First, this comic is brought to you again by the good people who support me on Patreon, with a special shout-out to The Lurker, Paul Gabbard, Jeremy, and alphanor, who ALL became Mayor of Pucksburg for this month! It’s a title that comes with rewards, including actual original comic art getting mailed to you. If you’re interested in keeping the Puck comics flowing, and maybe gaining some fun perks, CHECK OUT THE PATREON!!!
As for this comic…
I am currently on a trip in a distant land. (Okay, it’s Quebec, and it was only a day’s drive.). But the trip forced me to get this comic done early last week, so I don’t even remember enough about the comic to comment on it.
At least there isn’t something big, colorful and wordy on it.
And hey! Comfy footwear is important for action!
Enjoy you French-speaking breth- and sistren! Bewear the Dougy!
Well, they were in Ontario at the time. Thankfully there are no such monsters in Quebec. Just actual bears.
Oh. Quicker drive then.
An Urkel shirt is metal gear solid?
Maybe MGS2. I could see Raiden rocking an Urkel shirt.
Okay, so the last two panels make Daphne look like the adult. I guess she has her business face on.
Also, while Bethany is not someone I would want to date, the incentive does suggests that doing so would have some perks.
He is dressed for comfort
Daphne is the adult when it matters.
I dress for “stealth is optional for this mission”.
Or “hacker formal”. Black hoodie and jeans.
Solid choice.
How ’bout wearing Daisy Dukes to this Dozy Duke Inn?
Now THAT is a good idea.
Sometimes the simple and elegant way of dress can truly surprise you in times like these.
Exactly. Keep it classy.
The best stealth outfit is an outfit that doesn’t look out of place. Research where you’re going, and dress like their cleaners. It’s surprising how often people ignore cleaners, especially the people who think they’re important.
True. It’s funny that the standard ‘ninja’ outfit has become encoded as a stealth icon, when in reality the ‘ninja’ getup was really just a typical outfit for peasants in Japan during the Shogunate. It’s not about dark colors and hoods and masks – it’s about looking unimportant.
The wisdom of the Sweeper.
. . . . . . . seems to me Tyler is Colin to Daphne’s Puck. The Circle of Life.
He’s smarter and less kooky. But there’s a resonance.
Less ridiculous.
Daphne’s flopped, disapproving ear is a nice contrast to Tyler’s self-satisfied grin.
Hate to say it, Daphne, but if you’re caught, Tyler is the one who’ll blend.
EXACTLY. Don’t look like a secret agent when you’re a secret agent!
Daphne promoting stealth…the girl who normally as subtle as a bulldozer.
There is a certain irony there…
If you told me Snake wears an Urkel shirt in one of the DLCs, I’d believe you.
I’m sitting here dressed for action stealth as I await the next comic.
Do you have snacks?
That is dedication.
Isn’t that usually called “pajamas?”
Looking forward to what the getaway vehicle will be . . . the A-Team, or the RV from Ben 10? Or something completely unexpected, the Nautilus from The Undersea Adventures of Captain Nemo? Please Please PLEASE, a shout-out to Captain Nemo, Christine and Robbie!
Maybe the dog van from Dumb & Duber
You’ll be disappointed if that’s what you’re waiting for.
Daphn’s style sense is even more intense than I thought. Now she’s transferring it to Tyle. LOL!
It spreads. Like the plague.
I wasn’t going to click the incentive for the month for the first time ever. I was thinking, Bethany? No, I’ll pass. Then I thought, it’ll help out so I clicked and then I said “WHOA!” Yes, click it, it’s for science.
I’m glad you clicked. For science.
Let’s hear it for glasses girls like Phoebe and Bethany! Yay!!!
Glasses are gud.
