsider (or is it just a suit?) has not moved.

Is it just me, or does this feel like Bilbo Baggins, Gollum and the ring of invisibilty?

Or it’s a mutant wearing a topsider suit to conceal his/her identity.

Aren’t they invisible because of the dittos?

Uh-oh!

Oh. Crap. Please, please, please be working, dittoes!

Let’s look at some possibilities. Maybe this Topsider is a potential friend. Flask must not be the only one sick of what they’ve been doing.#So, Wally, keep an open mind when you meet face to facemask. But keep your zap gun handy just in case.

The Topsider must have just come from inside a building, or Wally would have seen it when he passed by.

How about this for a plot twist: the topsider is a deserter and is coming over to the mutants side.

Wow. And it ain’t even Friday yet! Hope the dittoes are doing their job…

My guesses have already been mentioned. One possibility for this to end may be to do a “Linda” on him (knock him out and expose him to the mutagen).

Okay, maybe it’s not a “him”.

Reminds me of the Red Dwarf episode “The End”. The last surviving member of the crew wanders through the ship past multiple piles of powder asking about various crew members.“Where’s Steve?”“He’s dead.”“Lewis?”“He’s Dead.”“Peterson.”“He’s dead. Everybody is dead except you.”

Can’t wait to see what this topsider will turn into……I wonder… What if he’s Linda’s son?

I’m guessing the topsiders are tracking down mutant settlements with their new satellite, Endtown is safe because of the dittos but everyone else is screwed.

Excuse me, sir. Would you happen to have the time?

Of course this could be the dittos showing Wally what it could be like if Endtown doesn’t get its act together.

It could be an empty suit.

Happy New Year, everybody.

Hope the dittos are working

Suddenly I hear the theme from “Jaws”
