Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 09, 2013

Great strip for exploding eye fans and fans of highly polished surfaces.

And for people who can’t distinguish between full upper lips and moustaches.

Is Mr. Jarbo anticipating the word “consortium” and reacting in advance or has it actually been bleeped out of the strip and replaced with a “-”?

I always feel confident about my case when my lawyer is a Lionel Ritchie / Rik James impersonator. “Super Freak representing the defendant, Your Honor.”

Why is Joe’s attorney smiling? It’s not that she’s a very kinky girl, the kind you would not take home to mother. She will be paid, win or lose.

Real surprise, eh Jimmy? Since you gave Knox the address!

Shiny surfaces, multiple exploding eyes, female mustaches, coffee mugs, today’s strip has almost everything. All that’s missing is a big hand dominating the foreground in one of the panels.

Please, let the lawyer have her name on her coffee mug.

This must be some sort of gag. That can’t be Jarbo’s attorney… because it looks just like the Ghost wearing a bad wig

The giant hand is missing, but that is certainly one large finger in P3. Does Mr. Jarbo get manicures I wonder?

The Jarbo’s are represented by the lawfirm of Antony, Cleopatra & Antony

No, no. It’s not “You got served?” It’s “You got SERVED!”

Bitsy, my thoughts exactly! If the plaintiff really is seriously injured, why is this lawsuit frivolous? If it is not the defendant’s fault, he will not pay. If it is, he will. That’s the way it should be.

Whigham hitting on all Thorpian cylinders today!

Thorp and his thug minions have their ways of dealing with situations like this. “Talks” on County Road…final resting places at Carbone Cave. And the like.

Today’s Gil Thorp strip has everything — except Gil!
