Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for June 30, 2022

“Sometimes, All I need is the air that breath, and to have breakfast…….”

No checklist before descending?

Usually it’s a pressure gauge and will say “0 psi” .

They should have brought some plants with them. The plants would have turned the CO2 back into O2.

Asleep at the wheel. Don’t drink and bore into the center of the earth.

Wonder what happens at the gravity shift? Our down direction is their up. Was there a period of chaos, or simply gravity flips? Bet writer didn’t think about that any more than characters in strip didn’t think, “Hey, people need to breathe!”

End of story. well, it was nice while it lasted.

If you mean Chuck (P)Berry I might say: “Yup-i-doo! He was right:”

Drillin’ along in our downgomobile

Our Doris just fainted and streched the heel

A valve, a hiss at the turn of last mile

A cure for suffocation I’m seekin’ wild

Cussin’ and prayin’ more in the ratio

With no Pellucidar place to go…

But I would bore 500 miles

And I would bore 500 more

Just to be the man who bores a thousand miles

To fall down at your door

Da da da (da da da)

Da da da (da da da)

Should have pre-paid your oxygen bill……

Well, bye byes, short term supporting characters. Our hero will take things forward by himself from here.

So… did they just do a really lousy job planning the logistics from the get go, forget that bringing an extra person along, i.e., Tarzan, would require more resources, or both?

Tomorrow: They’re dead, Jim.

Saturday: New comic in this space.

He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston he’s the man who never returned.
