Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for July 08, 2024

What was your first clue?

The horse is smarter than Rip! Also good, he is getting much better(yes, thst can count as a double entendre).

Midnight looks to be sulking over Rip’s change in appearance.

Sorta of a hint I would say!!!

It’s a good thing Rip’s head is double-hulled.

So much for skulking! Have you heard about the Midnight Skulker?

What happened to the weekly Sunday strip?

An equine tree-hugger. Interesting.

Rip must have found the all night barber shop.

“Did you miss me?” “Yes, but give me a second to adjust the scope and I’ll try again.”

KA-DO-BADDERS!

Those fools. Don’t they know that shooting Rip only makes him angry?

AND HERE I THOUGHT THE CALL OF THE WILD WORE OFF! NOT FUNNY DAN!

Fortunately the baddies shot Rip in his least-vulnerable spot.

ka-badders-do

Midnight needs a bigger tree…

Sharp chin and a thick skull. That’s our Rip Haywire.

That escalated quickly.
