Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
“We need you back. The team just can’t play without you sitting in your office drinking coffee laced with that Bourbon you keep in the bottom drawer of your desk.”
P 1.5 (Gil): “…no way, Jose’….I’m gettin’ a paycheck, bennies, and I work even less than I normally do…I ain’t leavin’ this gravy train until granny forces me to…I’m diggin’ daytime TV too…I just can’t get enough of Judge Judy…she’s hilarious!…”
Gil always struck me as more of a Sanka man. Beard boy here never saw action in Korea, unless it was some kind of “finding myself” college malarkey.
Remember last month, when Gil had a massive heart attack, from coaching stress? Gil does! Gil would rather not have another one. And sure, his assistant coaches simply cannot coax wins out of the Mudlarks, but was Gil ever that good at coaxing wins out of his team, really? Something to think about as he takes a long, luxurious sip of coffee. You know, it really is better when you make it in a French press, but who has the time? Well, Gil does, now!
The rich architectural detail, in contrast to the sketched out Goya-esque people, fascinates me. James Allen used to do that in Mark Trail with a controversial light box.
I think Gil is in Witness Protection. He’s lost weight, had plastic surgery to appear younger, grew a beard, and moved to a new house. And speaking of moving, you should be moving to the URL below to read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.
For having a massive heart attack at his age he sure looks healthy and fit. Good for time shift, like 1 year later, but I don’t get the feeling there’s been a time shift. As for the beard, my husband was bearded at intervals, once past the stubble stage it doesn’t hurt. It can even feel nice.

The artist isn’t able to make the characters look the same two strips in a row.

Luke: You’re drinking too much coffee, Your Excellency.
Gil: Excellency, fiddlesticks! My name’s Gil and I’m a man, same as you.
Luke: You’re not a man, you’re a coach, for God’s sakes.
Gil: There is no God…

P1: The “Thorp residence” seemingly looks different in every strip.
P2: Splitting the word “recover-ing” just looks awkward. Why not put “I’m still” on the top line and “recovering” on the second line?
P3: If that’s Gil Thorp, I’m Rush Limbaugh.

P-1: Now, the Bloggers have done it! Gil’s witless protection program has been discovered, and it will do no good to keep changing addresses!
P-1.5: Now, there’s an understatement.
P-2: When Gil reveals his new upholstering hobby, Cami nails him with a Non-Sequitur.
P-3: No, Gil. We think that might be coffee. Cream is usually a lot lighter.

This comic artist is like hitler. Nicely drawn buildings, but sucks at drawing people.

Hard to follow when none of the characters are recognizable.
