Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for April 12, 2022

Panel 4 looks exactly like the Sheriff.

Yup, it’s a real drag to come home only to find out that your family has moved and didn’t tell you. Don’t ask me how I know that…

I believe a guy named Bob shot the sheriff.

RJ is being treated like a sharp-chinned step-child.

They left pancakes. Life is still good. :)

Abandonment is a bitch, but at least there are still pancakes in the rip-verse!!

That’s the trouble with time travel, too many unintended consequences can occur. I just hope Rip didn’t leave his cellphone back in the 1980s.

KA-LEFT BEHIND!

At least he’s no longer being chased by that bounty hunter.

Recap, Pancakes . . . Now we’re talkin’.

I thought the hobo-like character mistook Rip for Rip’s doppelgänger.

He has become his father!

RJ, while brooding over that stack of pancakes, wouldn’t you think to look for clues as to where everybody went?
