Before I got to the final panel my initial reading was that Mike found a Walky-lookalike and murdered him for wasting his time, which seemed like something of a step above Mike’s usual level.
And honestly, “Team Shortpacked!” as a name would make perfect in-universe sense, even if it weren’t for Robin’s genre savviness. It is how they all know each other, after all.
Come to think of it, I’m wondering exactly where the wedding takes place relative to SP! It has to be after “This Man– This Manhattan,” for obvious reasons, I’m pretty sure it’s gotta be before “Jacob Travels to the Penis Building,” for reasons related to [SPOILERS]… those aren’t very far apart in the archives. Somewhere within “Book 10?”
I do kinda wonder what Mike would have been like going forward if he hadn’t died immediately after realizing just how horrible his actions really were.
Part of me wanted to believe Mike actually did that, tho
Considering his fate in the Dumbiverse…
Mike would do it and then visit him in the hospital to see if he could talk him into returning to the same site again, but Mike wouldn’t lie about it.
Ultra Car might have face blindness, Mike is Mike, and this search and destroy, um, rescue is faltering.

At first glance I thought this was a reference to Cyclonus imagining shoving Whirl into a smelting pit, but this strip predates that by a few years.
It’s almost like finding a long-lost Shortpacked! strip.

Hahahahahaha! It’s true Amber and Dorothy are drawn the same. Before reading the tags, I was wondering how Dorothy was involved the search. Hahaha.
That this was not a color page did not help things.
Walkyverse Amber *is* Walkyverse Dorothy. Have you ever seen them together? I don’t think so.
Pfft, don’t be ridiculous, Walkyverse Dorothy is Spider-Car!
I will enjoy this Mike content, thank you.

Wait, so only the events of the last panel actually happened? I’m kinda disappointed.
