IT MIGHT MATTER TO THE COURTS, DANNY
Anyway, I was legitimately kind of flirting with the idea of Dina being dead here, or at least permanently wounded. Don’t worry, though, and despite how she looks here, Dina will be fine.
Dina will always be fine.
Danny’s not a court, his statement stands. 😛
Dina is FINE, as Becky will attest!
I don’t know what I’m doing, Sal
G’morning!
Kill your friends
Excuse us.
To a good friend
Appropriate
She’d never act like YOU
What are you doing here?
Without him
Tolerable
Accommodate
A conversation involving Joe, Sal, and Danny (among others). Who has which lines is up to your imagination.
Who’s the girl?
She’s dying…
Gotta talk to Dina
Lovestruck nonsense
I’ll lay you down over there.
We’re goin’ out.
I met David
AUGH! WE’RE THERE!
Who WAS that kid?
Professor Doc needs me right away
Who WAS that kid?
If you’re interested, we could–
So you’re Billie’s little dork pal.
Howard’s in there.
A very bad and dirty thought
artist comments spoilers ! :[
Eh, it was the best he could do.
My hat’s off to this comment.
Walky’s expression in panel 4 slays me.

Also,
Has anyone ever seen Lost?
Because rereading this, you should really remember how so many things Charlie dodged.
NOT PENNY’S BOAT
Well, of course she’s fine. If you skip ahead to the end of Shortpacked! you see she’s there, alive and well. So, spoilers: Dina makes it through the long haul!
Well, as “fine” as you can be in a world that’s getting overrun by Soggies commanded by a rival toy store employee.
(ShortPacked was a weird strip, wasn’t it?)
Oh, that’s Alan, according to the tags. I was thinking it was weird that Dexter was looking so concerned for Dina.
Linda doesn’t really look human in that last panel.
So…why do people keep calling the HA Dexter? (this is my first time reading through the strip.)
That’s his name in Willis’s newer comic Dumbing of Age, where he’s just a cartoon character rather than an actual alien supervillian.
You’ve got the cause and effect backwards there. H.A.’s name is Dexter in the Dumbiverse cartoon because it was a fan nickname for him that originated back when these strips originally ran.
Head Alien got mirrored left-to-right by the Martian resurrection machine, and so where he was formerly Sinister, he’s now Dexter.
Also, “Dexter” distinguishes the resurrected (and reversed) HA from the original. Dexter = right, and his non-claw hand is now on the right.
Go back to the strip where the Head Alien exits the cloning tube, but before he’s confronted by Sal. Read the author notes.
Back when he was resurrected, he suddenly became right-handed (because cloning brings people back mirrored – handedness flips but it’s especially obvious when your off-hand is a claw).
And Dexter means right-handed.
Willis tried to kill Dina, but this was the best he could do.
you stop that
Since when have things at SEMMF ever been normal?
“…Trittst im Morgenrot daher”
Sal: Sorry I shot your girlfriend bro.
Walky: Actually she dumped me.
Sal: Oh, well fuck her then
Of course, Dina’s a scientist. And a scientist is always fine.
Willis, I would say you’re kinda rough with your toys. But, I see pictures of them all time and they look fine. Fine. Like Dina will always be…
