That’s my pal Doug (online handle “Monocle”) there in panel two, oohing at the spider. He likes spiders! Well, lady Predacon spiders, anyway.
I’ve been through customs. I think I’d prefer the Tarantugun.
Yeah but who doesn’t like Blackarachnia?
Dumb dummies, that’s who.
You’re from an entirely different universe Jason you’ll be a Foreigner no matter where you go on this planet.
No, he isn’t. That he’s not is important.
Took me a moment to get the plot joke there.
Jason isn’t that important yet methinks. That is if I remember right.
I’ll take robot spiders over the TSA any day. At least robot don’t (usually) steal your stuff for kicks.
“I’ve been through customs. I think I’d prefer the Tarantugun.”
Must have been quite a bad experience if you’d rather fight a giant robot spider then go through customs.
Jason’s line is… interesting, from hindsight.
Tarantuguns: Papers, please.
Big Boss: Mars so great, passport not required.
So like, did Mike actually hire (and underpay) somebody to do that back in the day? Because that would raise a lot of questions, I think.
Customs Dude: “So, do you have anything to declare?”
Me: “Here’s my list.”
Customs Dude: “That’s some pretty exotic weaponry.”
Me: “Yep.”
Customs Dude: “Welcome back to the States!”
