Today’s script might be read as exonerating the Reeve, but I’m still not sure about him. What is clear is the mode of Jumbler’s villainy (yes, including abuse of the doggie). His target is less clear; does the Reeve’s bag include the whole day’s proceeds of the fair?
I had forgotten that the Jumbler’s apartment had boxes of Ball Bearings. But I WAS right—he was there to steal the dough. Now how do you suppose he got out through the slipping cosplayers?
This cheesy slimebaln won’t last long! Obiviously someone is going to notice him as the only person on his feet making a run for the door! Just because he has an obsession for puzzles doesn’t make him a genius!
Just getting around to reading the strip now… to those who offered St. Paddy’s Day greetings, thanx… after three parades, four pubs for tips and one hired pub gig, this bagpiper is happy to settle down with the comics, a non-Guinness beverage, and the knowledge that I will not have to look at “Danny Boy” for about eleven months.
By the way, does that dog in the throw-away panel look like Doctor Who’s K-9??

Back in college, a friend had a Ren party, where everyone had to come in period costume. I went as a plague rat.

Tear gas? He should have had a sword in that cane, at the very least…. Another one of those criminals who prefers not to use deadly force, it seems!

I thought it was a gun cane, and he was aiming it at that woman with the pointy hat

I just checked, it was “60s Fan” who called the ball bearings

Wasn’t there a theft using a similar concept in the original “Thomas Crown Affair”?

Tracy was suspicious, and now everyone can take this dude seriously.

Mysta changed her outfit today to celebrate the ball bearings. Also because she was afraid of getting pinched.

Reminds me of the scene from the movie Animal House where Flounder pours marbles across the street during a parade..

Oh, it is DT. I thought for a minute I was looking at old Batman comics from the 1960’s.
