Today’s strip
Gahhhh! Something has eaten away the flesh on Bull’s right ankle, leaving only exposed and picked-clean bone keeping his foot attached to his body. No wonder he’s hopping on his left foot.
Even more frightening than that, however, Les and Linda make an appearance.
Cayla opens with
Understatement of the year
Linda unimpressed
Husband’s health problems
Wordplay fodder for Linda
The way of Westview
It’s Batiuk’s party and he can pull long-absent characters out of his ass if he wants to. Mickey is Linda’s daughter from a previous whatever. I can’t get my hands on those Act I strips but as a teen, Mickey was seen hanging out at Montoni’s. Bull’s “how’s your kicking leg” query is only half in jest: if he can get away with putting the team mascot in the game, what’s to stop him from recruiting an adult female?
Even allowing the premise that Owen’s wacky touchdown catch started the Scapegoats’ winning streak, the team’s still had to play–and win–every game since. Can we give them at least a little credit? They’ve already faced their arch-rivals Big Walnut Tech during the season; they may not look forward to facing them again, but would the prospect cause them to “SHRIEEEEK!!” like girls? (And please don’t think me sexist for likening them to girls…they SHRIEEEEEK the same way, give or take an “E“.)
