Weren't they, like, just falling out of the sky in the last strip? And now everything's okay and all the plot points we should have seen are being summed up in bullet points in a single panel (except for how they escaped the falling city, naturally)? Jesus Christ, the author has to have the worst sense of pacing among anyone who's ever taken pen to paper in all of human civilization.

Can you imagine if other writers ended stuff like this? You're watching the Rebel leaders in Star Wars plan for the attack on the Death Star, then suddenly it just cuts to the medal ceremony and Luke says "drat, it's a good thing Han Solo returned and saved me from Darth Vader. Obi-Wan Kenobi returned as a ghost and told me to use the Force so I did and blew up the Death Star. That's why we're getting medals." Credits roll.

Didn't Harv take over for the House Computer and teleport the humans out in the last one? You can fault this strip on a lot of its flaws, but this point seemed at least slightly less cloudy than many of the other ones. For instance, why "our hero" is delivering an infodump to someone who went through everything he's describing with him.

drat you for making me think about Zachary Nixon Johnson. :argh:

I think it's mean to put collars animals in the first place. My first ferret went completely bald around his neck from his collar. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it was there, because that little monster could get into anything and anywhere and if it weren't for the bell I'd sit on the couch or turn the dryer on and kill him. I just felt bad about it from time to time.

So how much of the dialog in Mandrake is just question marks and exclamation points? Not just in this arc, like in general?
