Transcript:
Man: You're back from the Haywire house! Did the dame still have the keys? And did she finally replace those awful curtains in her room? Man: They key was there! River Jack will be most pleased, despite my bad news about the curtains! Pilot: Sorry, boys, we're grounded - big hurricane is headed directly into our flight path. Man: You will start the engines, amigo - Man: What's more dangerous right now - a bullet or some tropical winds? Pilot: Beverage service will be suspended, there's a $50 luggage fee for your guns, and nobody better sue me for whiplash afterward! Man: You should be a motivational speaker, Santo.

Big Whoop County must be a storm chaser’s dream. Blizzards in the winter, tornadoes and hurricanes!

Big Whoop County is a pretty dangerous place to live…Which of course is why the Haywire’s enjoy living there!

Sounds like most airlines. Charges on top of charges. Give it to the little people every chance they can.

Dan, I like the tilted second panel. Reminds me of the tilted camera angles they always used for the villans in the original campy Batman TV series. It was to emphasize that the villans were not “on the level.”Or were you just trying to fit in more of the plane?

If I say’ I was trying to fit the plane in’…will you hold it against me? Seriously, I just thought it looked cool slanted instead of straight.

“Tropical winds”, he says..I’ve dealt with quite a few of those “tropical winds” in my home country. I think it’s safe to say whiplash will be the very least of their problems…
