Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for April 02, 2021

You should have pushed Merryweather down first R.J. Then you could have landed on her.

Interesting face profile in panel 3.

It’s a shame his luck wasn’t any better. He could have been like Westley and Buttercup falling into the Fire Swamp.

So we see R.J. dropping fifteen feet or so, at the end of which he appears to still be at the tree line, so let’s add another fifteen feet or so to that fall, which ends on pointy rocks.

Thereafter, R.J. is still able to make a joke that refers to a movie made years before he was born.

Talk about more Rip traits! I’m starting to suspect that not only is R.J. immortal too, but that he also has an instinctive knowledge of cultural trivia!

Mud looks like blood, blood-red or larva

Fortunately, he broke the fall with his face. And yeah, it’s pretty impressive referencing a movie that was made probably 15 years before he was born.

I has never heards of this movie.

That looks like fun! Well, at least until the sudden drop.

Yeah, he’s a Rip off the old block.

I also went to the Michael Douglas/Kathleen Turner scene.

Looks more like the Prince’s Bride tumble.

Kathleen Turner = Pointy Rocks

Draway called it yesterday. +1 for Draway.

What timing, we were just talking about that movie this week.

KA-POINTY ROCKS!

Ouch! talk about a rough landing!

As I recall his face landed on her groin.

Coincidentally, I just watched “Romancing the Stone” like 2 weeks ago. Michael Douglas landed in a better spot.
