   I like this strip. I do; I read it every day. But it’s difficult not to acknowledge that “Video Village” and “Boom or Bust” references aside, this has been a very disappointing storyline. There was very little to it, and regardless of the menace of the fake “Time Bomb” bomb, not much suspense. This felt very mechanical and uninspired. I remain a reader, and even a faithful one, but the strip hasn’t been involving for a while.
