Wrongo! I grew up in southwestern PA and drank every cheap beer that came my way in my youth. Iron City was worst way before Coors Light was introduced in the dark days of the ’80s.

Rule of thumb: Never drink Iron City unless it’s on draft, and you’re in Allegheny County, and you have a shot of Jim Beam first to numb your tongue. 😀

In reply to Leon Arnott (l).

“I think Artie has peculiar musical tastes, due partly to possessing a different hearing range than humans, and partly to being Artie.”

This… this line is awesome. Prior to reading this, I have thought of so many hilarious ways this idea could be applied to so many non-human characters (usually robots), but I’ve never seen it phrased this perfectly.

Given today’s technology, the last panel on Thursday’s comic looks like Dave is taking a picture of Mell’s butt with a cellphone.

Much-belated Big Freakin' (tm) Gun count: I'm assuming this is still the same gun from last week so it doesn't count. Holding at 4.

“Yoinks” goes back to the Scooby-Doo cartoons. I’m surprised there’s no mention of that on that page.

I, for my part, LIKE the flyaway eyebrows. Just thought I'd mention it.

Howzabout Mastermind Mell?

Villain? Mell? Nawww ... she'd be a hero that blows up villains. Eliminate the competition, right? Plus, after you get rid of bad guys, people cheer for you and give you stuff! I can just imagine Mell smiling and shaking the President's hand, while thinking *you poor gullible fool ... heh heh heh*.

*SPOILER* Just remember what Mell will be like when she starts studying law, and how she interacts with her classmates. *END SPOILER*

Saturday's Comic: Yoink.

I love the fact that Mell's eyebrow in panel 3 is actually curling all the way around. You should've pursued this logical continuation of your unique art style!

Today is a good day to notice for the first time that Mell's neck is unnaturally thin and elastic. Superhero Mell with Mr. Fantastic powers confirmed?
