Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 31, 2024

Random sentences strung together.

Gil throws his arm out of its socket while trying to put the golf club in his back pocket.

I think the only con will be coming from Pedro.

Purple shirt and tan slacks! Pink Shoe Laces?

By the way, where’s Luke Jr? Oh, yeah. We put him on the greyhound. Pick him up on Friday.

In all reality, hell no I’ll never forgive you ! Now get lost or I’ll get Henry to erase you.

P1- Stand up guy Luke would say, “HOW MUCH was the comic con thing Gil?”

Nice of Gil to neglect to mention the fun he had…in the cockpit late at night with Hillary. And speaking of fun, what is more fun than checking out Mopped Up Thorp?

Haha Jami….too bad for you…this is turning out to be the “Summer of Peanut”

P1.5 Gil: “And I got to meet the greatest comic writer of our time! It was amAAAAAzing!”

P1, P2: The exploding golf balls were being used at the driving range. The fallout from that continues over the rest of the course.

I think teenagers wanting to use phones to talk is the most unrealistic thing this strip has done.

Today’s strip reminds me of an old Popeye cartoon, where the Indian Chief sings: “Me, big Chief Mugawump! Me gotta have a squaw.” So, what we learn today is: Keri was and still is the only girl in town that ever fell for his come on.

maybe keri can hit him in the head with a five iron and he can take another helicopter ride

meanwhile meemaw has sunk jamis battleship

He WAS just talking! Why i it HIS fault? It takes two to tango.

P4 “JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA! Yas! Now kiss me you fool!”

P1- Is that Godzilla behind Luke? It can’t be a tree or a building.

P3- Be nice Keri. The poor guy has some awful thing growing out of his neck.

So, if I’m to understand this, Gil and Peanut have decided to play a round of golf together and thought it to be a good idea to complete their foursome with Luke n’ pedro, despite the recent history between P and P? Or did Gil and peanut just coincidentally run into L and P on the course?

P 2 (Peanut Thorp): “…and I met the writer of this strip while I was there and he has agreed that you are a pain in the a$$, so after today, you won’t be here anymore, however Biatuk has agreed to put you in Crankshaft…hahahaaaaaaaa…”

P3.5:Keri: “No.”
