The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for January 19, 2023

They don’t have a ghost of a chance for a conviction.

Oh sheet, you’ve been ghosted!

I don’t give a sheet what you think.

Okay, I will be the one to ask. If there is no body, how do they know there was really a crime? Oh wait, I am just over thinking a comic. Never mind. LOL

How do they manage to hold up their holsters???!!!

I don’t have no body!

In the Spirit World legal law, then, there is no “Habeas Corpus.”

I see they have their ghost guns.

And it’s happening now in Massachusetts.

I bet it was PacMan!

Are the guns loaded with silver bullets?

I initially thought the pics were teeth. I had tooth fairy and Molar-iority jokes all set up. Sigh.

Thought they were, “DEfunded ?

They were ghosted!

I shall softly and silently vanish away like a boojum!

Reminds me of that famous Mills Brothers song “I ain’t got no body”.

At first I thought they were teeth – that would’ve worked, too!

(With apologies to Sam Cooke)

Another Saturday night and we ain’t got no body

His sheet went missing ’cause he just got killed

But that means that we’re still ali-ive

I’m baffled but I’m really thrilled

They all look like Ghost-faced Killa. Must be a real challenge for Boolice Sketch Artist.

But the perp looks remorseful.

Well, sheet!

Producing a body is completely ir’revenant’ in this case!!

RIPD

Don’t need to call anyone the suspect is already busted

The corpse is immaterial. Literally!

The LA Ghost Police…

if A ghost is the soul or spirit of a deceased person, which appears or otherwise makes its presence known to the living: why are they depicted with clothing?

Ghost busters? The sheet you say!

Um, how to you kill a ghost? Do they become living again? If they are already dead, is it really a crime? If so, Ghost Busters are in deep Kimchi.

I don’t need no body.

guess he doesn’t have to worry about corporal (corporeal?) punishment, then…

How does he know he has the right suspect? They all look alike to me.
