Plot Contrivance, thine name be Batuik! In Today’s Strip, Tombat keeps piling up the goofiness to higher levels of unreliability. Gee, sorry you can’t get your PENS Darrin but the dock workers are striking to cut the amount of limbs crushed by shipping containers down to no more than ten a month.

Turning JaPENese
So much of FW’s humor is based on the quest for the Holy Grail, be it a Starbucks Jones comic or the address for some doddering old man. Today’s Strip is more of the same!
Have these schmucks never heard of Amazon?! If the pen is so damn rate how did he get it in the first place? And since when did Darrin turn into such a delicate genius?
Sorry, strip, we already have one quirky writer, we don’t need another.
Gee, I wonder who is updating Montoni’s pizza app during all of this?
Mighter Than The Sword
SoSfDavidO here with another snark! Looks like Darrin is still moping about his damn pen missing. Nothing left to do but lean back and… WHOA! What’s going on in today’s strip?!
Zip it up, Darrin, or at least give Pete a 1-minute warning!
A Pensive Moment
SosfDavidO here, and from the looks of the unfinished, non-punchline in today’s strip we’re off and running with this week’s (months?) plotline.
Oh yeah, a missing favorite pen. It’s a comedy goldmine, I tell you. This stuff writes itself!
Hollywoo Stars And Celebrities
This is your captain SoSfDavidO speaking as we approach LAX, I’d like to warn you I’ll be your snarker for the next two weeks! In other words, comedy turbulence ahead!
It looks like the famous duo of Pete and Darin are flying “Back Home” in today’s strip to the Bojack Horseman multiverse where the Hollywood sign lost the D.

Yep, they’re a real power couple, aren’t they? Judging from the fact they’re practically sitting in each others laps and the classic, cheap pube-hair upholstery on their seats, I’d venture they’re flying coach.
But hey, they’re home! Darin makes no mention of the wife and baby, wherever those plot devices are. We’ll probably see them again at Thanksgiving and Christmas and only then. You can’t have them cramping these two genius’s lifestyles!
