“Firststrike” and “Avengeroq” are the highlights today, though the visit by Fred Totten is the important clue for the characters. Homer Simpson always calls Bart “The Boy,” so I thought that was funny, too. The visitor on the third line needs to work on his or her handwriting!
A recap of yesterday and a preview of what will happen tomorrow is a good way to do things. It’s important for those readers who may have missed a day. Gould would do this sort of thing very often.
I don’t think that has ever really happened in the ones in the strip. They tried a couple of times, unsuccessfully in my opinion, then gave up on that aspect.
Well, all’s well that ends well, I suppose. It seems that Tracy solved this on his own without our seeing him do it. I feel a bit left out by the story. I’ll be happy to get back to the evil developers tomorrow.
It’s not a first, because the name of the late long-time commenter Vista Bill made several appearances as a character in the strip.
