Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for October 15, 2024

Shaggy knows he’s about to lose his lunch money.

Nice to see Orville Redenbacher again.

“Barbarino, Vinnie?” “That’s my name, don’t wear it out.”

Bueller? Bueller?

It is October 15. Does this teacher not know the names of his students yet or have a seating chart that he can see quickly who is or isn’t there quickly so he doesn’t have to call out names (as well as last, then first names as well)? Also wouldn’t Lucas have come to him and asked where to sit? If not, wouldn’t Mr. Redenbacher ask who he was and if he was in the right place? So many questions!

Will the new artist finish the correspondence course module on drawing faces soon?

Is Stan Marino going to be the new quarterback?

P1- Always thought MHS was a 2 story. It’s easy to go up and add another story when you have wildly profitable fundraisers like lift-a-thoms, candy and vape sales.

Love that Milford has decided to repurpose old coastal resort hotels into Midwestern school buildings. Waste not, want not!

Let’s hope the metal detector was in front of the school this morning and operational.

Once again, Gil manages to pilfer a troubled kid who just happens to be the best athlete in the school (with the exception of “Tobias”, of course).

If it wasn’t for the title above, would anyone be able to identify this strip?

Mystery of the week: Why is Orville raising his hand during roll call?

The action never stops.

“Stan Marino?”

“That’s an independent principality, not part of Italy.”

Ooh, the new Milford High gives us another clue to the location. That looks like the Grand Hotel on Mackinaw Island. Looks like they even have valet parking! But it makes for long travels to road games. And is that kid being called in P1 Dan Marino’s son? Or grandson? And speaking of being called, you are being called to read the latest edition of Mopped Up Thorp.

Some kids pass notes, Lucas passes shivs.

P3: Kathy Griffin has a real p!ssed off look about being dragged into GT and not getting a mention.

Pupil? When’s the last time anybody used that word?

I like the new artist. She has a cool style.

is the teacher playing pocket pool to the ghost girls sitting in the front ?

i guess gils favorite coach pops left all his money so milford could build a new school bigger then milford university

Lucas might be Jay Leno’s son with that chin.

Vito from Goshen sent in someone to control the point spread, since Gil is circling the drain.
