You have to be a fan of Pee Wee Herman (Paul Reubens) to get this joke. Note the names of the players. This video will explain it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ev933tqrmkk
On the current Comics page, if a comic hasn’t been updated, you get a line that looks like (for example) “The Bent Pinky was not updated this day. View last strip”. I REALLY rely on the “View last strip” link. It looks like this functionality has completely gone away in the beta. PLEASE RESTORE THE “VIEW LAST STRIP” link! I much prefer that to the recommendation strip that you now have in the beta.
A more current version of this strip would use Android vs. iPhone.
