I don't know whether to complain about the strip or use it as j/o material.

So at this point is it just assumed that Ray can mop up the dregs or do we have a few more good fights coming up?

That Onstad doesn't specify which contenders remain might be an indication that Beef is hanging around somewhere, watching...but I doubt it.  I'mma go dip my french fries in cowboy sauce, later y'all.

The sensation of speed with which Ray is CRAK CRAK CRAK'n is both undeniable and moving. Kind of Fist of the North Star.

This is not what I was expecting either, but then I was expecting a Swedish massage with "Happy Ending"; so you know, I guess it's an internal problem for me.


But yeah, I wanted the GOF to go on, and now, just maybe, I'm just wanting to see the end and where that leads mostly.  Mostly.

I like this one a lot actually. I can accept Ray's violence now thanks to the Feb 24 strip, and now I find it hilarious. I think this strip shows good comic timing. Also, I like the torso of the guy 3rd from the left in the first panel.

Looks like Ray can take James Hetfield given the right motivation.

Um, I am disappointed.  There is no plot development, and how many pictures can you look at of talking cats beating each other up?  Or is that just a girl problem?

At least now we know that Ray can just straight up whip somebody's ass Classic Style. It's not all elbow drops and face ripping, there's pummeling too.

And what did those guys expect walking around in such comical hats? Of course people are going to go around beating you up dressed like that.

I hate to complain, since the last two months straight have made me permamently like this comic, but todays just doesn't do it for me. If this is the start of one of those three-day Dutch fugues ("Gin: It Makes a Man Mean"), it's not particularly vivid. Nobody's mouth is foaming, you know? I was picturing the "Requiem for a Dream" pupil scene and everything. (That said, I like the expressions on Tiny, Beard, and Ribcage in panel three.)

Tomorrow! The final showdown!

I like the fact that "cowboy sauce" is carried into the narration from Ray's dialogue -- authentic! And I also like the visual of Ray flying through the air to tackle "fine cakes and city-wine" guy (cowboy, or Conan the Barbarian? the world may never know), complete with suspended cowboy hat.

My question is: who's left? Do we have a few lone wolves and Ray's posse? If so, are we going to be greeted tomorrow by nine panels of Ray making Barry Best eat his own intestines?
