Things are very busy for me this weekend– in case I don’t get around to posting tonight’s comic, here’s how I think it’s gonna go down…
This is a guess, only. I can’t see the future!

Which improbable plot point is he gawking at now?
Where to even start!? Tommy B has left us hanging yet again (Lost was spewing out answers faster than this claptrap) as he streeeetches what should have been two day’s worth of strips into a full 6 days. What is Wideload gawking at? I’m guessing it could be any one of the numerous, ridiculous plotlines that have been juggling in and out of Westview for the past 10 to 50 years, depending on how you’re viewing the time jumps, which I’m starting to think are Bautick’s way of getting around the fact it takes a character six full days to go to the post office to open a letter.
I’m doing something on my end: it’s called reading.
My guest blogging duties are ending soon, so I’d like to pose the following question to all my fellow snarkers; if you could spend one evening alone with a FW character, which would it be? There would be no witnesses, and there would already be a hastily-dug grave in a weed-choked lot waiting for you…
That *is* supposed to be a thumb, right?
I’d worry less about “what’s going on” and focus more on getting to a hospital; your thumb is on backwards! This is the first real look at the damage the PT Cruiser’s accident caused, though, as Epicus Doomus
pointed out, from the looks of panel two a few days ago, it appears that Funky’s internal organs all got shifted into his ass-region from the impact.
The storyline moved so slowly that it went backwards.
Could this storyline take any longer!? Theories about a possible time slip seem to be accurate, and it now looks like Funky has stepped back in time– how far is anyone’s guess, but from the lack of steam-trains, horse-drawn wagons and dinosaurs, it can’t be too long ago. Knowing Funky, he’s going to screw something up; or is this all building towards to Grand Finale, where he’s able to fix everything? At the speed the story is being told, Funky won’t even be reaching into his pocket for his spare set of keys until sometime in mid-August.
The Omega Man
Funky seems to have bumped his head a bit harder than it first appeared last Sunday. By now, it’s clear something is going on.
1. Maybe he’s got a mild concussion and is having a pleasant little dream before waking up to his crashed PT Cruiser.
2. Maybe his brains are splattered all over the PT’s shrapnelized plastic dashboard and now even the most seasoned paramedics are puking their guts out on the side of the road as they try and collect what body parts they can.
In either case, he’s wandering around some sort of alternate version of Westview, perilously close to blundering into another time jump. Think Funky’s gut and balding head look bad now? What do you think another ten years would do to him? Do we really want to see Pete and Summer’s love child!?
