I never understood this. In the last strip no one was at the meeting, and in this strip he returns as if he just had his meeting. Is he putting all the others on?
He said it – this is the way you always look when you return from having appeared before the head beagle. I don’t think it was a statement of fact, but a recital of an obligation.
For those saying the code is fake because of the four C’s, actual Roman nomenclature for the ancient times often used only the additive notation (IIII or CCCC) instead of the subtractive notation (IV or CD), especially in “official” documentation. So, technically, it is correct.
If Marty is the nephew of both Danger and Hugo, that pretty much means the dead guy is Danger’s brother or brother in law. (Unless perhaps Marty is married, which I think we can all agree is highly unlikely.

The way he talks about the Head Beagle, you would swear he’s some kind of deity.

I’m disappointed. I was hoping we could see what this Head Beagle looks like.
But then again, If I had nightmares for a week then I would never read this strip again.
Haha.
