Plod Holes

Owen, who spends most of his life immersed in science fiction and fantasy get a funny “Glitch in the Matrix” feeling when he starts to do the math on Wedgeman. He’s on the verge of calling bullshit on it, too, in today’s comic . Come on kids, bring it home! You’ve been in high school for as long as you can remember. Think back, do you even remember Jr. High?

Allzinger’s Disease

I’d sure feel sorrier for these three nerds in today’s comic if nerd culture hadn’t exploded with the rise of the internet and now everyone is clamoring to show off their geek credentials. Every other damn movie is a comic book movie and they’re making bazillions. Comicon is anticipated more than a rock concert and uber nerds like Elon Musk are considered chic. Hell, everyone is walking around with the internet in their pockets. I haven’t seen anything from these two in the past ten years that screams nerd to me. A Green Lantern shirt and Loki Bobblehead doesn’t cut it anymore. You got picked on by Wedgeman? So did everyone else. No one understands you? Get in line. Or better yet, Alex, drop the sad mime look and make yourself presentable.

Going Unsteady

Aw, check it out, a sight-gag! Much like a exploding vacuum cleaner or face full of chimney soot, at least this is a comic I understand. Today’s comic still has those rascals obsessing over Wedgeman’s ring. It’s unhealthy. And hopefully Wedgeman’s main squeeze finds a better way to support that massive chunk of metal or coach is going to have to come over to rehab her back.

Deep Impression

So the hang is rightfully concerned about being punched by Wedgeman, re-enforcing the “bullying is funny” theme Tombat has been running with for the last 40 years. However, given the amount of already-misshapen heads we’ve seen wandering the halls at Westview High I can’t help but to wonder if they’ve mostly all already been punched.

Its a Rang Thang

Today’s strip give us one last chance to catch up with this rag-tag group of Westview misfits before sailing off into the sunset, other than the obvious matter of the Comix Corner and Montoni’s being the only places of employment in town so they’re bound to end up there. Late in the game, Tombat’s introduced us to the twin sisters that could conceivably shoulder the responsibility of being the students FW focuses on for the next five to eight years.
