Hey now, we’re civilized here — we’ll bring up charges and then conduct a lightning fast trial. You’ll only be penalized once you’re convicted and assuming this is a first offense you’ll likely only get a short grounding.
Oh, never mind, based on your history and likely resistance to rectification it looks your treatment is beyond our capacity …
I like the fanatical stage-energy Monkey Master’s giving off here. Wouldn’t have minded if he’d remained essentially in charge of his own villainous plans from here on out, instead of how things worked out for him.
But I gotta say, Sal and Jason’s vibe is really not doing it for me. We’d only just seen them get together in the previous story and now practically every word he says to her is angry and abusive (tune in tomorrow for what he thinks will be his last words to her: they won’t be better). Yes sure, he’s trying to run a cohesive paramilitary unit and she’s acting like she’s the star of her own superhero show and those two things are not compatible. But I get very little sense that Jason’s tried dealing with this problem in some way other than impotent yelling, and it’s a little weird that Sal so completely doesn’t get it, given how much time they’ve spent together and the fact that she’s already served under him in Squad 128.
Yeah, dating your boss can louse up your work performance, but STILL.
I know this is about trying to bring in some fresh drama, and since all the old Squad 128ers were either paired off or dead, somebody had to develop post-finale relationship troubles. But this was such a radical swerve from their last few appearances that it seemed like Jason stopped wanting what he couldn’t have as soon as he got it and Sal started idealizing her new love to the point that she didn’t even notice Jason was miserable. Rather than going “Oh no, not Sal and Jason, their love was so pure!” I sorta went “Geez, looks like those two should never have gotten together in the first place.”
Nah

Nah, probably just get grounded.
I like how Jason’s snark went from annoying to great in these new strips.
Unfortunately I don’t have Paypal so….does throwing money at the screen works?
Thanks to denial, Sal
is immortalwill defeat Electric Man!Find yourself someone who believes in you as much as Monkey Master has faith in the Electric Man.

BLIF? I’m unable to even envision (Enhear?) how this sounds in the real world….
… it sounds like “BLIF”.
You’ve never heard a blif?
It’s the sound the Berkeley Logic Interchange Format makes.
It’s like a blit, but it kind of trails off softly at the end.
