    Try to make yourself as small as possible.

      It looks like there might be a handy bush nearby.

      Wrong robot. Sweetdaddy is still in the repair shop, otherwise he would definitely comply with that plan. And with greater groove than could be imagined from a droid his size.

    Reminds me of when I took fencing in college…turning sideways didn’t make me a smaller target in the least. (Also, I was too big for any of the fencing jackets, so I wore my winter coat and just got realllly good at parrying.)

      Using the mustaches to spring off?

    Having only just read yesterday’s strip, the fact that Anasigma may actually have Captain Bram worries me, although it’d explain why they were able to mimic him so well.

      They may just have gotten his technology from somewhere. It’s been established in the strip (here, among other places) that he’s dead.

      … Although of course that doesn’t mean they didn’t clone him or he didn’t fake his death or something.

        Though didn’t Helon Narbon’s mother survive an incident seemingly as final as “eaten by dogs”?

        Or they could have ‘imported’ another Captain Bram from an alternate reality/timeline.

    Keep absolutely still! Snipers’ vision is based on movement!

      Drop your body temperature to ambient! Snipers rely on infrared!

    Wait did we get tomorrows strip yesterday? I distinctly remember….. okay. So Mr. Janitor(I can never remember his name) jumps in from the right and then they discuss retaliation via hitting and biological weapons respectively.

      It was a brief error and has been fixed since.

    Must have been a time-warp, disturbance in the continuum, sunspots…

    Hitty was designed for the battle arena, bullets would probably bounce off. Moustachio is from the black powder era, though, modern weaponry might be too much for him.

      “The In-Laws” – great reference! Under-appreciated movie.

    I’m surprized no one has made a “rolling” joke

    I like how the snipers don’t shoot until after someone (who happened to be standing by an open door) mentions them. And then make a mess of it anyway.

    Offensive snipers mutter insults and slurs at their targets even as they squeeze the trigger. Defensive snipers just spend most of their time defending their life choices anytime they call home.

    I love how expressive Hitty’s face is, for two squiggles and a line.

    Well, here’s one reason Anasigma wanted Skin Horse: they wanted access to the files – and locations of the other madtech they’ve helped over the years.

    Just think linearly, Hitty. You’ll land flat.

    Just close your eyes. If you can’t see them then they can’t see you.
