The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for May 17, 2017

Rooks like he’s not welcome here.

If there’s only a front door, how do the pawns leave?

Mongo is his best customer.

He’s cutting out 50% of potential clients.

Don’t go in, you’ll just get rooked.

He wanted to know if they accepted checks.

Can I pay by cheque, Mate?

Come back at knight.

Would he say that to the king?

You just know the Queen is gonna be a transvestite.

This could easily have been a black-v.-white racial gag.

Exceptionally clever. Although, most of Hilburn’s comics are clever.

Aw, poor thing, go cry to the bishop.
