    Tip won’t be happy in Kansas, therefore we can expect a counter-sally ASAP.
    May he find the Lady of Eternal Springs….(if I may mention Her)

    Save America? Is he serious? I guess that’s the joke. And what does he mean again? So it sounds like there’s a new pure Anasigma Skinhorse, I wonder if it the mandate means including both humans and nonhumans.

      *cough* Trump joke *cough*
      But in-universe, he’s probably referring to the previous war.

        Personally, I think he just equates doing horrible things to non-human sapients with “saving America.”

          Yes, it’s a Trump joke.

      “wipe out Kansas” and “those of us that live here”
      (Sorry about that!)

      Q: What’s the Matter with Kansas?
      A: It was wiped out by a rogue secret government agency.

        “What’s the Matter with Kansas?”
        Ask those few tortured souls who managed to escape.

      “Actually, it was quite literally that way to begin with…”

    Somehow I get the feeling that our rogue agents aren’t going to be happy with the kind of “work” Ira is planning on doing with the vulnerable sapients.

    The most vulnerable sapients are humans, correct?

      I thought humans were the most vulnerable game?

      I’d vote for Leo the lion as the most vulnerable sapient I know.

      I’d vote for the Silverfish, but they’re safely aboard Annex One, so they’re covered.

    BRGR: Sort of. The most vulnerable sapient I can think of in this is probably Phil (last seen in http://skin-horse.com/comic/todays-comic-720/). There’s a chance that someone would miss him if he went missing, though.

      Phil ended up at the Narbonic labs, though. The only thing he’ll be vulnerable to there are the Narbons themselves.

      Which… okay, maybe he really IS the most vulnerable sapient around… hrmm…

        I’m not thinking of his physical vulnerability. Helen & Dave aren’t willing or able to operate their island like a prison. It wouldn’t take too much to persuade Phil to build a raft and sail away from there. After that, who know what he could do?

          I’m not sure what makes you think that Helen and Dave are neither willing nor able to operate the island like a prison. Not all test subjects are willing captives, you know.

        Aren’t they hanging out with the Killbots?

          Alfie was XO on the Habakkuk, but I don’t know where Merope and Meg and the others went.

    Didn’t think Dr. Engelbright went in for that Men In Black look. Is that Echo Bravo with her?

      Probably. He seems to have “favored minion” status.

    Did anyone else hear that ominous musical sting in the fourth panel? The Wizard knows how to make things properly sinister.

    And this is why you don’t hire people out of spite.
