Oh, no! Scott is shot! And it looks like at least two of those rounds came from behind, from sympathetic fellow officers who saw Adrian’s picture and knew what had to be done.

Spider-Man, 9/25/09

Apparently when it comes to splatterin’ spiders, Bigshot is a less effective villain than Garfield. Pack it in, fella.

Mark Trail, 9/25/09

Oh, don’t worry about Rusty, Mark. He doesn’t need to outrun the gator — he just needs to outrun Sassy.

Dick Tracy, 9/25/09

OK, you three. Will somebody for the luvva Pete please just shut up and eat somebody? Please?

“Oh, my goodness, Ms. Merrill, you almost stepped in front of that bus!! Oh, and by the way, how’re you doing on that ‘prescription’ I wrote for you?”

Mother Goose and Grimm, 9/24/09

“Costumes or no costumes, fellas, “Talk Like a Pirate” Day was last Saturday — why don’t we try a nice technology joke instead?”

Mark Trail, 9/24/09

I got nuthin’ — except Mark and the turtle in the same relaxed pose, with the same adorable expression. Hope it starts a trend!

Thanks to the many readers who managed to contribute despite yesterday’s annoying server problems! Generous and persistent — what’s not to love about Comics Curmudgeon readers? I’m assured the servers are back to ‘normal’ (which, alas, does not mean ‘fixed’), so readers and contributors should have an easier time today.

Special Request: Once you’ve received your “What Would Margo Do?” bracelet (the first ones should be arriving today!), would you please forward a photo of it on your wrist for me to post here? The address is uncle.lumpy@comcast.net — cellphone pix are fine. Thanks!

After the endless wallow of Lisa Moore’s final illness in 2007, it’s a relief to learn that the author can dispatch a character promptly, with grace and dignity, in this quiet image of a promise there was no time left to keep. God bless you, Ed, and farewell.

Hey, a guy can dream.

Luann, 9/24/09

“Darlin’ if you got the bucks, you can do whatever you want. Words to live by. Remember how quick your parents caved for a cheesy gift card? Lesson learned, right? Now listen, put this on and stand over there – nobody’s gonna watch. Close your eyes and keep quiet – there’s a twenty in it for ya! Snap!

Operation H-Town update: Mary Worth, 9/24/09
