Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for January 27, 2025

Holy anti-climax Batman!

Awww, Rip’s poor giggling fists didn’t get to pummel anyone!

Not even a mil. Half.

Disgraceful.

he descended a non existent ladder in the first panel

Like Romeo and Juliet. Except for all the pesky details.

Two for the money, two on the floor, and two for the morgue!!!

But she no wanted grampy to shoot and kill a fatso earlier and even almost gots killed for that. Maybe the plothole she fells into changing her mind eh.

Wow what a dark turn of events!

Ka crazy wrap up. I’ve now read from 2009 through December 2022. I’m now rereading from when I started this strip. My work and family can be both rewarding and stressful. Reading this strip has helped me stay balanced with much needed laughter. I will be forever grateful to Dan and his great followers for making me lmao when it helped the most. ❤️

Nice when a plan comes together…

If Owen survives, will he try to plead something like “justifiable homicide”?

Poor Rip!! I don’t think he’s hit anyone in quite some time.

Now, where’s the money? My bet is on Mary Worth. Retirement is a costly proposition, and she’s a shifty old babe!

That scenario definitely explained the fists not giggling in first panel.

Oh, dear! Now Rip will have to haul two corpses up that non-existent ladder out of the secret tunnel.

But where is the money?

KA-STRANGLE!

Looks like the case is closed. (Or is it?)

Ka-holy plot twist Ripman. :)

Frame 1 – the sharp chin of justice!

Wow… This case really solved itself, didn’t it?

So is this the end of our platinum blonde villainess?

Well…. I guess that saved the cost of a KA-trial!

The problem seems to have solved itself. As long as the money is down there somewhere.

That’s all folks
