    Ignited, but unrequited. Tell me again, what’s so bad about these people? Again. Slower.

    It figures that the one time I actually call a plot-twist I don’t make bother to make my prediction publicly…

    It’s not the gay thing, it’s the Tip thing.(And no double entendres, you naughty people!)

    In the next strip, Trinity will walk up, escorting her prisoners (well, Unity’s body will be in a fireman’s carry and Dr. Lee will be carrying the head) and the A-team will lead our captured heroes to the whirlygig for transport and interrogation…

    BTW, the 4th. panel leaves no doubt that Tip has drawn Ted from hammerspace rather than Alice. More firepower! (I’d guess a Remington RP45 with 15+1 rounds of .45ACP under a 4.5″ barrel & tritium night sights).

      Wait aminute, who’s Ted? I thought Tip only had one pistol, his Colt Police Positive, Alice.

        Tip probably also has a Bob and a Carol, but he decided he didn’t need the heavy artillery at this point.

        Alice suffices for a roomful of werewolves but more stopping power is required for Trinity-class zombies.

        Let’s hope Tip never feels the need to deploy Carol or -shudder- Bob! They require makeovers using his Rambo/Commando outfits!

          If you carry a gun, don’t carry just one gun.

          … but… but now I want to see the Rambo/Commando outfits like BURNING. ;__; And the firepower!

      Still looks like a Glock to me. Maybe a 21 or 30, in .45 ACP, or a 22 or 23 in S&W .40.

    I love how Tip is genuinely delighted by his erstwhile enemies’ happiness!

    But shouldn’t that be “muzzle tov”? 🙂

      delighted *while* holding a gun on them. Good complex, multifaceted nuanced psychosocio-emotional psychobabel-based nerocapacity!

    I honestly think my brain just made a kind of SKRWKKKK! noise, like what you get when you jam on the brakes of a bicycle.

      You and Nick both. You can practically see his brain going into Blue Screen Of Death in the second panel.

        Yup. DENIAL, FULL SPEED AHEAD! Aw Nick, just accept that the Gay (or, more likely, the Bi) exists somewhere for you in an alternate universe and keep moving down that Dr. Lee Trail To Happiness. But don’t chase Tip. Just no.

          Actually, Nick’s BSOD is the result of his assumption that alt-Nick is married to alt-*Lee*, and all that it entails — only his wildest fantasies have gone *there* at this point. The “gay reveal” seems to have just sort of reset him to his default grumpy mode.

    Over at GoComics, someone made the comment that “collegue” is not a word.
    I told him it’s two legues at the same time.

      clearly, you are out of their league

      It’s a school of higher learning for collectors.
      (A combination of “college” + “legunt” – Latin for “collect”)

      Actually, in less rarefied circles, I believe it’s referred to as a “mistake.”

    No wonder Alt-Dr.-Lee thought Nick was cute. Probably all unrequited for her.

    Come to think of it, Nick didn’t go with them to the mirror universe. They did teach that alt-Nick how to snark and swear.

    So I guess in this group, when alt Nick was told by a troll “what are you, gay?” He simply said “yes”, and thus every single other difference between them came to be.
