No need to tell them about sockness monster training.

“I can” (Joe confesses, as he holds up a very calloused and scarred left wrist).

Actually, both of you could…Joe started it with the sockness monster training and Doug just honed those skills…

The value of a comic is not measured by the number of lame comments, but by the quality of its content. This is an excellent strip.

Robb is the master of the extended setup!

I think credit should go to the Sockness Monster…

Was it Delray that gave Joe Mortimer?

Did Mortimer think the pistol was the Sockness Monster?

The Sockness Monster paid off!

Brooke McEldowney doesn’t even allow comments on 9 chickweed Lane which I think is lame.

Straightlace shouldn’t have used a gun that looked so much like the Sockness Monster.

Hey, Joe! Did the Chief had a bone to pick with you yet? You better start running because the twister’s at your back door.
