Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for September 20, 2013

He said he wants a pizza?

Wonder when we’ll see his face?

Note the translation caption!

What’s the point of hiding his face? I think I will skip this story line.

me too – and it’s been so s-l-o-w to get this far

Since he finally arrived, what was the point of the missed flight storyline?

Remember “Smilin’ Jack”? We will never know what this guy looks like.

I was gonna say way earlier that this guy is going to be the “Downwind Jackson” of Gasoline Alley.

Interesting outfit Guido is wearing.

Usually I am “ok” with the pacing of GA, even though I tend to be most happy when Joel is a featured character. However, somewhere along the way, when our group reached the airport (and began the Guido sub-arc) I completely lost interest. I am not sure why exactly, but I have. I will diligently keep reading hoping for a big payoff eventually when this story arc reaches culmination.

Surprisingly the whole world does not speak English. Until recently Gretchen was living and working in Italy. Guiido is a booking agent in Italy where a booking agent who speaks English and not Italian would be a handicap.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Well, we saw his chin today.Maybe an ear on Monday.
