It may have happened at Angel Bluff, but the Howells are no doubt going in the opposite direction and will soon find it’s a very short drive (dive?) for them between the Devil and the deep blue sea.
I now think they’ll survive. If they were dead, I think they’d be clearly dead in today’s strip. That the suspense is being kept up makes me think they aren’t.
2-DT: Ummm, you oughta wear a hat Primm. Everybody knows the snow and rain around here are full of caustic chemicals. Oh well Red. Too late now. What say we have a last word for the dearly departed…
3-…Though their world was full of sorrow, at least for me, there’s always tomorrow. Amen! STOP SKIPPING ROCKS PRIMM! It’s disrespectful!
The cigarillos are not the only things that have been extinguished. The Howells sleep with the fishes. Still, Tracy is ever the pro and calls for the proper assistance just in case. The third panel is especially Gouldian. The snowflakes fall, as did the Howells.
Tracy’s waxing philosophical pretty much puts the seal to this arc. The divers, we can presume, will find the station wagon with two lifeless bodies in it.
Aside from Frisk’s miscolored hair, today’s art is good, not least the noir-ish touches….

Good morning™, high court judges!
There is actually an Angel Bluff northwest of Chicago, but it’s just east of the Mississippi River, not on the coast.
It does look like a bridge to me now.
What horrible thing has GoComics suddenly done to Frisk’s hair!?

A cold, bleak, snowy day (or night) of judgement for the Howells…

I agree with Tracy, the supreme judge just took the Howells case.

It looks like the Howells are “dead fish dead”…

Better red than dead!
At least we know it wasn’t redrum!
Maybe now we can find out who Ms. Astin gives her money to.

As I (and many others) predicted….DOOM for the Howells….

Sounds just like something I would say, Tracy. And watch you get backlash from realists that say it doesn’t exist. Just what do they know?

I very impressed that Frisk immediately dyed her hair after narrowly escaping death.

Frisk was so scared, her hair turned… purple?

Wild card= The doors popped open on impact, and the Howells got away to return in the future!

Frisk didn’t want to get involved, so she quickly dyed her hair in order to hide her identity.

A lackluster ending to a lackluster story
File this one under “stories that should never have seen print”
Kinda cute how Fred and Wilma went out the same way Frisky did innit?

1-DT: Listen Primm! Those bubbles hold their last words. You’ll hear them when they burst.
POPPING BUBBLES: ‘IDIOT’ ‘MORON’ ‘SHADDUP’ ‘NO’ ‘YOU’ ‘SHADDUP’ ‘GOT’ ‘ANY’ ‘MATCHES?’

I certainly won’t shed a tear for them. The Great Mystery can judge them as he sees fit.
