No, Mindy, what you should do now is glance at your wristwatch, look alarmed and declaim “Oh, my, I’d better hurry if I’m going to catch my flight to Borneo! I wouldn’t want to miss this year’s leprosy festival!” (And as she leaves Mopey Pete says “Can you make a deal with them for chips?”)
There is absolutely no reason to believe that these two people have any skill for running a restaurant, and a guy who dresses in pizza boxes probably won’t be much help, either. Why do they think they would be any more successful at keeping this place open than Montoni was?
My bet: Another week of this insanity, because Tom’s Law Of Comics means every arc ends after 3 weeks. And on 11/4 it will be the PBM taking off its head, with them startled! “IT’S—IT’S YOU!” with an offpanel cutaway not showing who it is, so he can drag it out months later. Maybe before Middling can yell “You’re—my father—JOHN DARL—!” Or someone else who will make you go “Uh-Huh” and then go read a good comic.
Schulz had The Great Pumpkin. Mr. Writer has pizza box monster guy. So glad Mr. Writer was able to keep this Halloween tradition alive. Brilliant, just brilliant. The handful of scattered leaves in panel one are nice.

I would like to pre order two of my favorite large pizzas for delivery please…1 pineapple and anchovy with extra cheese and 1 sausage, mushroom, olives and green peppers.
Someone wearing this costume couldn’t see and would seem to have limited mobility and yet for years Funky and his group of buffoons at Montoni’s could never catch him???

What a great idea for a Halloween costume… except for the expense, aggravation, work, impracticality…
never mind. (Emily Litella)

To complete his costume, shouldn’t that guy be wearing boxing gloves?

Yeah, sure, let’s risk our financial security with some nut job who dresses in pizza boxes and we don’t even know who it is.
I’m guessing they’ll have to reveal his identity since this guy isn’t going to be able to sign legal financial documents with “Pizza Monster”.

Tread carefully….don’t get boxed in to a deal that might go as South as the original Montoni’s did.

Montoni’s can be back in business with new managers (Mindy included) and a new outlook on how to sell pizza!

The pizza man is usually surprising, running, and disappearing. This is likely just someone wearing their pizza man Halloween costume.
