    How long have you been away? From the looks of little BFB, long enough for R.J. and Sopapilla to have married and have kids of their own. I don’t even want to speculate about what is going to happen when you check in on Breezy, or where Dutch and TNT are buried. Not everyone is immortal, and life goes on, or ends, as the case may be, for the rest of us.

    Merry Christmas, Rip!

    P.S. I’m still hoping against hope that Rip will wake up and realize this whole adventure, from before the launch of the Skull Rocket until now has all been a fever dream induced by a nasty Covid 19 infection. If the writers for Dallas could get by with such a hokey trick, why shouldn’t we cut Dan T some slack too?

    Or maybe Brainzo is still jerking Dan T and the rest of us around? I’m hoping we see something similar to 2019’s Christmas Eve strip again this year.

    Uhhh …. isn’t she the babysitter, Rip? BTW, Mom is just returning from a trip, and it seems that she is just unlocking the front door … right now.

    Now that I have re-read the strip, and see that in the first frame Rip jumps from the sleigh without a parachute, I have more faith that this is just additional Brainzo shenanigans.

    Indeed, the more I think about the last few months, the more my head swims. It would take a week or more to set forth all the times the plot went haywire over the last few months, but when we have Brainzo, in the guise of Cobra, arguing with May-Bee, a complete figment of Brainzo’s imagination, over which of them is Rip’s type, I cannot help but wonder if Brainzo needs to see her or his own Shrinkzo.

    Rip just said goodbye to Santa Claus, so I’m guessing he’s still in a Brainzo mind game.

    I still think he could be dreaming since hitting his head after dropping off the Skull rocket.

    Is this real, or is this another one of Brainzo’s tricks?

    More than long enough, Rip. It’s time to get to know your family all over again.

    Maybe Rip is going be invisible to his family for a bit while he “checks in” on Christmas future?
