Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for December 19, 2011
Transcript:
Linc: That jerky mobster Axe Jefferson has absconded with the star witnesses in his trial! Mac, go start a hard-target search! Cactus: Will do. Linc: I've got to run. I'm late for my own Christmas party - Uh-Haywire, if you don't have any plans I'd like to invite you - I think you need to talk to a certain lady who'll be there. Dutch: Dang! I was hopin' you two would fight over her - Rip: Zip it, old man, or you'll be sucking your Christmas goose through a tube.

I’m really liking this DA guy. First he saves a puppy and now this. I’m looking forward to having Rip, Cobra and family wishing us and the Troops a Merry Christmas next Saturday. Mr. Thompson, please let him be the real thing and don’t have him going all Harvey Dent on us. BTW, this strip is the best!!

So far Linc seems to be an A-OK D.A. and a decent Joe, but I’m not gonna get excited until I actually see Rip and Cobra kissing and making up! For all we know, that “certain lady” could be Evil Grammy Haywire, or a tax collector! :-)

Oh, the look on Rip’s face…! He’s so happy, he doesn’t even notice a certain puppy chewing on his jacket.Forget “Operation: Missing Linc”! This problem seems to be solving itself.

Linc seems to know he’s a rebound date for Cobra; she and Rip belong together. That, and my previous comment that Cobra is man-repellent to most guys out there.
