Monty by Jim Meddick for July 14, 2012

classic Meddick artistry in that last panel

Alas, poor Jarvis! Faithful in service to the bitter, bumpy end….

If only Sedgewick were sitting up front, then Jarvis could have been saved by an airbag.

Best Sedgewick sequence in quite a while. Nice to see politics keyed in so artfully.

Are those air bags, or tea bags?

Wait, shouldn’t he be upset that the government mandated airbags?

So the airbag was saved by airbags?

Today’s strip is surely one of the classics. A solid seven-stars-out-of-five on the old comics.com scale.

“It’s a knockout…If looks could kill, they probably will, In games without frontiers-war without tears” Love the Gabriel, good one. Agreed on the rating, Odesu!

All hail the mighty Meddick!

I can’t read this comic without thinking of Nancy Reagan, George W. Bush, or the Koch brothers

yup, just as I thought, no bumper ring means no defense. I like to pretend he’ll suffocate in the airbags too.

Jarvis, are you all right? Jarvis? Sedgewick? Speak to us!

I wondered if it had airbags.

I do hope Jarvis is well compensated for being the loyal servant.

I’m still surprised that Meddick hasn’t worked the old

“Have you any Grey Poupon?” into this thread..

Maybe the commercial is too old and obscure….

I really do hope that this is not the end of Jarvis

Obviously, this carnival is NOT in Wisconsin.
